Cecil and Britches are going straight to video
But that doesn’t mean you’ll find them on Netflix anytime soon.
It does mean that all the new featurettes will be much more portable, because they will be edited and distributed in the video formats that we all know and love. To date, all of the Cecil and Britches films have been created exclusively within Flash, and have been distributed online within the Flash player. Future releases will be made available in a variety of video formats, which should help with accessibility and portability to environments like your YouTubes and devices like your iPhones — which I know nothing about.
I will also go back and do the same with the existing featurettes.
Just so they don’t feel left out.
3 commentsChristmas Debut : Crumby Presents
If you like Cecil and Britches – and you like Christmas – it follows that you should probably like Crumby Presents. Or not.
I started collecting materials and building props for this little dandy back in October. But production slipped into late November and early December due to all kinds of mess you don’t even want to know about. Suffice it to say it’s done. And just in time for the holidays, no less.
Enjoy. And let me know what you think.

As usual, I can’t leave good enough alone.
While working on this year’s holiday featurette, I decided to remaster last year’s as well. It’s nothing major. Just more consistency with some of the design elements, cleaner typography and some subtle adjustments to timing. Tell me if I messed it up.

Production is in full-swing for this year’s holiday featurette from Cecil and Britches. Be on the lookout for its international debut sometime in early December. It’s sure to be small, silent and black and white.
Stay tuned.

Bonnie Craus, award-winning author of Everything’s Coming Up Sock Monkeys: The Art, History and Business of the American Sock Monkey has agreed to include Cecil and Britches in her new book. It will be a sequel to the first, and promises to command top billing on coffee tables and breakfast nooks nationwide.
Bonnie’s first one got five stars on amazon. What more can you ask?
I’ll need to get one for the woodshed.
