RunnAnnChew

In 1999, at the age of 22, I had had a single digital art course that taught 3 programs Photoshop, Illustrator, and Quark.

Greatly inspired by a classmates animation final project (Mike Overbeck, “Tongues and Taxi’s” 1999) I spent the summer training myself to really get to know Photoshop by story boarding an original animation that I wrote and drew but never animated.

However the storyboard itself is a really fun and imaginative 38 page comic sequence of some very odd characters acting out a very strange comedy of sorts. I still look back on this with fondness knowing that this is me teaching myself Photoshop one summer, drawn by hand with a mouse, colored with the paint bucket… and looking back, doing some very bizarre character design while I was at it.

There are ghosts, and spiders, and strange two legged flying weebles, and the grand finale ends with a dramatic chorus of bunnies singing the grand theme song to RunnAnnChew called “RunnAnnChew”!

So, with no further ado…. RunnAnnChew
