  • Director, David Hartman and The Minnesota Iceman
    2024/12/11
    *STAY TUNED AFTER THIS EP! a track from the David Hartman (as Zorgon) Electronica album, D1m3n51on X
    This week I’m joined by Director and Storyboard Artist, David Hartman. He’s the Director of the 2016 film, Phantasm: Ravager. Plus 25 years worth of other film and Television work like Godzilla: the Series, Astroboy, Jackie Chan Adventures, Laser Fart and the animated video for Rob Zombie’s American Witch. Just to list a few.
    He’s also done storyboarding and artwork for Tenacious D, Bubba Ho-Tep, the Boondocks, Tranformers Prime, Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous, Extreme Ghostbusters and John Dies at the End and more.
    Above all(?) He’s a phenomenal artist who loves to draw monsters!
    ***
    ON ART: We talk about the benefits of drawing first thing in the morning, keeping your dogs away from your Apple Pencil the disturbing drawings and destroyed toys of our childhoods, and how storyboarding on Bubba Ho Two led to David directing the 2016 film Phantasm Ravager. Plus a boatload of movie geek talk about Mario Baba Inframan YOR: the Hunter from the Future, Legend of Boggy Creek, Yeti: Giant of the 20rh Century. And David made short films for Dan Harmon, and Rob Schrab’s Channel 101. We talk about that too!
    ON MONSTERS: At an early age, David had a run-in with a Bigfoot-like creature known as the Minnesota Iceman. Is the term “run-in” a wild exaggeration? Listen and find out!

  • Dark Rides and Haunted Houses with Animation Artist, Reed Randolph
    2024/11/19
    Reed Randolph is an animation artist, most recently working as a character designer on Exposing Kittens.
    This week Ben's chatting with Reed about how he went from working as a teenage Scare Artist in the famous steel factory-turned haunted house, Sloss Fright Furnace to designing for an indie Dark Ride.
    In between he worked with Jim Henson Company, desiged concept art for Blippi’s Treehouse and went to Ringling College of Art (not necessarily in that order!) The guys talk about going to art school and whether its still recommended for young artists these days. What’s it like to pitch a "dark ride" to IAAPA? (The Global Association for the Attractions Industry) What's the best paint for black-light artwork? Reed has stories about that too!

  • Time-Sucks! Dealing with Procrastination and Distractions : Doomed Megalopolis the Last Megalopolis
    2024/11/05
    This week, Illustrator, Creator (and your host) Ben Walker-Storey talks about his two big time-sucks: Procrastination and Distractions, what could be at the root of these problems and some thoughts, tricks and tips on working around them.
    Then its time to talk about monsters! We need to talk about the 1988 film, Doomed Megalopolis the Last Megalopolis (or Tokyo: The Last Megalopolis) from Director, Akio Jissôji
    Ben does his best to avoid big, clinical words or armchair diagnosis but (spoiler) this episode is monstly about mental health issues like Anxiety, Depression and ADHD.
    Regardless of any neurodivergence (dammit! a big clinical word) you may or may not have, Ben has some tips that have helped him stay more productive in recent years and get back into what was so fun about art before adulthood and money was involved. If nothing else let's remember to go easy on ourselves.
    This episode is brought to you by the Cheap Chills Etsy shop. Ben’s designed a bunch of T-shirts and prints for people who love spooky weird stuff, custom art brushes for Clip Studio Paint and there's even some vintage toys and clothes for you to check out.
