Immigration Cartoon Contest
Posted on January 23, 2007

I created this cartoon idea I had for the International Immigration Cartoon contest.
The cartoon had to be based on an idea about immigration, so….
I had the idea, penciled it out, and allowed myself little time each week to work on this idea to be finished as a digital cartoon file and submitted it.
Video demo of Live Digital Caricatures!

As many of you know, I use a large touch screen monitor (called a Cintiq) hooked up to my Macbook laptop.
I am hired to entertain at corporate events with the Cintiq and Macbook. While at these high-end events as part of the entertainment, we set it up to project a live feed from my computer onto a giant screen. Then I print out the finished artwork and give it to the person drawn.
Just for fun, I recorded the Cintiq screen while drawing someone. What you see above is exactly what they see up on the digital projector screen (though I did speed up the video just for fun!).
Let us know what you think! It’s been such a hit at these corporate events. Everyone loves watching their co-workers being drawn and instead of a herd of people struggling to see the me drawing, they can laugh and see their friends being drawn from anywhere in the convention or conference room!
