How to Draw Finn! (With Phil Rynda)



Hey everyone!

From the Trenches of Adventure Time is here!

From the Trenches” is a behind-the-scenes video series of the super talented folks that make up the crew of the animated hit series, Adventure Time, by Pen Ward!

For our first segment, we interviewed the amazing & lead character designer of the show, Phil Rynda! In the video above, Phil shows you how to draw Finn, and gives some good advice for any artist.

Phil will also start teaching at CalArts this Thursday night! Congrats Phil and to the students that will be lucky to have him as a teacher!

So what are you waiting for? Get watching already and get inspired by the Rynda-ness!

A special thank-you to my friend and summer intern on Adventure Time, Nathan Connelly for helping me shoot and edit these segments. Check out the trailer for his ambitious student film, The Bayou Blues, by clicking HERE.

Stay tuned for another segment next week!

Volcano (Original Film Pressbook)

Country: United States
Language: English
Publisher: Twentieth Century Fox
Year: 1997
Price: $100.79
Notes:
• Type/Extra Details/Pressbook: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/3c/10/7a/3c107a2c27809eabe2702a7917e4e2b9.jpg
• An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]; 45 pages; book cover)
• Description: Volcano, the 1997 Mick Jackson natural disaster action thriller ("The coast is toast.") starring Tommy Lee Jones, Anne Heche, Gaby Hoffmann, Don Cheadle, Jacqueline Kim, Keith David, and John Corbett
• Important Added Info: Note that pressbooks were prepared prior to a movie being released. Often, changes would be made in a movie advertising campaign (billing of actors, different images, etc.), and the theaters would print up special supplements that they would send out with the pressbooks that had already been printed. These supplements are very rare, far more rare than the pressbooks themselves! Some pressbooks would have no supplements, some would have one, and some would have several. we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook (if the back cover is not the poster page, we photographed the interior poster page), and of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are auctioning (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Given that theater owners purchased pressbooks partly in order to create their newspaper advertising, and quite frequently cut them up for that purpose, it is rare to find a pressbook that is complete and uncut!
• Condition: very good. Book shows no wear, No writing in the book. Back flyleaf and inside back cover has a bit of surface tears at the top corner from being stuck together at one time. Poster has some wear, stress crease lines running down poster.
