		<title>NPC&#8217;s Bumper Part Deaux</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My friend and fellow filmmaker, Jonathan London, is busy trying to launch a new L.A.-based web-series called &#8220;N.P.C.&#8217;s&#8221; (that&#8217;s Non-Playable Characters for all you noobs out there). He asked me to help him out by making an animated bumper for the show&#8217;s intro. My initial try came off as too &#8220;dark and serious&#8221; for a [...]]]></description>

		<title>More fun with Cinema 4D</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Keeping my experimentation with 3-D animation and modeling alive, a friend asked me to build a bumper for his upcoming web-series. The result was a faux video-game graphic piece that combined Cinema 4D and After Effects.  The result looked pretty cool&#8211;though he eventually passed on the bumper, and we&#8217;re currently working on a different, &#8220;less-polished&#8221; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beyond the Still</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Long time&#8230;no post. Sorry about that, folks. A while ago I heard about a collaborative video contest between Canon and Vimeo called &#8220;Beyond the Still,&#8221; where entrants were given a starting still image and then had to make a short movie from that initial visual point. Basically it&#8217;s like a collaborative game of telephone, except [...]]]></description>
