GI JOE STOP MOTION!

NO, it's not Robot Chicken! It's a stop motion I'm creating for the 4th Annual GI Joe Stop Motion Film Festival based in Denver Colorado. I started creating it in conjunction with an ASIFA-Colorado workshop we delivered as part of this year's festival. Anyone who has ever used a computer to complete a complicated task should know how this hapless character feels!

Adventures in Medical Stop Motion: The Workshop!

Here are the results of a successful stop motion workshop I delivered to the Association of Medical Illustrators 2010 conference in Portland, Oregon. Pay particular attention to the first animation where a surgical towel comes to life after an ill fated suture accident. This was a collaboration with Dr. Max Maizels of the Childrens Memorial Hospital in Chicago. We are experimenting in creating an animation that would teach good knot tying and suture habits. Others who participated in the workshop include Medical Illustration professionals and students.
