NICKELODEON
Yo Gabba Gabba television show

Directed animated segments for award-winning children’s television show on Nick Jr. Animations were used in both broadcast television and live stage show.

Hey, Come Out and Play

Yo Gabba Gabba tasked me to create a kid-friendly animation from an obscure song from the 60’s. I commissioned the band “The Little Ones” to rerecord the song and directed Puny Animation to create the animation. The story follows a central character as he heads outside to make new friends and find adventure.

RIDE

For the second season, Yo Gabba Gabba asked me to write and direct a story for their Ride episode. The animation revisits the character from Hey, Come Out and Play and follows him on a bike race against his brother and the wrong turn that leads him into an unknown land.
