The Thief and the Cobbler: Recobbled Cut : An unofficial restoration - for the first time ever, enjoy the original version of this lost animation classic, written and directed by three-time Academy Award winning animator Richard Williams (animation director of Who Framed Roger Rabbit). Nearly 30 years in the making, a labor of love by a team of animation greats, this was to be the masterpiece of Williams career, perhaps the most ambitious independent animated film ever conceived. The film was the inspiration for Disney's film Aladdin, which proved to be its undoing. After over two decades of work, the film was taken away from Williams when he couldnt meet his deadline. It was eventually bought by Disney, recut and destroyed. It has never been seen
the way it was intended to be seen ... until now. Based on Williams' original workprint, missing scenes have been restored using storyboards and unfinished animation. Restored to its true form, this lost classic has finally been found - for you at home. Watch it at Youtube and Google Video, and join the discussion at FFrevolution.com.
The Story:
It is written among the limitless constellations of the celestial heavens, and
in the depths of the emerald seas, and upon every grain of sand in the vast
deserts, that the world which we see is an outward and visible dream, of an
inward and invisible reality ... Once upon a time there was a golden city. In
the centre of the golden city, atop the tallest minaret, were three golden
balls. The ancients had prophesied that if the three golden balls were ever
taken away, harmony would yield to discord, and the city would fall to
destruction and death. But... the mystics had also foretold that the city might
be saved by the simplest soul with the smallest and simplest of things. In the
city there dwelt a lowly shoemaker, who was known as Tack the Cobbler. Also in
the city... existed a Thief, who shall be ... nameless.
ANIMATION AMONG THE MOST GLORIOUS AND LIVELY
EVER CREATED! - The New York Times

Doctor Who Animations - Whosprites : Watch this Youtube video! There are 108 lost episodes of Doctor Who, the classic British science fiction series about an eccentric traveler in time and space. The show has been running since 1963 and remains popular to this day. But many of The Doctor's earliest and greatest adventures no longer exist as video. The audio still exists, as do photos from these lost pieces of classic television. WhoSprites is my animated project to bring these lost episodes back to life for a new generation. This is a fan project, not for profit. I'm hoping to get hired by the BBC. You can help out too, by animating these pieces yourself! Read the Beginner's Guide.

Star Wars - Deleted Magic : Deleted scenes. Alternate footage. A look behind the scenes at what didn't make it to the final cut of the Star Wars trilogy. One of the most popular and acclaimed things I ever did was this feature-length and very unofficial documentary about the deleted scenes from the first Star Wars. Because it was made from copyrighted film clips, this film is not sold anywhere. It is available for free on the internet, so anyone can enjoy it. Lou Tambone, creator of one of the best Star Wars sites out there, Starwarz.com, has been kind enough to host the website for it on his server. Look for the full DVD on the usual file-sharing sites - I know it's at myspleen.net. I have deconstructed the film, putting deleted footage, behind the scenes footage, alternate sound and video, and notes on how the film came together in editing ... it's a completely different vision of the first Star Wars that will give you an idea as to what was cut out, and how the film was made and put together. It has been seen and greatly enjoyed by Garrick Hagon (who played Biggs Darklighter, and is heavily featured in this documentary). I've also given copies to Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker, and Billy Dee Williams.
Supermarket of Horror
An unofficial fan-sequel script to Sam Raimi's "Army of Darkness" I wrote for fun at the very beginning of college, in 2000 or so. With apologies to Sam Raimi, Bruce Campbell and Renaissance Pictures.
And, just for fun, here's a version I did as an experiment, that removes all references to Evil Dead, creating a generic horror movie. Supermarket of the Damned ... I like the Evil Dead version much better.

Monty Python's PythoNET - A website : Founded in 1996, this was for many years the #1 Monty Python fansite on the web. Taking a look at lesser known Python projects that had never been discussed at length on the web before, it garnered approval from the official Monty Python website. It hasn't been updated in years, but it's still a great source of info and enjoyment for any fan of the all-time-great British sketch comedy team.
