5th Anniversary of my student commercial project for my UCF class. Edited down to make it shorter like a true commercial, but also added Credits.

Cow On The Roof Productions

A production company i have started with my friend Lavalle Lee McGuirk with the hope to create original animated films. "Cow on the Roof" name comes from an inside joke i had been pulling on friends over the years. Along Bumby Ave. in Orlando, Florida is a TG Lee milk factory, where a cow sits high on the roof. Driving past i would shout and exclaim in awe & amazement there's a "Cow on the roof" ...... It never gets old :) my good friend Celeste Cronrath lend her creative talents to creating our logo, in the vain of the dawn of animation style.

My original sketch below

Masters of Animation!- Ted Kierscey

Firebird from Fantasia 2000

One of my all time favorite Artist Ted Kierscey was interviewed on the TAG Blog. I suggested to them that an interview of an EFX animator was long over do... & Ted was the one i wanted to hear his story. One of the masters of Effects animation. He should be a household name with other Disney greats like of Glen Keane, Eric Goldberg or Andreas Deja. Over 41 years with Disney creating the beautiful Special effects in the classic animated films of my life.
