Piper The Goat
February 2005. Duration: 7:38 min. (Preview 23sec/14meg)
"Piper The Goat" is my third animation. A little goat gets kidnapped by a UFO while sleeping in a peaceful, albeit a little bizarre, countryside. What happens next is a menagerie of bits and pieces of places and characters all inside the head of a little female goat named Piper, who will take us on a very trippy journey to find how these places and characters make her tick. These are creatures of the subconscious; and though she does not want all of them to be inside her, they will forever be part of her mind, like a bad memory. What memory? She does not know. She is just a goat.

Hi Lev,
I love your enthusiasm and dedication to animation. Keep up the great work. We need to clone you. Perhaps we can do this in Ottawa this year.
All the best,
Chris.

Lev, you know how fond I am of your work! Even if I haven’t seen the whole animation of “Piper the Goat”, but just from the preview, I can tell this is an amazing - or better yet - dazzling and fine work unlike any other!! I just can’t hold still anymore, I hope to see your whole animation soon!!

Found you from Cartoon Brew, nice stuff! Phew, I look at your work knowing your not even in college yet and I think maybe I should pack it in. LOL Nahh I’ll just work harder. I’m still in fetal phase, and trying to regain some drawing skills, so curently working mostly in Flash /Maya so this totally amazes me. Do you have a page explaining how you made Piper?
Congrats! Congrats!
