Marked Animation 2012 Reel™

Happy Monday!

Bidding Adieu to the Old MarkedAnimation Site

IT'S OFFICIAL.

Within the next 48 hours my original website will be switching over to a brand-new, much more user-friendly design powered by Cargo Collective.  The URL will continue to be www.markedanimation.com, but gone will be the days of my foray into basic (some would say too basic) web design consisting of cut up photoshop documents.  I can't tell you how tedious & difficult it was to keep that thing updated, which is why I eventually migrated over to this blog to keep new work coming.  My new site will be updated much more frequently, with easy navigation, fast-loading Vimeo video & all the other bare necessities.  Check back for an update shortly when it's live!


UPDATE: The new site is live: www.markedanimation.com


I beat her to it, Joe!

Marked Animation: The Spring 2011 Demo Reel... COMING SOON

I enjoy compositing my face onto others' for the sake of a good demo reel.

That's right!  For the first time in two years I've actually managed to update my demo reel and believe you me (mostly me), it's like night and day between the two.  I'm not even going to provide a link to my last reel in this post for you to easily find out of curiosity.  You're going to have to dig for that pile of subpar Markness.  Unfortunately I can't post it publicly just yet as I'm still waiting for a few of the clips to clear, but maybe if you ask me nice and can keep a secret I might consider giving you a peak outside of the blogosphere...

UPDATE:  I'll be posting it to this blog from my brand-new Vimeo account tomorrow.

Rebranding on the Way...

Lately I've been thinking about replacing my old Marked Animation logo with something a bit fresher.  Y'know... something that's not just the font of Century New Gothic with a bit of red lettering that I scribbled in the middle.  The truth is I didn't really like the original logo but thought it was a good placeholder until I came up with something new after I initially set-up & built the website in 2005.  Hopefully by the time spring hits I'll have completely revamped the site -- probably through the web publisher Cargo (my friend Mark Theriault has a nice one set up) but will still maintain this blog regularly.  I have so much more going on than when I left college that I can't keep my site 'up with the timez' anymore & considering I just updated it with "© 2011 MARK PHILLIPS" for the first time since '09, you can see my predicament.

I've never been much of a logosmith, but I like it.  Thoughts?
