When I was in college I created this bizarre piece of animation. I thought it would make and interesting commercial promo for MTV Networks.
I put a pencil test version on a video tape and sent it to "MTV networks" to the address I got from the phone book.
Two weeks later they called me and wanted to buy it. That was the first job of my Animation career, and brought me to New York City. The spot won a Broadcast Design Award, and a Jury Awarad at the Holland Animation Festival. Afterward, MTV offered me a full time job on Beavis and Butthead.
It became the most aired ID spot in MTV history. I can't thank MTV enough for this big break.
