You have to love the freedom of creating on the interwebs people. From interviewing successful business owners to animating lego or geeks talking about… what geeks talk about. I give you TwendyTV. I with the help of some pretty amazing friends hope to grow TwendyTV into a hip little internet TV network of shows that will one day also integrate into the TV network as seamlessly as switching between cable TV channels. So look out ABC’s of the world, look out NBC, CBS and all the big boys… ha ha… baby steps, ease up Bruce.

Why Twendy?
When I was traveling around Tanzania in June 2009 there was one Swahili word that really stood out, Twende (Let’s Go). After arriving back I felt inspired to start working on an idea for a travel blog called Twende, but this soon turned into grander ideas of creating multiple shows and an internet TV network. One thing lead to another, a tweak of the word to accommodate a grander theme and voila, TwendyTV. If anything it’s a bit of a play on the word Trendy, but the W I feel also gives it a slight TWITTER slang. I have felt for a long time that TV networks and internet content will eventually merge into a seamless experience, so why not start something now before it the BIG BANG happens. What I also love about this project is that there are no boundaries, no limits, this is completely open to the world. Hopefully our regular TV shows will end up the same way, being released to the world instead of restricted to one country then filtering out in time to other countries. Fat chance of that happening right now, but you never know.

I thought I might wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year with a short but fun little animation. Shot with the Nikon D90 using stop motion and masked video. Enjoy :0)

It’s been a big year, Merry Xmas and looking forward to a big 2010.

I thought I would put together a small fun Christmas wish animation. Hope you like.

So back in April I posted Blast from the past, which was a post in regards to Andy Evans, who provided the web world with a plethora of FREE animations, icons and tutorials in the 90′s way before it was cool to do so on his website called Andyart.com (Andy’s Art Attack, now Scream Design). In that post I mentioned I had purchase a disc from his website. Well on that disc is a complete copy of his website, well almost complete, it is missing the portfolio which he explained why in that section. I got some good feedback on that previous post so I decided to upload a copy of the site for everyone who knew Andy or anyone interested in Web Design and Web Development in general to travel back in time and take a look at the old site.

Now before you all jump on me for posting this, I have made some serious attempts to track Andy down to gain permission to post this, but with no luck. So Andy if you happen to stumble upon this post and you’re not happy about it, get in touch and I will gladly take it down. If you like the post get in touch anyway, would love to catch up. Here is the website.
