New Website Up!

There's a new website for the animated movie I'm doing. I wrote about it previously on this blog. This new site is a shared production blog featuring storyboards, animatics, production drawings that wouldn't otherwise be seen, original cartoons, other people's cartoons that we like, some writing, and I'm posting a drawing from my sketchbook every weekday on it too.

Yes, this is where all of my online energy is going to be spent for the foreseeable future. At the end of this month I will probably redirect dashshaw.com to the new site ruinedcast.com to reflect this.

From Here to There

The map of Boney Borough from BodyWorld was selected for the forthcoming book From Here to There: A Curious Collection from the Hand Drawn Map Association edited by Kris Harzinski. It's a great book and I feel honored to have a map in it.

Sketchbook: Fight, Munch, Yes

Obedience Poster

This is a silkscreen poster I designed for Stanley Milgram's film Obedience, presented by Light Industry as part of No Soul For Sale at the Tate Modern a couple months ago.
This is a computer mock-up of it, since it's hard to see in a photograph or scan:
It's two colors: a dark gray and a green. From a distance, it looks completely black. As you approach it, you see the image and the two holes at the top... (photos from the Tate Modern)
...and then the green peeking through the gray. (a scan of the print)
A couple sketches from it:

I'm not there, but Fantagraphics and Pantheon are:
