The Red Walls Unreleased Video


Jared Deal tipped me off to a project he had a hand on – a Flash-animated music video for The Redwalls, a four-piece band out of Chicago. The animation crew was also a four-piece band – Mark Salisbury (supervising director), Scott Martin (director), Tim Shankweiler(background design) and Jared Deal designing some characters, building layouts and animating like a fiend. It was intended for The N network, but it never aired. After sifting through The Redwalls website, it appears as though they went for a live-action video. Ho hum.

Jared also had other news for me – he and Garnet Syberg-Olsen are embarking on new 5-minute animated short based on a story by Stern Rockwell. Rockwell runs ‘Streets Are Saying Things,’ an online graffiti museum, and the short will follow two friends, Bet and Dooz, as they set out to tag a pristine train. It’s the latest project from their production entity – Carnival Cartoons. You can see a BG ruffs over at Garnet’s website.

    That’s fun. I like the Z-axis crotch thrust. A classic rock move.

    Thanks for sharing Aaron!

    I really thought the animation was well done! Although I think the color palette was a bit sickly and kind of took the production value down a bit for me.
