In 2010, New York's ASIFA-East created an original 12-month wall calendar as a fundraising device. It featured artwork from some of the Big Apple's top animation talents. Among the 12 artists was pioneering web animation director Xeth Feinberg, who (at the calendar launch event) screened a new series of self-produced web cartoons called Ugly Realities, a spoof on the 'reality show' genre. I've known Feinberg since the mid-1990s and whenever he has a gap between paying projects, he'll crank out some new indie shorts, which he'll self-distribute on his websites xeth.com and mishmashmedia.com, in addition to sending them out as links to clients, network executives, colleagues and friends.
