“Roadkill Redemption” by Karl Hadrika

A nighttime driver is haunted by the ghost of a raccoon she hits with her car. A bittersweet comedy poking fun at the fragility of life and the consequences of careless driving.

“Haring” by Davor Bujakovic & Junaid Chundrigar

Haring tells the tale of Diederik, a guy who makes the mistake of eating a herring right before a date. When he finds out his fishy breath destroys everything in its path, he does his best to get rid of the smell, while also trying to reach his date in time.

Haring was made with the collaboration from the Netherlands Film Fund, SNS Reaal and Pathé and was made for the 2014 UltraKort program. The film screened in front of Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” in all Dutch Pathé cinemas. It was made using TVPaint.

What is your name and your current occupation?
Dave Redl.  Gun for hire cartoonist/animator/animation director and for corporate America, “New Media Director” (which means I make stuff move on computers.)

 


What are some of the crazier jobs you had before getting into animation?
I worked in construction building low income housing in Newark NJ where I saw a 10 year old strip an abandoned car under a minute while nailing up roofing shingles.  I worked in a garden center that was struck by lightning and crashed a golf cart used to transport flats of geraniums because I was listening to Led Zeppelin on my Walkman.  I worked a night shift at a factory loading clothes onto trucks with a dude named Steve, also a Zeppelin fan, who proudly showed me a corner in the rafters that was hidden from security cameras, perfect for naps and complete with a potato sac bed.  Unfortunately, I split before solving the mystery of which restroom was used by fellow co-worker, “Roberto” who had ridiculously enormous and feminine breasts.

What are some of your favorite projects you’re proud to have been a part of?
All of them.  If they put food on the table and made my boss happy… I was proud of them.  Not every gig you get looks good, possibly due to “tweaking” or “corporate politics” so you must find pride in doing what you can with what you got.  For example, I was Layout Animation Supervisor, where I drew nothing for a TV show canceled during production!  But the people I worked with had kind things to say.  That left me proud of being a good boss even though I have nothing on my reel to show for it.

 

How did you become interested in animation?
For as long as I can remember.  But growing up on The Smurfs, I preferred

THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME: 90 ORIGINAL CONCEPT ART COLLECTION

hunchback-notre-dame-ca47-1024x756

When you think about it, The Hunchback of Notre Dame is a true animated masterpiece from an animation standpoint. The amazing Disney team managed to turn what was supposed to be a hideous deformed hunchback into an endearing hero that we all rooted for. The songs I could have done without but it also had some truly beautiful dancing animation (in front of a HUGE crowds no less) making it an exceptional 2d animation masterpiece in my mind. Anyway, here’s 90 pieces of art from the film the Hunchback of Notre Dame! Enjoy!
