Paper Cut the video game - Logger cross dresser

Here is an older "in progress" video I documented for my Paper Cut video game. While transforming my original logger into a lady, he became a bearded lady with a chainsaw. perhaps one day, to be a main character.....?

Htmlles And Timber Jack

Timber Jack, the video game I produced as a commissioned work at Studio XX has been selected for presentation for the Htmlles Festival in November. Nearly two years after the project was initially started, I am now digging back into the archival blender files to re-hack some fix ups and add some new elements. Yesterday I animated a BEAR! I am working again with Blender aficionado Julien Beausejour who is dedicating some time to help me with the complicated programing of the game in Python script language. Here are some of the modeling pics from this week. I am drawing the bear today to load as texture to the model, and I have a Lady Lumberjack drawn out and water-colored for a secondary character to add. More updates soon..

ENGRAMME RESIDENCY - Quebec, QC

Je serai en résidence à l'atelier Engramme de Québec en mai 2010 avec ARTHUR DESMARTEAUX. WE have a great apartment in the Centre Meduse between the old and new city with easy access to the studio. We are preparing a large silkscreen print installation for Artist Proof Gallery, in Calgary du 7 au 31 juillet 2010. Photos soon! stay tuned...

falling trees!

This is a new demo of my video game progress at studio xx.  This week I had a lot of fun adding my hand drawn textures into the game.  Now it is time to design the full landscape.  But the tree is falling!  [Thanks to Julien Beausejour for master programming help.]

PUCES POP FESTIVAL MONTREAL

Puppet Making Workshop

This October I participated in the Pop Montreal Festival as Musician, Workshop leader, craft maker and exhibiter.  I was asked to organize a puppet making workshop for the Pop Montreal Festival.  The series of workshops was organized for the pop montreal festival as part of this years KIDS POP.  All workshops took place at the Mile End Cultural Centre at 214 Bernard.

As a participant for the ShOW & Tell Event as part of the Puces Pop DIY (Do IT YOURSELF) section of the Pop Montreal Festival,  I exhibited my silkscreen prints and some of my hand puppets at the Green Room.  The puppets were made in collaboration with Arthur Desmarteaux.  I also sold my prints and embroidered shirts at the Puce Pop MArket, and played my trombone with my brother Bradley Thomas Moore for his show at the KGB.  (I played one song), making for a very amazing, busy schedule at this year's festival.

The Puppet Making Workshop was a successful event with many participants.  Although most people were under 10 years of age, the parents who brought the puppeteers were just as eager to dig in and make some puppet magic.  I brought my home-made crafted Shadow Puppet Theatre to test out the finished results.  We made mostly Brown Paper Bag puppets for the little ones... but later made some shadow puppets to try out the stage.  

Thank you to Puces Pop and the Pop Montreal Festival for such a great event, and especially to JENNY CRAIG who organized the DIY, craft market, the Show & Tell etc, etc....
