Above, his January 2013 planet, Planet One, where the musical inhabitants get together and get a bit more than they bargained for.

30 Days of Animation
Apr 23, 2013A character in a moment, one created each day for 30 consecutive days, animated as an exercise of skill and imagination by UK-based animator Geoff King. He writes:
“It was difficult to even think of what to animate most days. I spent a few hours on average for each day, sometimes it felt like all day. I originally intended to do them quicker but they usually didn’t get going till the late evening. This also meant all the days where only ‘first passes’ or ‘straight aheads’. After the first 5 days I realised I should try to maintain a reasonable quality. It wasn’t easy, a lot of time was spent hitting a wall but I had fun trying something different everyday.”
DIY.org
Apr 11, 2013Here’s a new promo for the fabulous website DIY.org. What we find so awesome about the site is the way it takes the idea of learning a new skill and turns the process into a game. We’re a big fan of fun & games here at Raskullz, and couldn’t be more stoked on the way they’ve taken the power of fun to the next level.
