In support of the Boston LGBT Film Festival, Gina Kamentsky produced this Flash-animated promo. The animation is a bit choppy, but I dig the design. The festival runs from May 6th to the 17th.

On the heels of recently adopting a dog, multi-hyphenate artist (sculptor, comic-artist, toy maker, animator) Gina Kamentsky has released a new short film. Lil’ Basenji is a wacky 2-minute Flash-animated film on the subject of dog identification. Sounds like Kamentsky could be an advisor on the White House dog.

Gina Kamentsky’s list of careers reads like an art student’s dream. This Massachusetts-based artists has designed miniature golf courses, created dozens of commissioned sculptures, created comic books and prototyped award-winning board games and children’s toys.

In 1998, while working for toy-maker Lego, she discovered Flash, which she used to produce virtual prototypes. It wasn’t long before she started using the software to create her own animations for the web.

Gina’s latest animated creation is titled You Got Pancake (mild-nudity), a short and relatively abstract work filled with plenty of drawings and snappy timing. I spotted the short in the the message boards, and just had to share it.
