DJ & FRO


DJ and Fro from mike Carlo on Vimeo.

Back in May AL "Electric Boogaloo" Pardo was working on a pilot for the FX channel. Al was nice enough to throw some work my way, and here is a scene I animated for that project. The pilot was Called "DJ & FRO", and in my opinion it was pretty good. I had a lot of fun working on it... Probably the most fun I've had in a long time working in New York animation. It was hard work, and a tight deadline. This scene took me 5 days to animate, and clean up. It was also nice to work with Al again, as well as some other good friends of mine. I had a little help with the clean up from Gary Doodles, who helped me bring this to completion, and handled the lip sync. We all worked under Mark Marek, who did all the boards and directing. The show ultimately was dropped, and FX opted for a reality show instead... because T.V. needs more reality shows. Please enjoy.

Union Squares


Hipsters suck! Here is a post based on some observational sketches I did in union square. Feeling really inspired by New York lately.
