He's Barack Obama Come To Save The Day-eee-ay

This video is amazing. Jib Jab has really advanced in their image capture process. I really like the exagerated character design especially the stretchy limbs of Obama. This video is hilarious. Well done Jib Jab.

Limited U.S. Release of Brendan and the Secret of Kells!!!


Earlier this morning Tomm Moore, director of Secret of Kells, sent me the following message on Facebook...

"We have finally secured limited distribution in theatres Stateside, ... and I hope you can help organise some kind of grassroots interest and encourage anyone you know to go along when it screens in LA early in the New Year."

This is really exciting news! Check in later for more details as they come. Don't forget to spread the word and when the New Year hits- GO SEE THE FILM!!!

My Latest Sketches

These are a few quick sketches I've done over the last few days. Sometimes I miss having live models to draw from. For this reason I'm looking forward to the next LA Sketch Crawl on July 11th.

Leonardo Trailer from jim Capobianco on Vimeo.

Keep it locked on the Leonardo blog for info on film festivals featuring this film.

Monster Safari Headed For Theaters!!

I can't tell you how excited I am to announce that LA based Screen Novelties are creating a feature length film. This film will be based on their short titled Monster Safari. Craig Zobel and Matt Chapman, of Homestarrunner.com fame, will be providing the script, and the Jim Hensen Co will be involved with the production of this piece of stop motion eye candy.

Check out the Monster Safari blog for a few more images. I love their cartoonish character design. This project looks like a lot of fun, and I wish I was working on it. In fact, I'm headed over to their web site right now to see if there are any openings...
