Mario Paint

1993, Age 11

This game was the first piece of technology put into my hands that made it possible for me to make animations. I was already skilled in the making of flip books, so this prospect excited me. I would do the drawings and animations, and my best friend would compose the score. Our most popular cartoon was "Severed Heads Rolling Down a Conveyor Belt." When we figured out how to hook the VCR up to record what was playing on the SNES, our feeling of power exploded. We were making our own cartoons! How awesome was that!
