CJC’s Animation Blog

Back in December 2010, we started work on a new animation project (in collaboration with Waterman Studios) for ReDigi - The world’s first recycled digital music marketplace.

The style and nature of this project was definitely new to us. It required a lot of experimenting and new techniques in order to pull off. You will be able to find a full write-up on the project on CJC Labs, once it’s back up and running.

We’ve recently finished producing (in collaboration with Waterman Studios) our very first commercial bound project, which aired on ESPN earlier this month! The commercial is for an iPhone App known as SkateHub (your source for everything skateboarding). Check it out!

Check out this very cool storyboard animatic.

For the last three weeks, CJC Entertainment and Waterman Studios have been hammering away at the first two minutes of “The Waterman Movie” starring comedic legend Leslie Nielsen.  It is with great pleasure to finally be able to show you this clip!

These two minutes were created in an effort to raise the funds needed for production of the entire movie. If you are interested in contributing and helping to bring this dream to reality, head on over to www.watermanstudios.com!

Our latest animation project entitled Twelve A.M. was announced the winner of the ToonTube’s “Animation of the Month” contest today, making it two times in a row that we’ve managed to earn the award!

A million thanks again to ToonTube and everyone who voted!

So I created an account on this interesting animation community based website www.toontube.toonlifeonline.com a few months ago, and submitted a few of our animation projects to get our account rolling. It’s been a few months since I’ve visited the site, but I was checking it out the other day, and noticed a post that read, “Everything Animated wins Aug/Sept contest.” Out of curiosity, I click on the link to view the full post, and sure enough, there was a video of our MyToons bumper.

Not only is that awesome, but it’s kind of ironic too. The animated bumper that we created for a different contest (which didn’t make it past the first round) ended up winning anyway! Sweet!

Million thanks to ToonTube and everyone who voted!

Back in early 2008, we participated in a small animation competition where we had to develop a 30 second commercial bumper for the website mytoons.com. We didn’t win, but it was a fun project to work on, and a great experience. The mytoons site doesn’t exist anymore (as the company recently went out of business), but it was great while it lasted!

Anyway, here is our first entry into that competition.

Being new to this blogging community, I figured the first thing I’d do is say hello and welcome any and all readers. So… hello and welcome! I’m still feeling my way around and figuring out how everything works, so it may take me a second before I have this fully up and running.

For now, I leave you with our first demoreel, which contains some of the work we’ve done over the past few years. The demoreel itself was created sometime last year (2008). The soundtrack also created by us.
