Dash Shaw

New Website Up!

2010-09-08T00:38:00.004-04:00

There's a new website for the animated movie I'm doing. I wrote about it previously on this blog. This new site is a shared production blog featuring storyboards, animatics, production drawings that wouldn't otherwise be seen, original cartoons, other people's cartoons that we like, some writing, and I'm posting a drawing from my sketchbook every weekday on it too.

Yes, this is where all of my online energy is going to be spent for the foreseeable future. At the end of this month I will probably redirect dashshaw.com to the new site ruinedcast.com to reflect this.

From Here to There

2010-08-02T16:01:00.011-04:00

The map of Boney Borough from BodyWorld was selected for the forthcoming book From Here to There: A Curious Collection from the Hand Drawn Map Association edited by Kris Harzinski. It's a great book and I feel honored to have a map in it.

Obedience Poster

2010-07-23T19:22:00.014-04:00

This is a silkscreen poster I designed for Stanley Milgram's film Obedience, presented by Light Industry as part of No Soul For Sale at the Tate Modern a couple months ago.
This is a computer mock-up of it, since it's hard to see in a photograph or scan:
It's two colors: a dark gray and a green. From a distance, it looks completely black. As you approach it, you see the image and the two holes at the top... (photos from the Tate Modern)
...and then the green peeking through the gray. (a scan of the print)
A couple sketches from it:

The New Graphic Novelists -- New Creators Transforming the Medium
Sunday May 9th @ 1:45pm-2:45pm, Learning Centre 1 (Library 1st floor)
There is a pantheon of great graphic novelists -- the folks who started thinking about comics as singular, book-bound creations. But that concept has shifted since its conceptualization, and a collection of young creators are pushing the medium in fantastic new ways. Creators Joshua Cotter, Colleen Frakes, Nate Powell, Ryan North, Dash Shaw, and Raina Telgemeier will discuss their experiences producing comics that alternately defy and embrace the term 'graphic novel". Moderated by Eva Volin.

Yes! Now you too can possess and proudly display a dieball trophy without all of the physical training, competitions, and potential diegunk addiction. Desert Island (Brooklyn) knew you wanted it, so we made this signed and numbered edition of 100.
In blue and "sparkling" gold- my middle school colors.
23 X 29"
It's available on the Desert Island website or go to the store to see it in person. While you're there you can pick up the latest Smoke Signal too.

Making The Abyss
Drawings from BodyWorld, Bottomless Belly Button, animations and comic short stories by Dash Shaw.

Shaw's recent works (BodyWorld, The Unclothed Man, and Bottomless Belly Button) connect an interest with the human body, informed by figure drawing, with humorous character-driven narratives. This show displays his original art for these stories, which are often a combination of traditional crowquill and ink work with gaouche paints, acetate sheets, animation-style backgrounds, colored marker storyboards, and mixed media collages.

Animated Feature SLOBS AND NAGS to Sundance Lab

2009-12-14T18:29:00.008-05:00

This was announced today.

Slobs and Nags is an animated feature I'm working on. Howard Gertler and John Cameron Mitchell are producing it. Right now it's basically the same team as Unclothed Man: with me writing/directing/drawing, James scoring, and Jane drawing- plus Slobs and Nags will have the new addition of Frank Santoro drawing! Yay!
It's very early in the process.

Brooklyn Comics and Graphics Festival

2009-11-30T16:42:00.007-05:00

This Saturday, December 5th, I'll be at the Brooklyn Comics and Graphics Festival hosted by Desert Island and Picturebox.

Smoke Signal 3 will debut there. I will have a new mini there too (above image.)

I'm scheduled for 3-4pm at the festival.

Before that, at 2pm, I'm on a panel on "comics and animation" with R.O. Blechman and Kim Deitch (!). It will be moderated by Bill Kartalopoulos at Secret Project Robot. A while ago I showed Deitch my IFC animations and as he was watching them he said: "...yeah... I did some of this in my day..." It was cool.

Everything is free.

Old Work 3

2009-03-06T18:43:00.002-05:00

Moving into early college. Freshman/Sophomore year. Worst comics ever. Unfortunately still haunt me to this day.

A large comic/painting thing that I threw out after finishing:

Making The Abyss/ Mome 14

2009-03-05T19:15:00.003-05:00

In the most recent Mome (#14) , my story "Making the Abyss" was printed out of order accidentally. The second page printed was supposed to be the last page. That's why it says "end" at the bottom of the second page. This mistake also threw off the corresponding page spreads throughout the story.

Above is the first spread as it should have appeared.

It will be printed correctly in a forthcoming collection.

Old Work 2

2009-03-05T11:20:00.003-05:00

This is one of the illustrations I did for The Richmond Times Dispatch "inSync" supplement while in high school. This was a weekly gig.A funny high school photo while I was in Japan. I am the only one smiling. Also the only non-Japanese person.
The cover and a page from a comic I did called "Shippori" senior year of high school. A Xeric grant loser.

More crap tomorrow.

Old Work 1

2009-03-04T17:11:00.011-05:00

I did a long interview a while ago, for the Duke University show, that now appears in the most recent Comics Journal. I dug up and scanned a bunch of old work to run alongside the interview.
However when the interview was printed they didn't use any of the images, just "Mome" pages and random things that they had around the office I guess.
So I'm taking some of what I scanned and posting them here, in multiple posts, for a few days.
First up: a very early (first?) comic that my dad wrote and I drew. It's my dad's handwriting on the bottom of the pages and he probably helped me where I wrote words at the beginning. In its entirety!

More crap tomorrow. Moving into more embarassing territory.

Show & Tell: Torture Hospital layout book

2009-01-21T19:59:00.004-05:00

For Christmas, Jane made me a book to do all of my layouts for a murder-mystery comic I'm working on in.
It's designed for each page to be a spread of the book. It's awesome.

Next week's pages will go up Sunday, earlier than usual, because of my France trip.

I finished a new 8-page mini for Angouleme. It's a ditty of Humorama-style gags featuring BodyWorld characters and I'm selling it for a dollar. Color covers are scraps from BodyWorld photocopies (I sometimes paint over computer photocopies so I can work over computer colors.)

Jesse Moynihan's "Forming"

His writing always makes me laugh. Check out the "Future Me" comic in the "other comics" section and also all of the Kime Agine strips.

He has a secret 100+ page hilarious, moving comic book that's yet to be published. The above image is from his Meathaus SOS story.

I will have a few Cold Heat Specials I did with Frank for this tour. I hope to have a new mini too, but I don't know if I'll be able to get around to it before I leave.

Side note #1:

I was asked to be on a panel about character designs at the New York Comic-Con. I enthusiastically agreed, but realized later that it overlapped with my France trip. I cancelled, but it looks like I'm still listed on the New York Comic-Con programming. I won't be there. I wish I could. I'd love to hear what people have to say on this subject.
Side note #2:

BodyWorld scheduling will get wonky around my trip. I'm going to post a couple of days early (Sunday) the week of the 25th, and then a day late (Wednesday) the second week in February. I don't know if anyone cares or would notice, but there you have it.
