Adding Video Clips - Jac Mac and Rad Boy: Go!

So I’m going to add some fun to the Blog. It seems that everyone these days are adding various video clips from YouTube, Google and other sites, so I might as well jump on the bandwagon. I’m not sure how often I’ll be doing this and there is a chance that you have seen these videos on other Blogs.
Keep in mind that videos may be taken down, so please e-mail me if you come across a video that isn’t working.

Today’s clip is called “Jac Mac and Rad Boy: Go!”. I first saw it at an animation festival back in the 1980’s. I can still remember it on the big screen and besides laughing my but off (the immature twerp that I was) I was amazed at the artwork. Come to find out, it was done completely in colored pencil by a guy named Wesley Archer in 1985.

It looks like some what of a precursor to Bevis and Butt-Head and that’s by no mistake. Mike Judge said he was heavily influenced by this piece. Archer has gone on to do other animation, most notably The Simpson’s, Futruama and King of the Hill with Judge, himself.

As I look back on it, the artwork still holds up today and it does contain ultra-violent images, but Mac and Rad get their due in the end.
