Dirt on Dogs

The Dirt on Dogs

This is a fun little film that I made for the National Film Board of Canada. The film was animated in Flash and co-directed with Sheldon Cohen.  The concept was to do a film with a checklist of things you need to ask yourself before getting a dog. Music was composed by Zander Ary. The movie is part of a dog run theme portal at NFBkids.ca.  Flash is required to view the movie below.

Moose of la Mancha

Moose of La Mancha

This film was directed by Sheldon Cohen and produced by PMA Productions.  I used After Effects and Flash for the final animation. This story is about an unusual cast of characters trying out for the lead roles in the famous Broadway play, Man of La Mancha.  Set to the ever-popular theme song ‘The Impossible Dream’ by Allan Jones.

Here is the opening to the film, approx. 30 secs.

Lunchbox

Lunchbox.

This is my first Flash animation. I’m still fond of it for its simplicity and straight forward premise. This film was also showcased on the website: http://www.chezhuguette.com. Lunchbox was written, animated and produced by Greg Houston.

Unleashed

Unleashed.

Unleashed is a fun rock video parody of Dogs turning on their masters. The music is based on U2, with Zander Ary doing a terrific Bono impression. Concept was created by Sheldon Cohen. Animation was done completely in Flash. Click the start button in the bottom right corner of the animation.
