GRAPHIC DESIGN
Our company (my wife and I) launched our v2 website just last month, and the response seems positive. While it has confused some of our original clients, newer clients have generally commented on the navigation to be helpful, distilled, and intuitive. Lucky for us, JqueryTools works wonders for consolidating space. We also landed 2 large clients, one corporate, one entertainment, which has allowed us to keep our awesome employee Chelsea until, at least, February of 2011 ... with high hopes that we can keep her on indefinitely.

ACTING
The show I'm in, Weekend at an English Country Estate has received some very positive press (from CBS Radio and NYtheater.com). The wonderful ladies of Ateh, are freakin' hilarious raunchy geniuses. And any opportunity to work with Paul Urcioli is one to cherish. The cast is drama-free, with old and new friends just doing what we love to do for New York audiences... so, not much more to report there.

ANIMATION (part 1)
Three Rings is a bi-coastal video game development company. Puzzle Pirates, Bang!Howdy/Heros, and Whirled are what they are currently best known for. Before coming to NG, I was a staple member of the Whirled community, and had an awesome time learning all about Flash and the basics of animating characters. It's been almost half a year since I left, but I was once again commis$ioned to create an original item for their subscription base (Club Whirled members). And while I'm only linking to a half finished preview of the item, it seems to be getting a fairly nice response. To view all the avatars actions/states and configurable options: just click the Turkey ... you'll figure it out if you care.

ANIMATION (part 2)
All private projects aside ... the Dub Collab has slowed down a bit, but is still in solid shape. From what has been submitted, the project is a funky wild ride :D My other personal collab, the Creaturing Project is also moving along. I received the artwork from the kids of Woodinville Montessorri and I must say, "they iz gud at draws." For 1-6 graders, I'm blown away. Any artist signing up is gonna have their work cut out for them.

In other news, it looks like the omgZombie collab requires one more piece from each artist. And my Space Ghost collab piece has remained at half-completed ever since I got hired for the Whirled avatar gig... one day at a time.

THE BLUES
Well, with the show, work, animating this thingy for Whirled, and juggling the collabs ... I haven't really gotten any personal animation time... that said, our show closes on the 31st of this month, the Club Whirled avatar is due by the 1st of November, and a number of clients should be off my list shortly thereafter ... I'm really loving animating shorts and would really love to get much better. Watching people like Hulaloo grow leaps and bounds every week is making jealous ... Time in a bottle. Meh.
