Is the Dan Trachtenberg in this episode of awesome art usage the same Dan Trachtenberg responsible for the Portal-themed short film "Portal: No Escape" ? youtube.com/watch?v=4drucg1A6Xk
@jho3000 That's him. Looks like his career could be about to explode from the success of that great short! I met him while he was shooting something on that stage behind Hammer one day, very nice guy.
After further discussion of the "artwork" in this piece I feel the need to add some clarification. The background art is merely an adaptation of the existing "fail whale" art designed by Yiying Lu. Full credit of the design should go to her. The adaptation was built from scratch and fully customized to fit the TRS logo. With the TRS guys' active use of Twitter it seemed an appropriate theme for one of their backgrounds.
