I'm Spartacus!

A short two page comic I did. Was inspired by Lynda Barry's "Marlys" comic strips.

I used to eat astronaut ice cream...

but I never finished building that NASA space shuttle model because it required paint, glue, and elbow grease. I didnt have none of that..only lego skills.

Annecy 08

.

Me and Olga went on an amazing trip this past June. My student film, Key Lime Pie, was selected for competition in Annecy, which gave me an excuse to pack my bags and check out France for a week. Ive posted some pics and sketches from my trip.

My film's screening in La Grand Salle.

For a moment I forgot how to spell Annecy..I had to write it down three times with varying amounts of "N's" and "C's", and eventually some sort of visual trigger went off and I was able to circle the correct spelling. I was so proud of myself..

Tony

On the way home, this man was escorted off our plane by federal agents. They spent 20 minutes cleaning his seat afterwards. It was odd.
I swear these two were clones. They were looking at softcore porn on the plane and were quite comfortable doing so. It was humbling.

Back in NY...

in rainbows..

saw radiohead live a week ago...one of the highlights of my summer.

I got to see this..

Getting to know the Brooklyn Bridge.

A few weeks ago I spent my Saturday with the Brooklyn Bridge, something I've wanted to do since I moved to New York.

The people in my dreams have large heads and small bodies.

its true..

Ive been living in New York for about a month now, and I give it an 8.7 out of 10

HAPPY B DAY JOJO!

Its my little sister's B day today..shes turning 15. She likes to draw, and she has an unhealthy obsession with monkeys....purty freaking cool if you ask me.
Happy B day sis, just because you're old now doesn't mean you can stop drawing!
IM WATCHING YOU.

Sun Burn City.

In progress...

Based on a True Story.

So thats supposed to be Olga.
One day, Olga had this dream about tomato sour dough bread...which I don't think actually exists. Anyway, she was really groggy and tired when she was explaining this concept to me one morning, slurring words and not really making any sense. Luckily I was taking notes the whole time.
So then I got to drawing, and I gave her sharp teeth(which signify some sort of intense appetite or hunger). Her eyes are indeed focused on what appears to be sour dough bread with fresh tomato slices on top. So im like, yeah..its all coming together. All it needs now is some purple text. So I did that too, and voila...I make art.

Weird Fishes....

Inspired by the Radiohead song

Happy Birthday!

I wanted to wish my brother Jon a Happy Birthday..
He kicks ass at a lot of things; playing musical instruments, school, and most importantly being himself.
I couldn't ask for a better little brother, have an awesome day.

Pigeons...

Sometimes when I'm walking home, I can't help taking a quick glance down an alleyway.

"Weekends"

I did this on the weekend.

BLOOOOG VOOOMMMITTTTTTTTT!!!

Me and some friends tried to start a sketchblog called Latin American Dictator Sandwiches. Jeff was the only brave soul to post something. I finally scanned mine in after drawing it 4 1/2 months ago. Anyway...I think one day well get that sucker going. Till then, you can check out two whole sketches at http://www.fidelonrye.blogspot.com/

SO this is old news to some, but the Raptors lost in 6 games to their first round playoff opponent..the New Jersey Nets(They should relocate to Maryland and call themselves the Baltimore Basketballs!)

So began a 5 month depression, where I couldn't eat, sleep, or draw. I did however start working..at a place called the House of Cool. And we just got a new website, so check it out:

http://www.houseofcoolstudios.com/

All those thingys above these words are pages from my sketchbook this summer. I know I havent been posting, but it hasn't stopped me from drawing, or thinking of more film ideas.

In fact, Ive got another one on the way. Its called the Bermuda Triangle, and lotsa stuff happens in it.

For those who want to know, "Key Lime Pie" has been doing really well. So far its played at the Toronto International Film festival student showcase, The Montreal World Film Festival, Cinefest Sudbury, Ottawa International Animation festival, Barrie Film festival, and it will be playing at the Toronto After Dark Festival(http://www.torontoafterdark.com/) next wednesday Oct 24th, before the feature "Nightmare Detectives" at the Bloor Cinema, and the AFI filmfest in LA(http://www.afi.com/), as well as making an appearance in STASH DVD magazine for issue 38.

It picked up a best cinematography award at the TIFF student showcase, and 1st place in the most promising student category at the Teletoon scholarships. Overall the response has been really great..and more than anything, really encouraging.

Other than that, my summer was good...i moved to downtown Toronto, and I live with a tall Irish guy.

-Trev

I hate the New Jersey Nets

Guess who........

thats a wrap

Well, i figured i had to post something to coincide with the end of my college career. 5 years..what can one say? A picture's worth a thousand words, i wonder what a 3:32 short film with 24 pictures per second is worth?

I guess the answer should be in there somewhere.

To my classmates, and my good friends...congrats on finishing your time here. I wish you all the best in whatever you choose to do,

its been something else.

-Trev

****almost forgot.... GO RAPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! were taking game 3!

meanwhile, in the Philippines

dont ask...

I took this at the manila airport with my cousin Joe around 4 years ago. I remember the two of us chuckling uncontrollably. One of those questions Ill never have an answer to....

Caption contest anyone?

you sick bastard

I was sick for three weeks and it sucked.

More Life..

Heres some more life drawing, from my last portfolio for Gerry. I usually dont write back in my own comments section, so I just wanted to say thanks for all the encouraging comments people have left in the past, it is very much appreciated. Heres to a productive and fun last semester of of life at Sheridan, good luck to everyone working hard on their films.

Check Out these NBA basketball players that look like people I know!!!!!!!!!

Exhibit A: Andrew Bogut, the starting center for the milwaukee bucks looks a lot like a 7"0 280 lb version of Ben Plouffe.

Jorge Garbajosa / Charlie Bonafacio

Jose Calderon/ Pierre Luc Aube

Thom Yorke / Casper Konefal

(I know, hes not officially a basketball player......but i had to, sorry casper)

Concept from my grad film

Its a pretty good time to update on the progress of my film, Key Lime Pie. I just finished my animatic, ive got a few small changes but for the most part ive got something i can move forward with. Right now im trying to establish the overall look of the film, so heres my first layout concept; Times square all key lime pie'd up. Expect more posts very soon, in the meantime id love some feedback.

Elephants and Life Drawings

So ive been busy working on my film, Key Lime Pie, which is coming along. In the meantime, i thought i would post some new lifedrawing and some elephant sketches(they brought an elephant to our school). Hopefully in a couple of weeks I can post some work from my film.

The Good Ol Days

NBA season is starting up soon, and im feeling optimistic about my Toronto Raptors this year..Ive been watching them religiously since 1995 when they first came into the league, back when this guy was manning the paint for them. I remember lining up for an hour to get "The Big O's" autograph at the Sports Authority grand opening where I used to live only to find out that he had cancelled his signing. Tracy Murray showed up instead and signed my free sports authority hat, which is probably kicking around in my Mom's basement somewhere. Anyway, just wanted to share a thought completely unrelated to art or film. Go Raptors.
