The Unmarketables
You probably can tell that the designs of these characters are pretty similar to Doc and Mharti. Originally that’s exactly what they were going to be, but with different names of course. Then we got Andy Dick on the table and how could I resist. He is fucking hilarious and he did a great job […]
Most Extraordinary Space Investigations: Episode 06
For this episode Dan brought in David Hartman to direct. (You might know him as the supervising director and art director on Transformers Prime) Dave is the reason why this episodes looks a bit better than the other ones. This was our big halloween themed episode and we shot it at both my old apartment […]
Most Extraordinary Space Investigations: Episode 05
For this episode we filmed at Sarah’s old apartment (the one that they copied the look of for her place on The Sarah Silverman Program). I can’t remember 100% but I feel like Dan quickly scripted one or two of the scenes in this episode. We still did it all in one night, but I […]
Most Extraordinary Space Investigations: Episode 04
This is a strange one. I pitched the idea that we go to home depot and pay for the services of an immigrant worker, but rather than put him to work helping us paint a fence or whatever they would normally do, we’d pay him to act in our show. It was a tough sell, […]
Most Extraordinary Space Investigations: Episode 03
This episode is a great example of how every idea we pitched somehow found a place within the episode. I honestly don’t think we left a single idea out of this one. Again we got together around 6pm and started brainstorming. Cancer. Kick boxing. Kidnapping. Mustaches. A talent show. These were all ideas we collectively […]
Most Extraordinary Space Investigations: Episode 02
2005. Dan Harmon and Rob Schrab were working with Sarah Silverman developing what would later become “The Sarah Silverman Programme”. We had to make a second episode, so Dan invited Sarah to be the newest cast member on our sloppy space adventure series. She agreed and we all met up at my place around 6pm […]
Most Extraordinary Space Investigations: Episode 01
Dan Harmon was hanging out at my shitty apartment in Sherman Oaks one night in 2005 because we were developing some show for Fox that never got past the first pitch, and we spontaneously decided to make a 101 show. We called up my good pal Sevan and got to work. No script, just following […]
Brain Nuggets
My first TV pitch ever. 2005. I pitched this to MTV2 as a way to package an animated sketch comedy show. I was ashamed of this for a long time based on the radio silence I received after pitching it. I watch it now and think it might be the best thing I’ve ever made/ […]
Hilarious Jokes
This is the second cartoon I made for Channel101 with Sevan and Abed. It looks like it would be simple, but the background we used made it a nightmare. I think after effects crashed several times and Sevan lost a ton of work. Tensions were pretty high on this one. When I first started drawing […]
Magic Fantastic Animatic
I plan to do a lot more of these, mainly because I can do them quickly and without anyone helping me. I made this first episode in 2006 based on comics that Kelsy Abbott and I did. Can you believe that MTV was interested in this for their online portal back in 2006? They asked […]
