TRON Uprising COLORSCRIPTS

Colorscripts have been probably the most important part for the look of the project. Here some samples.

Los Angeles Exhibition

Today 5th NOVEMBER Opening.

Each painting is possible thanks to very special people,places and specific circumstances.

This solo exhibition tells the story of my last 3-4 years in painting, but it is mostly a tribute and my way to say thank you to all my models and places that for some reason move me in to one or another direction.

Los Angeles SOLO exhibition

I will have my first SOLO exhibition in Los Angeles between November the 5th-11th.
Please join us for the opening on Monday November 5, from 6-10 p.m. at GR Space 114 W. 4th St. Los Angeles, CA 90013.

Until then, I´ll be painting and working and painting and working and painting and working... and giving away any kind of social life. And that makes me happy.

We will be at Comic-Con this year. I hope to meet lot of people and shake lots of hands.
I'll be signing some art work with my friend Rob Valley. Come by and say hi.
With such an excuse, I post here some Paintings and Art Directions for Tron Uprising:

VIEW OF THE TIMES

The biannual Vanidad´s magazine "View Of The Times" ( which I actually highly recomend ) did a reportage and interview about my work and persona. 
Interview by great Marta de la Calzada. 
As far as I know it can be founded in several countries.


La revista SEMESTRAL "View Of The Times" acaba de publicar un reportaje sobre mi trabajo y algunas de mis más o menos notables palabras. Firma Marta De La Calzada, que és estupenda. Ya en sus quioscos y librerias especializadas durante seis meses!

TRON UPRISING, now on air.

So as you know we are braking our soul in several pieces on this production. Reviews, comments and critics has been really great so far. THANK YOU PRESS!

SO after reading some comments here and there, I have some things to say:

This series are good because people involve in it is indeed committed like hell. Both teams, here in USA ( Disney ) and there in JAPAN ( Polygon Pictures ), share the love for the project. Which ever is the budget, which ever is the label, the channel or the production company, this series are going to be great because the team really care. Nothing else.

To those who are scare about all series happening in the claustrophobic blue grid, I´m happy to say that you are wrong. ( i´m indeed really happy to say so ) This series are as complex as eye muscles system and we´ve been and we still are suffering to make this production a joy both visually and storywise.

We still integrating new ideas, new things, new effects. We are improving and learning under a heavy rhythm.

For those who are worry about animation, DON´T WORRY. Animation gets indeed crazy good and we are still improving every episode.

Exactly the same as artwork, we were making a process and finding a formula in the beginning. 

For those who already like the series very much, thanks very much! I´m glad we are working so hard.

For those who are scare about some marketing movements, don´t worry so do I…

Series will debut on Disney XD on June 7, 2012.

FOR PETE

Friend Pete Kranjcevich died last week at the young age of 36.
He was the technical Director on the TV series In which I've been working for the past 2  years, incredible man and incredible athlete( he was Ironman last year, the guy! )
We all think now about the unfear randomness of life.
This is for you, Pete.  We miss you very much.

De nuevo, vestido de pinkman.tv, hice un nuevo video sobre un importante asunto que me tiene preocupado.

18 pages for you to read

I decided to publish 18 pages short story for you to read.
This short story was also published on "image comic". I did some revisions since then.
Obviously, dedicated to the superheroine in green hair, who is real.

With all of them I´ve been learning as hell and I feel my painting skills did grow so much by just revising and checking their artworks.

I would love to show something here, BUT as you must know Mickey Mouse wouldn´t be happy. So we better wait.
However, I can show this poster i did some time ago for Comic Con.

Character Designs by Rob Valley ( Whom you all know ) . I´ve been working with Rob for a long time and for one reason or another our work is been part of very interesting productions, as Beatles Rock Band, XBOX or some Motorola adverts... Here in Tron Uprising not only his characters designs were superb, also his story boards are probably the most beautiful parts in this show. I hope we´ll do a book ( comic book ) only with his panels, pure joy for your eyes ) ROB VALLEY

And TALKING about good taste. Vehicle designer, The incredible ( Don´t even know what to say about this amazing designer ) : Daniel Simon.DANIEL SIMON

Meanwhile...We still working on the series. I hope you all like it or I kill you.
