IN THE YEAR 199X

IN THE YEAR 199X: A 90's Anime Tribute Show
Calling all Anime fans! In the Year 199X is a celebration of Japanese animation in the 1990’s, curated by your favorite senpais Zoë Moss & Jacob Strick. Join us as we unveil the works of over 90 artists in celebration of their all-time favorite anime influences.

Kids who grew up in the 90’s know it as the decade where anime found its crossover appeal in the West. It might have been on Toonami or on a bootleg VHS, but you were watching shows like Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon and Cowboy Bebop — not to mention some classic cinema like Ghost in the Shell, Perfect Blue and Princess Mononoke. Whether you prefer dubs or subs – or Digimon to Pokémon – prepare yourself for the most animetastic tribute to 90’s Japanese cartoons!

When: July 3rd, 2015 from 7 to 11 PM
Where: Meltdown Comics inside Nerdist Showroom
7522 Sunset Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90046

Bojack Horseman

HEY! I got something to say!

A super cool announcement: I’m a character designer on “Bojack Horseman”! This is an unbelievable dream come true for me since I’ve wanted to be a full time character designer for a very, very long time. I can’t even begin to say how awesome this project is! Well, maybe I can give you a hint: It’s style is based on Lisa Hanawalt’s work and stars Will Arnett, Aaron Paul, and Amy Sedaris. How’s that for FREAKING AWESOME?

The show is being produced at Shadow Machine and the show is being made for Netflix. You can find out more about Bojack here.

I’m still in disbelief about this gig and unbelieveably thankful. What a cool way to ring in the new year, no?
