New animation from Flaming Medusa: Wookie Slows it Down

Check out this awesome animation by local animator Tom Beuerlein at Flaming Medusa Studios!

Ruff Ruffman in Cincinnati

We are very happy to announce that a project we have been working on with WGBH Boston, for PBS KIDS, has launched!

Ruff Ruffman stars in these YouTube-friendly, animated comedy shorts called Ruff Ruffman: Humble Media Genius, in which he shares information about media and technology. This brand new resource from PBS also provides families and teachers with important information for our ever-changing digital lives.

The series has been spearheaded by Senior Executive Producer, Bill Shribman and EMMY-winning writer Gentry Menzel, has been funded as a pilot project by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and was produced by Cincinnati's Flaming Medusa Studios Inc.

Watch them Here! And share some pretty art here :)

Another Lunch Puppet Slam and Jerry's giant Arthur's Sketch

This is the original sketch for the mural at Arthur's

Last week at Arthur's, Jerry brought his original sketch. I could not get him and Pam both in the picture without going over the patio ledge.

 Pam also brought a new puppet. This time a spider modeled by Tom Beuerlein.

Great lunch and a lot of cool art was shown!

Next week is at Slatts Pub. BYOP!

Tom does puppet improv

'Tis the season for giving... and also for saying thank you for a great year.

The University of Cincinnati Athletic Department came to us at Flaming Medusa Studios because they needed an animated holiday card that would both thank their donors and also give them the opportunity to include UC Athletics in their holiday giving. So we made this! We got to animate their old mascots too- this was a pretty cool project. I also got to do some actionscripting!
