Fancy claps, TEO fans, fancy claps! We're back, kicking into what I like to think of as Act Two of TEO Book One. …Except that would be mixing a stage metaphor with a literary metaphor, so that wouldn't really work, would it? Never mind.
This page I did all today, and it took up a lot of time, but it actually turned out better than I expected. Of course, I've totally redesigned the Midnight Run's answering machine from Page Fourteen, mostly because the old version kind of sucked. (Go ahead! Have a look! Honestly, a total redrawing of pages one to fifteen is looking better all the time. I'll have to delegate the project to da summa'months, though.) Next week: Manzini's!
I would have a photo of the previously mentioned grand-prize T-shirt(s!), but I've already mailed them. So… too bad. You'll never, ever know what they look like, unless you're a personal friend of Josh Florence. Ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaa. (Don't worry, I'll probably make one for myself and take a photo, and then you'll see what they look like.)
In personal news this week (these posts are sounding more and more like… perish the thought… a LIVEJOURNAL. Let's just hope I don't start angsting too much on here), I went to Lancaster, Pennsylvania yesterday for the Pennsylvania College of Art and Design's open house. The PCAD (as we cool people call it) is this leeeetle college of only 250 students in this five-story warren of a building in downtown Lancaster. It's just about the most awesomest college I've ever seen. (But, of course, I haven't seen many yet, so…) Also, I left a bunch of business cards strewn about the facility, so, PCAD students, if you're reading this, welcome to TEO! Consider this site part of my portfolio! Now please accept me! Also, if anybody has a Lancaster apartment that will be vacant in about two years, let me know! Awriiight!
Also, on Friday, I, along with my friends Mike, JM, Zack, Mike's girlfriend, Zack's girlfriend, and some other kid who probably looked like a Jake but I can't really be sure, went to this improv show over at a different high school than ours. It was creepy– like a high school you'd see on a TV sitcom. The halls were exactly what you'd envision high school halls to look like, and the show's audience members were all unusually stylish and photogenic. The improv group itself, suffice to say, was exceptional– a thousand times better than the crappy little group I run at my school (JEFF). And these kids were the same age as us! If they can succeed, why can't we? There will be some changes to come, mark my words. Stern words will be had. It's time to get serious about being funny.
This week's TEO Inquiry of the Week (doot doo doooooo!): What's your middle name? …No, seriously. We won't laugh. I'm really curious about this; it's not something you learn about until you really get to know someone. (Mine's James, by the way. Ian James Jay, after my dad. Ha ha, mine's nowhere near embarrassing.)
So, yeah. Gotta go. Tomorrow I'll be going to a European animation showcase over at MICA. Life just keeps lookin' up!
