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…

 

New Calendar Ghoul!

I also made my first completely computer generated monster for this month’s Calendar Ghoul.  This is a werewolf in honor of the upcoming Universal Pictures’ The Wolf Man!  I made my own werewolf by combining two Poser figures: a dog and a man.  I had to do some adjustments to make it work –but I think the end result worked out well.  I used an older version of Poser (3).  I tried to keep the tail –but that didn’t work out!

Mr. Smith Goes to the Eyeglass Shop!

Going through my copy of the book Alien Creatures (1978 by Jean-Claude Suarès and Richard Siegel) I found an autograph that I stored next to a picture of Jonathan Harris.

My wife was working in an optometrists shop in 1990 when the actor from Lost in Space walked in for a fitting.  She said that he was very nice and was happy to provide the personalized autograph.  I just scanned it and posted it along with a picture of Mr. Harris.  You can find it in the Morgue Files section!

That’s not that last of the newspaper clippings and other artifacts that I stuck in that book!  More to come…
