Paul Robertson, the genius who brought you Pirate Baby’s Cabana Battle Streetfight 2006 (which is also my favorite t-shirt), has just released his latest film. Kings of Power 4 Billion % makes even less sense, but is just as fun as the first film. There aren’t any mirrors up yet, so ping me if you’d like to use mine.

  • Cartoon Brew is an animation blog.
  • Drawn! is an illustration blog that often covers animation as well.
  • Sandbox World focuses more on comic books, but also does animation.
  • all kinds of stuff belongs to John K the creator of Ren and Stimpy a features a lot of cartoon theory. John K created the first cartoon made specifically for online distribution and had a huge influence on the development on Flash because of this.
  • Funny Cute is Katie Rice’s blog. She started working as an artist for John when they revived Ren and Stimpy.
  • Channel Frederator is a weekly cartoon podcast which always features good stuff.
  • Waveform is a podcast for electronic music videos which are generally animated.
  • Adult Swim Fix is updated on Fridays with the next week’s premiers plus old episodes.
  • SIGGRAPH video review features short clips, but has the title and creator so you should be able to find the full length versions easily. Finding that today reminded me of one of my favorites from last year’s show: Bubble Girl

(all embedded videos are queued for the correct cartoon)

Recently the Channel Frederator cartoon podcast held their first ever awards show. I had seen many of the winners, but these are the few that I hadn’t seen and absolutely loved:

“The New Guy” – Ed Skudder (above) won for best use of a robot.

“Bendito Machine” – zumbakamera won Best Design.

“War Photographer” – Joel Trussell won Best Music Video. The song is from Jason Forrest’s Shamelessly Exciting which has some great mixes.
