Looking Through The B-Sides

November 3rd, 2008 . by joe

Last year I had the pleasure of spending most of my time with the guys at Golden Lucky working on their short film “Looking Through The B-Sides” for FUEL TV. I was involved with lead compositing, 2D animation, color correction, editing, pre-visualization, and some stop motion assistance. The film is currently making its way around the world in various short film festivals. Check out Golden Lucky’s site for more info. Thanks to Saiman, Sean, and Chad for bringing me on board..it was definitely the most awesome project I’ve ever gotten to work on.
