"Man Man" nominated for pilot award

Two for two! "Man-Man", the animated short I worked on recently, has been selected for the New York Independent Pilot Competition. Here's the announcement:

Escape Pod Films is proud to announce that its animated pilot, Man-Man is an official selection in the 2009 New York Television Festival Independent Pilot Competition. Written and directed by Chris Prine and Tom Silvestro, the series tells the story of Population City's lousiest superhero: Man-Man.

Animation Screening

Huzzah! Huzzah! The animated short I worked on for Tabletmag.com called "Not If You Were the last Panda on Earth!" was selected for screening at the New York Television Festival. I did the characters and backgrounds for the short -- it's part of a series called "God & Co." This one features Jonathan Katz, of "Dr. Katz" fame, doing the voice of God. You can see the clip up on Tabletmag.

Brooklyn Book Fair

On November 17, I attended the Brooklyn Museum Book Fair in my dear hometown. It was a lot of fun meeting kids and showing them Comics To Go and my drawings. I also gave a short demo on how to create characters and make comics. It was really a blast. Click below to see pictures of the fair.
