Hey gruesome ghoulies!So after a few months of pitching Monstroville as a series around town to various studios including; Cartoon Network, Nick and Disney, everyone decided to pass even though it did
get a pretty good response...guess their just not ready for something with a old school retro 50's monster vibe!
Regardless, I'm now directing and co-producing Monstroville into a flash feature film with my good friend voice actress Carolyn Lawrence (Nick's SpongeBob Squarepants & Jimmy Neutron) who originally recorded the voice of Elsa Von Ghastly for the pitch. Also joining the project are some very talented folks who helped out originally, voice actors Tara Strong (CN's Powerpuff Girls & Ben 10) returning as Edward Von Ghastly plus 2 more characters, and Chris Hardwick (Nick's The X's & Back to the Barnyard) as El Phantasmo, and a few new edition's including; my good pal Miah Alcorn (El Tigre) as the Lead Character Designer/Art Director, Dee Chavez (El Tigre) Background Painter/Texture Artist, and Kristofer Boban (Yo Gabba Gabba!) as the Animation Director.
Stay tuned for more updates! In the meantime, check out Miah's wonderful 1st pass at the Von Ghastly family.
BOO!

Looks great! The characters are wonderful.
Pity the show didn't get picked up. But, in the tradition of one of the greatest horror creations, "IT LIVES!"
