Sloth is sin. I haven't posted anything since last school break! Here's an update.
Well, I didn't land a dream job in California, but that's okay! I'm back in my hometown for the summer teaching animation and media at the Intel Computer Clubhouse (a community center that provides free access to computers for kids all over the world). How awesome is that?
Also, I did get to be an illustrator for the Stanford Graphic Novel project last quarter. It was amazing! The novel is called Pika-Don, and it's based on the true story of Tsutomu Yamaguchi, one of the few people to survive both atomic bombings at ground zero. Not only did Mr. Yamaguchi survive, he also went on to spend the rest of his life promoting peace, teaching children, and eventually addressing the UN. I really hope that our novel will help forward the cause that he left behind.
(I penciled and inked this picture!) ^
We sent the novel off to the presses in June. I'm supposed to be getting my copy soon (yay! there will be pictures!). Anyway, the post production team has been working hard to get the website up, and they can explain the project far better than I can.
Also...
This summer I got recruited to help illustrate a book by Chris Kientz, the creator of the animated series Raven Tales! The book involves Manhattan, vinyl, and abominable snowmen. That's all I can say for now--stay tuned for more very vague, cloak-and-dagger updates, if you feel so inclined :P
Thanks for reading, and Happy Independence Day!
