so i kind of won an oscar...

[jelloshotsrule]

haha. thanks for more enthusiasm

it's definitely given me a boost of confidence (unlike the job search!) and has inspired me to get back working on creative stuff, even if it's on my own time.

with a couple rap rock fusion songs in the mix, my eyes are on a grammy next. hahahahahahahah

 

[kretzy]

Congratulations! That's definitely something to brag about!

Good man Jello...


Played a small part huh?


Give it 5 years and a bottle of tequila and your gonna be the star, writer and director of that sucker...


Time to get out the office and back on the creative treadmill I'd say.

 

[3rdpath]

congrats jello! That's a huge feather in your cap.

now update that resume and bang on some doors.

 

[Dynamyk]

Congrats man, that's an awesome accomplishment.

 

[yoda13]

Congratulations. That is freakin' awesome. I wish I could do something like that. That is so impressive. Congrats again. Get out of that office!!!

very cool. and way more fun to show at parties than home movies!

just watch out for those $100,000 goodie bags on your next trip down the red carpet. sounds like the tax due can be a bit high

hah. thanks all.

like i said, it's weird because it was a while ago, and i didn't play a huge role in it. of course, i'm still proud to have been a part, and it's more than a lot can say for sure.

what's funniest is that i work a temp office job, not utilizing my artistic skills in the least. my family has joked that i should call the people i interviewed with for a tv job to let them know that "i won".. hahah

anderson- it will be on tv at some point, probably cinemax or bravo. sometime in the next few months. i'll update you when i find out, and can describe the seconds that i worked on. hahaha

oh, and i definitely plan to contact my professor, at least to congratulate him...

congratulations! that's awesome.


now you must post two things:

a screenshot of your part

a transcript of your speech (i mean you prepared a speech, didn't you?)

 

[jelloshotsrule]

well i'll give you one of the two... hah

that still (the fist slamming down on the table with the kid holding his ears), is from one of the scenes i put together.

for those unfamiliar with animation, let me be clear so as not to wrongfully boast... john canemaker animated the film himself. what i did was scan his drawings, and time them out on the computer based on his exposure sheet (basically tells how long to hold each image, etc). so i did that for 3 scenes. and i also animated the title (which is a bit more intricate and fun)...


i didn't prepare a speech because i didn't even know it was nominated!

BUT, while on the red carpet i did grope scarlett johansson's boobs.

oooohhhh, so that's what they meant by $100,000 goodie bags. yeah, the tax would be worth it!

 

[mangis]

Congrats!!!

How many people are allowed to get statues? Is there only one?

I heard that if a film wins an oscar, many people who worked on the priject are eligible for statues. I wonder how far down the pecking order this reaches?

Anyway, congratulations!!
