I hope you all are really enjoying the new site design and the loads of new content. I will work hard to keep it rolling along on a daily basis. This week though, I am at lovely Lake Aurora with the band, enjoy the sights and smells of about 150 middle school kids (Haha!). So far it has been lots of fun in the sun and great worship times.So here is hoping for no broken ...

Vampires Scare Me (uploaded by DRA Studio)Guess who couldn’t finish The Lost Boys this morning because he got scared? Yup, I am a scaredy-cat.

The product of this week's Art Kids d-group session. Roughly 150 photos, at 8 fps. Enjoy. (If you are in the mood, why not add your own sound-effects and music to it?)

**UPDATE: Check out the pimped out version that Tyler did ... very nice.

If you're reading this in the wee hours of the morning on March 8, then I congratulate you ... and I reward you with three links to add some internet fun to you night/morning. Here you go:

Oddly enough, I didn't keep any of the things I drew yesterday, so instead I will leave you with two nuggets of YouTube goodness.

The first? John Reuben's new Word of Mouth video ... not too shabby of a track, and the animation is pretty fun. It has this kinda Cartoon Network meets 1970's School House Rock feel too it. (It was directed by Chris Oatley, who's work is pretty great stuff).

Second? No More ...

So the other day, we were watching Monster House (quite the enjoyable flick, too) and it dawned on me that, not only would "Thou Art Dead" be a great game to play, but I am sure someone had already made it into one. Sure enough. And I even found a blog by one of the artist/animators. Fun!

Oh and in case I didn't already tell you about Anberlin's soon coming album, Cities, consider yourself told. Why ...

And the winner of this movie trivia contest was Erica Grant.
Courtney was a close second and Dennis came in third (which would be last). Sorry that the runners up do not get a price!

So, apparently Jodie just sent out a swell little announcement about the new contest here at the Dra Studio and you should all be pretty excited about it. If you look closely, you can see the start of her list for that contest on this here scrap of paper. Hmmmmm.

This quiz follows the career of some people from Television shows to Movies, and sadly for some it goes back again.

1. What actor from the Boy Who Could Fly now does T.V. commercials? Jay Underwood

2. What one role from ...

Hehe ... I'll let you in on a little secret ... Matt and me ... we're planning something. Something cool. Cool and big. Something cool and big and totally needing to involve our faces as cartoons. Hehe.

O, it is gonna be good.
