And sometimes the Apple eats you

Life is a strange and wonderful journey, my friends. Who would have thought that I would get my new job thanks (probably) in part to Tiger Woods' peccadilloes? Remember the Taiwanese animated re-creation of the Tiger crash that got a ton of amused coverage in the states? Well, I am typing this in the office of Apple Daily as we speak! Since the Tiger slam video, Next Media Animation has hired me, trained me and started siccing me on some stories. What follows is my first baby -- a two-minute animated recap of the Conan O'Brien/Jay Leno flap. I've worked on other videos, but this is the first one I fully wrote and project-managed.

Our animation team is just...amazing. I cannot describe how sharp and creative and scarily FAST they are. And yes, I am biased. But I really think it's hilarious.

I am also biased in another way: GO TEAM COCO!
