A TELLY FOR GEORGIE

Dave Puls’ latest cartoon, “When Georgie Goes Marching Home,” has won a bronze Telly! This prestigious award honors outstanding local, regional, and cable TV commercials and programs, as well as the finest video and film productions.

Congratulations, Dave!

“Georgie” takes a humorous look at what’s REALLY going on with the Bush administration, set to the crowd-pleasing melody of “When Johhny Comes Marching Home.”

THE OTHER GODS PLAYS SYDNEY AND PROVIDENCE

“H.P. Lovecraft’s The Other Gods” continues playing to pulp horror fans around the world. Earlier this month, the silent short from Mike Boas’ Subterranea Entertainment played in two new festivals.

First was A NIGHT OF HORROR in Sydney, Australia. The event had screenings devoted to horror, animation, and adaptations of H.P. Lovecraft’s works.

Providence, Rhode Island (Lovecraft’s hometown) played host to PULP UNCOVERED, a new festival dedicated to literary and film fandom. The Other Gods screened during the “Afternoon of Lovecraft” at the Rhode Island School of Design.
