Monster Menagerie

Okay, I went to the biggest monster convention on the west coast: Monsterpalooza!  April 9-11, in Burbank California.  Here’s the thing: I promised to do a write up for my blog, however, I wrote a big report and submitted it to Scary Monsters magazine.  Dennis Druktenis, the Publisher and Editor-in-Chief, is considering printing my article!  So, if I posted it all here, wouldn’t I be scooping the magazine that I want to be published in?

I can say that it was a very good show! I really en...

The new 3-D movies promise audiences with an enhanced entertainment experience, but some are just finding it just annoying.  There are between 2% and 12% of the population that can’t see 3-D due to blindness in one eye or mild binocular disorder.  Some people will leave from screenings early because of headaches and dizziness.

Sure the 3-D effects were amazing in Avatar, but after all the pizzazz you’re left with a weak plot.  3-D didn’t help with the storytelling.

Right now, there ...

Monsterpalooza the biggest West Coast Monster Con will be held in Burbank, California on April 9^th through 11^th, 2010.  For more information go to www.rubberromm101.com .  This will be great!  The Chaney family will be there and many other monster and horror guest.  All of the vendor tables sold out months ago!

New Exclusive Animation!

I just uploaded a new video in the Monster Tube area of this site!  It’s called “Savings To Die For”.  If you notice that the tutorial for the self-checkout stand at the grocery store uses CGI figures from the program called “Poser”.   Since I’ve been using Poser for my animations I thought it would be funny to make my own tutorial of a person buying things to do away with an unwanted house guest!  Watch carefully and listen to what she’s buying…

Welcome!  I’ve been getting a lot of new visitors to this site and I want to extend a hardy hand shake!  One reason that new visitors have been directed to the site is that I’ve been posting my videos to every file sharing site that I can find!  The one with the most traffic (is NOT Youtube) is Metacafe.  I got more hits in one hour than I did on Youtube in two months!  Also I’ve been calling myself the “Proprietor of Monster Menagerie” whenever I’ve made a comment on other sites ...

I just finished another video!  This one is called “Ghost Stories” (can be seen in the Monster Tube area).  The video is a collection of theme-driven clips that I made, involving ghost.  There’s a recreation of the hallway scene from The Shining (come play with us Danny, forever and forever and forever).  I also made one scene from Poltergeist.   I’m not completely satisfied with the outcome, but some clips came out better than expected while others…

I used Poser 3 to make the clip...

New Celebrity Zombies!

I loaded new Celebrity Zombies on this site and I made another slideshow video (here and on Youtube.com.  Jennifer Anistion, Sarah Jessica Parker, Mathew Brodrieck, Jennifer Garner, Keira Knightly, Sacha Baron Cohen, Zac Efron, Ben Affleck and Mathew McConaughey! 

Meet the freaks!

So I changed the name of the “Celebrity Skinless” section to “Celebrity Zombies”.  When I explained to people what the section was about they didn’t get the parody.  I would have to go: you see, there’s this magazine called “Celebrity Skin” and I have “Celebrity Skinless” where the celebrities are zombies… get it?

I think that “Celebrity Zombies” says it all. 

Speaking of which: I’ve added Johnny Depp and Christian Bale.  More to come!  Keep checking back!  Book...
