Eponyms are doing it for themselves

Somehow, FOS Lisa Corrao discovered that she and an animator at an outfit called 4EyedAnimation shared the same last name. One thing led to another and she ended up with this nifty animated short that married a bit of hers with the quirky, Crickfalusian animation that the Brooklyn-based studio incorporates into Flash animation, websites and Shockwave games.

The Male Half is envious. Some years ago, he discovered that he and a hotshot artist-producer at Disney share both a first and a last name— look it up, “Brian McKim” is in the credits in nearly every animated Disney project from Little Mermaid to the present– yet the eponymous animator answered not one email.
