Happy New Year!
We all know about YouTube (how could we live without YouTube?) Unfortunately there are file size and duration limits for YouTube uploads and I am not technically savvy nor patient enough to split things up.
Hello www.vimeo.com and our FWAK! ANIMATION Channel on Vimeo. OK, it’s still looking a little sparse and unexciting. So far there are only three video clips: The first episode of Cosmic Baby, our Super Mahi Tiki “Lava Palaver” short and the pitch and animatic for our Here’s Jimmy pilot (find out more about these projects on our website). We promise you that there will be more in the new year! We plan to sort through some old VHS tapes, digitize our earlier animated productions and share these on the internet.
In February 2009, Eddie and I will be returning to Sydney for two weeks to pack up our animation studio belongings… As some of you know, we have been leasing this studio space since 2000. It’s quite sad to have to let it go (great location!) but the reality is that we are now settled in L.A. Eventually, we hope to set up a new studio base here in L.A.
If you are located in Sydney, Australia, you may be interested in our Studio Furniture Sale. We have tables, chairs, a photocopy machine, filing cabinets, animation discs, couches, fridges, lamps, a bar etc. Everything’s gotta go and it’s all going for cheap! Sadly we can’t ship a lot of this stuff to the USA and would prefer that they go to a loving home or office than to St Vincent De Paul’s. Please get in touch if you would like to see a list of sale items. (lili dot chin at g mail dot com) Local pick-up only by Feb 17th. 2009.
To our Los Angeles friends, here’s a date to save. On February 5th, 2009 (El Santo’s birthday!) our movie Los Campeones De La Lucha Libre will be screening for one night only at the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood. If you missed our Private screening at the Vista Theater in July, here’s your chance to see it on the big screen! We will post more details closer to the date. In the meantime, join our Los Campeones Group on Facebook. (LINK <– you need to be registered on Facebook to access this page)
HAPPY NEW YEAR, Fwak! blog readers! May the year 2009 bring us all more good times, more success and more moolah.

Feliz año nuevo from Maska Lucha! Thanks for the info on the Animation Channel. Any chance we’ll be getting some Mucha Lucha episodes on it?
@El Maska - Feliz año nuevo to you too! Unfortunately the copyright for Mucha Lucha is with Warner Bros Animation, so we are unable to broadcast any episodes ourselves. And I’m sorry to say they seem to have no plans to ever release the episodes on DVD. -Eddie
