Time for the obligatory year-end navel-gazing…

Major developments:

1. No new movies were released this year, but it was still pretty darn busy. Break Time battled blizzards and tight deadlines to show off at the 2007 Omaha Film Festival and 2007 South Dakota Film Festival, to much acclaim and applause and whatnot. And for a brief time, I had an actual movie groupie stalk me at OFF ‘07 til she finally realized I wasn’t the director of One Rat Short after all. Ahh, well, easy come, easy go…

2. We moved from the scary gun-toting neighborhood to the peaceful gun-toting country, trading in police standoffs for evil owls hunting us. I can safely say selling a house is as enjoyable as shoving a burning cactus through my colon. On the positive side, I finally got a room for myself and my studio toys. No more do I have to share my creative space with the cat’s stinky litter box in the basement, for which the cat is grateful…

Other than that, life was pretty normal these past twelve months. Now that the earth has stopped shaking (or at least slowed down enough to let me stagger over to the drawing table), I’ve been hard at work doing what I love doing most: drawing silly pictures and making silly animations.

Life is good…

Have a GREAT New Year!

Surprise!  Betcha didn’t see that one coming, didya?

So, here’s the scoop:  I’ve switched the site over to WordPress for my blogging/content-management slavework, and moved my website from Powersurge to BlueHost (more disk space, more bandwidth, less money).  Right now everything is chaotic and screwy, and I have no idea what I’m doing, where all my files are, etc., but I’m hoping things will settle in the next few days so I can get back to making movies…

I know what you’re thinking.  “Ummm, ’scuse me, you just changed the site not three months ago — are you a flippin’ idiot or something????” 

Yes.  Yes, I am.  This should not come to a shock to anyone who knows me…

I am forever cursed with the need to constantly fiddle and fudge with things that are perfectly fine the way they are.  Fortunately, with WordPress I can torture and mutate the appearance of the site to my black-as-coal heart’s content, without even needing to touch the blog entries, links, all that good stuff.  So, I’m happy…

To access the movies, check out the menu under ‘Movies’.  No new additions yet… sorry!

Clip-art is coming soon…
