The next in the Dan Meth animation domination that I get to contribute to is "Special Features," a series of cartoons for Comedy Central's Atom.com. The first episode is a re-imagining of the new Star Trek prequel, but as an 80's/90's teen movie. Aside from the sound design, that's me as Bones and a bullying Klingon.
Special Features: Trek Yourself
The second is a spoof of all the movies they keep making from 80's toy and TV shows, taken to the next logical level of ridiculousness (fake trailers are fun sound work):

PLAYBOY'S PLAY-MATION NATION
Yes, Playboy is also trying to get in on internet comedy cartoons with their Play-Mation Nation site. I'm not sure how I feel about that or anything Sex In The City related, even a mocking parody. But Dan Meth's "Big Apple Fornicators" did give me the chance to create the sound of mutant male genitalia, an opportunity I will likely not repeat. View it HERE.
COLLEGE HUMOR
Here's a few of Dan Meth's cartoons for College Humor. First is the "Anatomically Correct Slow Jam," a clinically sensual quiet storm track, I got to record the song, voiced by talented Vincent:
This one is an episode of the College Humor staff's around-the-office series "Hardly Working." And Dan gave me a nice pile of sound effect fun to deal with on this one:

NITE FITE
W222's flagship news/talk/intensity program is Nite Fite. With Dan Meth and I as Penalty and Lloyd, hot button topics are debated into absurdity.

BERMUDA TRIANGLE:

Here is the original first episode, which was featured in Dan's Meth Minute series:
As a bonus, Dan wrote about how Nite Fite got started on his blog and posted a video about the behind-the-scenes (Thanks to Justin). Also, you can hear the original radio program that all the cartoons were born from here:

METH MINUTE 39
I've had the great pleasure of being the secret sound design weapon on many of the Meth Minute cartoons. They won a Streamy Award for "Best Animation In A Web Series." Here is a selection of my favorites:
Japandering
The Music Nerds
Sid & Nancy
Space Cowboy
Sex Machine
Wang Warriors

MURDER FM
Synthetic American is the film making outlet of Nathan Ryan, a long time friend of W222 Radio. The most recent SA release is Murder FM, a film about murder at radio statio, WNTR, sister station of W222. Much of it was filmed at W222 Studios, as was the post-audio work. You can see the full trailer here or watch the embedded clip with some nifty action sound. And also some nifty acting by yours truly, announcing the eponymous on-air death.
5 ON
5On is creator Devin Clark's news show that I recorded voices and did sound design for. Its a man-on-the-street, talk-of-the-town program where host Alan Whiter interviews 5 of anything about everything. It was originally done for Comedy Central's website and now they even had Devin make a pilot based on 5On called "Ugly Americans". Check out the original episodes here (and with all the swears):
5 Robot On Immigration
5 Demons On The Environment
5 Zombies On Presidential Candidates
5 Monsters On Out Of Control Young Celebrities

ORPHAN FEAST, Starring Creaky Tom
I did the sound work for an on-line video game, Orphan Feast. In it, you can be Creaky Tom, a creep old guy who goes around stuffing urchins into a sack to eat later!
It is created by Robox Studios for the website of Cartoon Network's Adult Swim. You can play it HERE, or you can check out in this clip:
STANLEY KUBRICK BLOOPERS
Stanley Kubrick Bloopers from Dan Meth on Vimeo.
Here's another animation from Dan Meth. It was done originally for the Starz cable channel. It was for their website, but I don't think they ever used it. It is still funny. Not only did I help him with the sound, but I got to be Kubrick. The "funny" is all Dan.
SUPER BABIES
Here is a preview/trailer-type clip for a animated series called "SuperBabies." It was supposedly a little pilot/example that was for Queen Latifah's development company (that's not her voice in the clip). It never got that far. The project was dropped before they even finished this video. And SuperBabies became the title for Baby Geniuses 2.
But I did get paid to do some cool sound design for it.

TALK ABOUT IT: The Sports Podcast For Idiots
Talk About It is the Sports Podcast For Idiots. I produced the show for hosts Tim Curcio and Jackie Clark of the Upright Citizen's Brigade. The show has been dorman since Jackie moved to LA, but even if the bits aren't timely, the sports/talk/joking is still hilarious. You can check out all the episodes click here or listen to some of the highlights below:
PEEPER RADIO THEATER
Though dormant for a season or two, it is worth revisiting the ahead-of-its-time Peeper Radio. When friends Jeff Somogyi and Dave Pietrandria decided they liked old-time radio comedy programs so much as to make them for the internet, I was all aboard. We were fairly prolific for a while there. Then they re-named what we were doing "podcasting." See the website is here. Or enjoy this sampling:
