It's been a weird week. We also find out that PAT IS A RAPPER. Learn something new every day.

For the first podcast of 2014 we talk "Frozen"s success, Rob's new animated short, and a lot of death. One passing that hit us was that of "Apple Dave" (mistakenly called "Apple Dan" on ep1). It hit us hard. Hit us right in the podcast. But never fear... we're still as dumb and likable as ever! Let us lift your spirits and get your year started off with a few laughs and some actual sincerity (for 0.4 seconds). Happy 2014!!

This is a single from episode 8 of The Rubber Onion Animation Podcast, the Christmas Episode. Stephen Brooks does an acapella rendition of Carol of the Bells with the theme and advice for all freelancers in the New Year... "Don't Work for Free."

Pat is sick. The kind of sick that puts you in the fetal position. So Rob & I take this podcast solo and we do a terrible job. The kind of terrible job that circles back around to awesome "Sharknado" style. In this episode we talk about Netflix and what it means to the industry, Ron & John's new film, and of course... princesses. Rob & I also try our hand at being radio show DJs. We are bad. The kind of bad that you can only get at a high school radio class. Enjoy! (=

We're back from Thanksgiving break with a new podcast! In it we announce the winner of the "Find the Zombie in the Podcastimation" game, talk about holiday animation related stuffs and some sad end of the year layoffs. But it's all ok because we bash "Family Guy" for pretty much every decision they make and talk about porn being spliced into Disney movies, Tyler Durden style. Also, we really have to pee. Hope you like it (the podcast, not the pee)!

This week's episode is a special 20min interview with animator Andrew Kaiko about his process of creating a short, inspiration, ideas on style, and of course his brand new short "Norm & Cory!" He has a great traditional style and a wonderful sense for color (which we also discuss in the interview) as you can see in his short ON VIMEO. I encourage all of you to watch it first. Andrew was also kind enough to provide some images to share as reference to the topics we discuss which you can also see below matched with a time-stamp indicating the relevant moment in the podcast. Let him know how much you like his work on twitter, on his video, or on the blog in the comments! Thank you, Andrew, it was a pleasure talking animation with you!

Annotations: 3:20 -- Character Design: Model sheet for "Norm" (below) 9:33 -- Traditional Animation: Gesture exploration for "Cory" (below) 12:56 -- Workflow: After Effects comp showing Flash characters & Photoshop background (below) 13:40 -- Color Script: Mock frame (below)This episode we preview the interview I had with Andrew Kaiko about his new animated short "Norm & Cory", as well as a guessing game, a discussion about about sexy Disney men and a rundown of the major animation stories of the week! Rob & I have been working on our "secret" project (which we announce on the podcast) as well as two separate animated shorts which come out this week... but that also means we're tired. Very tired. So a fun drinking game to play in this podcast would be whenever someone makes a gigantic, embarrassing mistake while trying to say something relevant... drink!
Sidenote, I'll be gone next week but the conversation continues on twitter and facebook under the hashtag #PatRyan2016 ... come up with some good campaign slogan for our crazy co-host. The best ones will get read on the next podcast!
