FESTIVAL PHILLIP

PHIILIP th SAFETY EGG will be screening at the Brainwash Movie Festival in Oakland CA on Saturday 8.14.2010. If you are in or around Oakland and enjoy cartoons about safety, walking bacon and a chicken's anus, please show your support for Phillip and for Brainwash.

The New York Times says the Brainwash Movie Festival pirat[es] a piece of that old Hollywood magic and challeng[es] conventions on the role of public space in the process.

“We project movies onto a tarp in West Oakland,” counters festival director Shelby Toland.

FILM FESTIVAL PHILLIP!

PHILLIP the SAFETY EGGtis making its way across North and Central America.
Still waiting for confirmation from a few more entered festivals and discovering new places to send this egg.

If you find yourself in any of these cities on any these dates, go watch PHILLIP on the big screen.

The Johnstown Festival was a small event in my hometown in Western

Pennsylvania. I was not able to attend the screening but I'll assume my
parents were very proud to see all of that college tuition going toward a
cartoon involving a chicken's anus

We are are on the verge of wrapping our first collaboartion project for his company Vaudeville Studios. A 3-D animated short that may land Vaudeville a series of episodes. Its been challenging to direct from the other side of the world and to learn the 3D production pipeline, but the team of artists and animators are quick learners and dedicated to improving their craft. More as this progresses.
