Befriend that bull, man...

Whoo-hoo! Hey guys! Are you ready to meet Clive, the most handsome and loyal British gentle-bull you've ever seen? He also had a very good taste in picking friends. His BFF is that cute little skinny coyote over there, the name's Drake. Well, what's wrong with that, you might ask. Easy: Clive is supposed to guard over a farm house, instead Drake is hungry all the time so he got used to stealing other's food... Got it now?
The pilot episode is coming this holiday season, in the meantime do not forget to visit, like and share the OFFICIAL FACEBOOK PAGE.

Wang... the alien.

At long last, here's the first official poster from the movie I've been working on the whole year at Palantir Digital. "L'Arrivo di Wang" is a sci-fi movie directed by Marco and Antonio Manetti who also directed several movies, clips and TV series. The movie will premiere this September at Venice Film Festival 2011. After that, I really hope I'll be able to show at least a few of all the hundreds of shots I did for the movie. There's more on the way (one trailer and a couple clips will also be released) so stay tuned for more.

THE UGLY DINO

Ta-dah! This is the latest feature I'm working at. It's almost 10 times more complicated than Friend Of Mine: more characters, more places, and better animation. THE UGLY DINO tells the same story of the Ugly Duckling, but it's set in the Jurassic age. One rainy night, a small T-Rex egg rolls away from his nest and accidentally lands in the nest of a female Pteranodon called Chelsea. Once the egg hatchs up, Chelsea and her nestlings are astonished wondering what that small T-rex was doing there. Inevitably, Chelsea just can't help loving that cute cub, and decides to parent him. But every other dinosaur is scared by the small T-rex, who starts feeling predator instincts. Things get worse when the cub meets Arnold, a huge Tirannosaurus who begins to hunt him down, forcing the poor dinosaur to leave the valley. Will the real cub's mother and Chelsea be able to save the day before it's too late?
THE UGLY DINO will be out next October, and I would like it to partecipate in famous animation contests like AniBOOM and CORTOONS. In the meantime, have a look at this wallpaper!
