Dear Yesterday,
2006 Hong Kong. MTV Asia and my good friend Chris Lee approached me about designing and sculpting the MTV Asia music award. An animated story was being created in Sweeden ( of all places ) that was suposed to run throughout the entire awards. The animation was awesome for the time and budget. Very Gorillaz meets Book of Eli - Euro-Anime style.
I was supposed to work on the very first MTV award ( Bronze popcorn ) with one of my mentors in NYC and it never happened so this project was a kick. KORN was among the many performers from all over Asia that came up to accept the award I had created and it was a good way to make up for the missing the boat on the first MTV award.
I think we fabricated about 50 of these in all. Most of them went out that night to the celebrities. I was supposed to be at the show that night in Bangkok but I needed to fly back to the states to be with my father as his health was deteriorating rapidly from Cancer. They ran a documentary on big screens in the concert hall. Some of the images you see here are taken directly from the show. In retropect it's a good thing I didn;'t make it to this show. The state of mind I was in was certainly not a healthy one and I would have wound up needing Rambo AND the Ghostbusters to fish my dead body out of Irrawaddy River in Burma.
I have the Behind the Scenes doco somewhere- I'll post another time.
Check out the youtube's - good stuff. Thailand rocks!
Peace Love
