The Art And Feel Of Making It Real - INTERVIEW 01


I was recently interviewed by Randall Sly, who runs a very popular animation and entertainment blogsite that is devoted to animation and entertainment artists. The site is "Characterdesign.blogspot.com," for which I was lucky enough to do an interview for. Today I was informed that they have posted the interview alongside some of my work for people to get an insight to who I am and what I do:

Take a look and let me know what you think when you get a chance.

All My Best,

MAC

Man, you have so many blogs it's hard to navigate thru your profile to the "official" blog. Congrats on the book! Are you gonna be signing any at the SD comic con this summer?

Mark McDonnell said...

Thanks guys.

Chia,

I will definatly be @ the Comic-Con this year. I will be in a booth by myself or with John Nevarez and Jose Lopez. I am very much looking forward to being there with LOTS of artwork to sell as well. A LOT of artwork, I repeat . . . I have TOO MUCH laying around, so I am happy to share them with my friends, as well as selling my book as well.

I also will be having a book signing out here in the Burbank area very soon. I am just hammering out the details with 3 places right now.

Best to and and thanks again guys . . . pretty exciting.

Best,

MAC

hey Mark!

can't tell you how thrilled i was to see that you visited my little ol' blog AND left a comment. thank you so much. i really hope you'll check it out again soon and often.

also, i know you're already part of tons of blogs, but it'd be awesome if you'd check out our drawing challenge blog and maybe even post something sometime! we'd be honored (and greatful) seeing as how we've just started it and we're trying to build up a fresh community in the animation world. any quick sketch you share with us would be a huge contribution :0)

anyway, your work is astounding. i'm glad people like you post things so that people like me can learn from work well done. i'll definitely have to check out your book!

Hey Mark,

The meeting went well. My agent says they liked my ideas and me. Now I have to wait for them to convince their higher ups. Matteo and I did some art to help boost it. Shoot me your e-mail address if you want to see the art. I don't want to make it public at the moment.

Mark said...

Wicked blogs man.. I really like those robot sketches on your game design blog.... U into the gaming industry as well??

All ur stuff has so much life to it..
