Rest in Peace my Friend....

It is with great sadness that I write this past Saturday, Pres Romanillos passed away.    He was surrounded by family, friends, and his wife Jeannine at his house....it appears he knew his time was short and he wanted to get out of the hospital and spend time with loved ones.   He was able to attend his art auction, and I know he was touched by the outpour of generosity by all his friends and partners in the animation industry...   Pres was 47 years old.....  Too young to be writing this sort of entry...    You will be missed Pres...

DO...DAH...DIPPEDDY

Do I love this Video?   Sweet Geezus yes...   Where do I begin?  Haven't heard the Black Sheep since I was in college...  Eating lunch in the student center while watching Yo! MTV Raps....good times.    Love the animation.....really subtle stuff in there.    If I had to guess....it looks like maybe CG Hamster head and hand replacements, over top of actors with oversized clothes...   I think some of the full body Hamsters in the back are all CG, and possibly the Hoochie Hamster girls dancing...  Its really well done how ever they did it.....great integration....at least here on YouTube.   Do yourself a favor, and watch it full size on YouTube in HD.   Enough jibba-jabba...  Onto the show....
