has
finished taking submissions of short Horror
& Sci-fi films, Bad Taste Comedies, Dodgymentaries,
Cheesy Animations, B-grade Schlock and other Filmic Disasterpieces
for their Australian 2006 competition.
After creating the artwork for the 2006 festival I teamed up
with a workmate/friend and
submitted a 9 minute featurette "the
Patrolman". It was a hoot churning out
some Z-grade special effects and getting back into post production
again. The 2005 Festerval introduced me to the enchanting

Digital illustration
: 2. Zombie
Cheerleader (with pompoms)
created in Adobe
Photoshop 2006 a.d.
Character displayed in promotional
flyers, website, badges and T-shirts (pictured
right). Design
notes :1. The
artwork is displayed as a sample
flyer. Print and web publication
may vary. Trasharama's 'Zombie
Girl' character was not my creation
(pre-existing
promotional feature), Substantial
changes however (fleshing
out the character, so to speak)
have been made giving 'her' more
depth (as
deep as a toxic-green brain eater
can be). 2. When
I was first introduced to the character
I just assumed she was a cheerleader
(prob. the
blonde pigtails), hence
the outfit in the second design.
I like her FM boots. To allow for
text to image constraints a half
length version was designed (see
top of page). Soundtrack
(music to draw to)
