Geiger Grinds Out Skateboard Short
Mike Geiger, an animation director living in Canada, dug up one of his Flash shorts from 2004 and posted it for our viewing pleasure. It’s a 1-minute piece he created for Toy Machine, a skateboarding company started by Ed Templeton. Transistor Sect was created for the Good & Evil skateboard video, and it is bloody and bleak.

Very well animated. I noticed cool techniques I’ll try out in my project.

Great stuff, Geiger! If I didn’t know you, or hadn’t been in the same class at VFS with you, or worked with you, I’d be concerned…
Seriously, that’s some really nice work. I’m glad to see I taught you well…

GREAT work.
SO cool that Templeton is still using this character for Toy Machine… It’s been YEARS now!
Everything moves really well in this piece. Great timing, and no ’slip-slidey-flashy-poppy-jerky’ stuff, just good, solid animation!

I knew you got your talent from somewhere Geigee. Thanks for the clarification Kev. By the way…is this done with what they call “animation”?
xo
