As we continue to show you the journey to the realization of our Stay True Project, we caught up with talented illustrator/animator/toy designer – Jared Deal. We hung out with him at his spot in Brooklyn NYC and had a great shoot. Really cool dude and the interview went well. Jared along with a partner (Garnet Syberg-Olsen) have been putting out toys/work under their company – Carnival Cartoons and from the looks of it, they’ve got some heat. Thanks for the bagels and juice too, Jared! I took pictures from the shoot of course and here they are. Enjoy and keep checking in with us to know when you’ll be seeing the interview. It’s a good one…we’re going to be working with Jared on a couple of things in the near future too so stay tuned.

here’s Jared….

the art piece that started it all…Jared’s first art piece that was hung in Toy Tokyo..This was before he started making his own toys. Shout out to our friend – Peter Kato who was manager of Toy Tokyo at the time and let Jared hang his piece up…

even though, they may have slightly changed, you’ll notice that the characters are still the usual suspects – Buzz Carney, Harriet, Pierce jumping through a hoop…

also, Jared had a Ms. Pacman/Galaga arcade in his crib! How cool is that? I need one!..so so dope.
