Pencil Rebel 2

Pencil Rebel 2 is the awards winning experimental website created by me  using mixed media, stop motion and Adobe Flash to provide a unique, interactive experience.

Web address: www.pencilrebel.com

If you live in the United States click here to play Pencil
Rebel on DisneyXD

The whole idea in this neverending fight between analogue and digital is that “Creativity is inside of us, not on the screen” and there are many ways to express yourself.

Tools: pencils, scalpels, hot glue and cardboard. For the transformation into Digital a Nikon D50, Photoshop and Flash, Mac & PC.

    Hi, brilliant game. I can’t begin to imagine how long it must have taken you to make. I was just really chuffed to see a Fred Aldous receipt in the game. It’s my favourite art shop in Manchester!

    Anyway, thanks again for such a great game.

    Wow. Great stuff. I would’ve taken the easy way out and done everything in photoshop and flash.

    Simplemente, genial, eres muy creativo, y el gran manejo de recursos basicos, nos da este tipo de resultados aplicando las herramientas tecnológicas que están a nuestro alcance.

    Felicidades!!!!

    This is amazing, I have been a gamer for only a year or so and I always believed these games were graphic generated…is there any way I can get inside your mind for 5 minutes?

    Love your work man

    Ok, this game was so much fun I didn’t want it to end. The detail that was put into making this game is a little crazy, wow. Is this a hobby or is there money involved, not that it matters because it was fantastic to play!
    Thanks for all the effort.

    I must say, you’re perseverance has inspired me. It must be grueling to do something so simple-looking, yet so complicatedly so. How you’re able to do this without having to run around screaming later is so baffling to me.

    I do hope to see more of this soon.
