  • I learned about Crank Balls because these specific characters in this video are featured all over NYC subway ads for the Brooklyn Art Museum. Congrats.

    Didn't even know what it was until googling, but now I see you are a spectacularly talented animator. So much deceptive detail in your work. Bravo.

  • Any decent art supply or craft store should carry plastacine in different colors. It’s oil-based non-drying clay that is perfect for animation.

  • This is soo cute!!! I love it!!!

  • I love this video!!! It is sooo cute!!!!

  • This video is soo cute! I love it!!!

  • Applause! Applause! Bravo! That's some totally fantastic animation right there! I love the fact that I watch it with really no idea how you manged to do it. It's classic stop motion alright but, you've given it a bouncy weightlessness, smoothness and personality uncommonly great for the medium. More Applause! Applause! Bravo! :)

  • That's some awesome and funky-fun stop motion! Great character expressions!

  • Love your work. What song is that? it sounds so familier.

  • hey man, this is GREAT!

    i love the detail of folds in the skin as i too have a passion for this type of animation and many other types as well. how do you your teeth? made of white plasticine or what ever clay you use?

  • the teeth are oven-bake clay, and the puppets are plastacine.

    Thanks for the interest in the film.

  • Just saw your short Crank Balls at the Los Angeles Red Cat Theater. LOVE IT!!!!! Where can I buy a copy????

  • I'm glad you enjoyed my film, thanks so much! Currently, there is no release plan for Crank Balls, as it is still circulating in festivals. Eventually, a good full-length version will be online.

    Thanks again for the interest!

  • hey can you upload the valentine one from the website jibjab? Where the cute yellow clay ball get's the apple thrown in his face!

  • Thanks for your interest in the Valentine spot. I made the piece through JibJab, and so they own the screening rights, but you can always view it on the "Valentine's Sendables" page of their website. (more movies to come!!)

    Thanks again!

  • great!

  • I went to school with you, long, long ago. I was hoping to find your claymations! I did, I did. Looks like you are doing well. I just did a crude but fun claymation with my Art Appreciation class. Peace-Miles

  • I just got back from watching "Crank Balls" at the Sprockets Film Festival here in Toronto, and it was the BEST FILM WE SAW! I laughed soooooo hard. Brilliant!

  • Sooo good. Best animation I've seen in a long time, way to go.

  • wow that was extremely well done stop motion. Very nice! im surprised you haven't gotten many views..keep up the great work!

  • AWESOME!
