Another short from ye olde ‘Dunce Bucket’ pilot (2009) from the Ackland & Durante team.
If the rumour was true and the production company who produced these was really looking to spend left over government incentives and paid for Dunce Bucket instead of wasting it, imagine what could happen if real money was put behind it. I guess that’s what we’ll all have to do. Imagine. As far as I know, this variety show went only as far as the pilot ep.

Warren Leonhardt spent too much time watching tv, reading comics, or doodling in his math textbooks to really pay attention, but he thinks he was raised the Kootenays of British Columbia by two grownups and a sister. After realizing that cartoons and animated films don’t make themselves but were actually made by people, he decided to become one of those people. Over time he’s managed to fool companies like House of Cool, Disney Canada, Spümcø, Sony Pictures Animation, Blue Sky Studios and Corus into actually paying him money to draw funny pictures and generally goof around as a storyboard artist for animated features and television. He currently lives in Collingwood, Ontario, Canada with his long-suffering wife and toddler. In between drawing till his hand falls off and fending off the wildlife invading his property, he interviews people more interesting than himself for CAR.CA.

Who else here thinks that the tree branch in the picture is the guy’s arm. Hahaa
Super funny short btw. I don’t know why, but that slo-mo wide shot walk cycle is hilarious..
Wished this variety show would have been picked up. They always turn down the bad ideas don’t they?.. 🙁
*Oops.. meant “they always turn down the GOOD ideas”
