Kickstarter?

What if I told you the first Truncheon M Productions kickstarter was launching in 44 days?  Now, what if I told you it was to bring Mr. Meow plushies, Tshirst, and other gear to the 2014 Austin Wizard Con, and to animate Episode 2: Night of the Living Fridge?  Hopefully you'd be stoked!  We've come along way in the last four years, so to celebrate that, here's our first Dr. B & Meow cartoon.

This was animated by one person in 4 weeks with zero skill.

So in 44 days we'll begin posting new stuff that is worlds better, so check back soon!

Wizard Con 2013

Bridgette and I were featured on Nerdlocker.com

This was my second year at Wizard Con representing Powerhouse Animation at our studio's information booth.  I had a good time and met some interesting people.  Next year I'm thinking about having a table for The Adventures of Dr. Blah-kman & Mr. Meow.  I'd sell prints, posters, plushies, t-shirts, and pickles.  I'm also thinking about suggesting a few ideas for things to sell at PHA's booth next year.  On the other hand I could just scrap all of that and just run around in a unitard.  Ya know, do what everybody else there is doing.
