Artist | Student | Film & Animation

I'm currently a student at the Savannah College of Art & Design in Savannah, Georgia (USA). My major is Animation and my minor is Storyboarding. I've still got about a year to go before I graduate, so I've decided to work on some other personal projects in the meantime.

My main focus for DeviantArt will be my experiments with Adobe Flash using characters from the popular television series My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. These experiments are currently divided into two parts, the first being illustrative/background training through my ongoing storybook The Ballad of Mecha Pinkie Pie. The second being short animations featuring different characters from the show to teach me puppet animation. So far I've released one animation, Present Prank, with the second one, Double Rainboom, the first-ever fan-made episode, scheduled for release on March 30th, 2013.

I'm 26 years old, and my ultimate dream is to write & direct my very own animated television series! My first Senior Film right now is Double Rainboom, but my next Senior Film (which will enter preproduction starting April 2013) will be a much darker story set in the Star Wars Universe.

Other than that, feel free to add me to your watch lists for some epic pony madness! ^^

Howdy everypony! :iconbummiesplz:

The time has come for action! It's been over a month since my film Double Rainboom released and it still hasn't made it to Cartoon Brew!

Let's put it there!

If you want to help out and show these guys what bronies can do when we unite, then head on over to cartoonbrew ([link]) and scroll through the entries until you find Double Rainboom's submission. Then cast your three votes and tell your friends!

On a different note, I'll be announcing here soon my plans for my next project. I promise it'll be even bigger and better than my last one! So stay tuned!

Thanks everyone!

Umm... I'm very sorry if I'm bothering you in any way... I'd just like to show you an animation I made with your Double Rainboom Flash puppets. Yep, all credit is there and everything, no worries.

So... here it is [link] it's alright if you don't respond, or even look at it, my friends kept telling me to show you because they knew you'd like it but I'm not so sure, so uh.. yeah, sorry for bothering you, bye.

When i try to use a puppet in flash (this is my first time with puppets so it's probably a stupid amateur mistake) when i go into the folder for mouths for example and choose the one i want to use it doesnt save on the main layers, I don't know how to make it do that xD

Also when i change a body part in one keyframe, it changes it in all the other keyframes. I don't know how to make it now do this, so i figured i'd ask XD

He had people from SCAD review it a lot. He edited it based on feedback enormously. :)

Hey Zach,

Just wondering if you think you perhaps could spare a few minutes maybe drawing the rest of Sugarcube corner? Just maybe after this wrap up for DR. Loved it by the way, They way you mixed PPG and MLP. GENIUS.
