Much Music Promo from Rawls on Vimeo.
This video is my most recent work for Much Music. Just a 30 second promo that was done relatively quick, but very fun to work on and I think it turned out pretty nice. The guys at Much supplied all the imagry and text, and all I needed to do was animate it all and add the special touches and details.
This sketch I did really quick a couple of days ago for a forum challenge on CGHub.
And lastly, a new UP trailer is online now. Check it out.

    Holy Crap, it's the Hulk of Hoops. Even Lebron would be scared of this guy. Great pick! Do you use photoshop or illustrator to color your images? Looks awesome.

    JA! Thanks everyone!!!
    Joe - I use Photoshop most of the time to finish up any of my 2d art. I don't ever use illustrator. If I do any vector art it's usually in Flash.
