The teaser trailer for ParaNorman, the movie I have been working on with LAIKA for the past year is finally here! You can also see the poster for the film above. And now for the trailer:
Here is the official synopsis of the film from laika.com:
A misunderstood boy who can speak with the dead takes on ghosts, zombies and, worst of all, grown-ups, in order to save his town from a centuries-old curse.
Norman Babcock is an outcast in his small New England town. When a horde of zombies is unleashed on the populace, Norman learns he must use his paranormal powers to make things right again. That’s not an easy task when you’re only eleven. And you’ve just been grounded.
The voice cast includes Kodi Smit-McPhee (The Road), Oscar® nominee Casey Affleck (Gone Baby Gone, Ocean’s Eleven), Oscar® nominee Anna Kendrick (Up in the Air, Twilight), Emmy® and Golden Globe® winner John Goodman (Monsters, Inc., The Big Lebowski), Leslie Mann (Knocked Up), Jeff Garlin (Curb Your Enthusiasm, Toy Story 3), Christopher Mintz-Plasse (Superbad, How to Train Your Dragon), Tony® and Emmy® Award winning performer Elaine Strich (30 Rock), Tempestt Bledsoe (The Cosby Show), Bernard Hill (Titanic) and Alex Borstein (Family Guy).
Directed by Sam Fell and Chris Butler.
Based on an original story by Chris Butler.
Distributed by Focus Features.
Arianne Sutner (Animation Producer, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou) and LAIKA President and CEO Travis Knight are producers. Academy Award® winner Brian Van’t Hul (King Kong, Coraline) is Visual Effects Supervisor. Nelson Lowry (Fantastic Mr. Fox, Corpse Bride) is Production Designer and Tristan Oliver (Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit) is Director of Photography.
We are all very excited to be able to finally share a little bit of this amazing film! Looking forward to the August release!

Hello zubko.com visitors! It may have seemed I was dead to the world, or at least being extremely lazy and inactive recently – but nothing could be further from the truth!!! I have been hard at work, working at LAIKA animation on their next feature film, Paranorman! If you missed the first two links, check it out HERE!!!! I can’t say anything that hasn’t been announced already, but I can tell you that the story and visuals are AMAZING and it will be a great GREAT film!
So leave a couple hours open in August 2012 to go see the film when it hits theaters!
Have you been eying a fine art print of my Betty White With A Flaming Chainsaw Riding John Ritter in my store, but not sure if you should take the plunge for an extra special holiday gift for your loved ones? Well, head on over to the Portland Mercury website where you can bid on that very print, where your money will be going to a good, charitable cause, benefiting The Raphael House (raphaelhouse.com), a Portland, OR based nonprofit that assists survivors of domestic violence and their families!! Who knows? You may be able to get one for much less than from my online store. The fine art Giclee print is on textured watercolor paper and is of archival quality. Sized at 9.75″ x 13.5″, it would look perfect hanging over your fireplace, adding the “epic” quality to your living room you’ve been searching for.
Check it out HERE!
Act fast! The auction ends Saturday, December 11th at 12pm PST. Happy bidding!
It’s out, it’s out! You can now pick up this week’s issue of the Portland Mercury, complete with the all-new, all-awesome Choose Your Own Adventure style Eat & Drink Guide. And after spending some time reading it, let me tell you – it’s definitely worth picking up if you are in the PDX area.
Available this week only, so grab one soon!
I apologize to anyone looking for the Portland Mercury Food & Drink Guide this week. It has actually been delayed until this coming week and should be available on Thursday, October 21st. Make sure you pick one up, it will be available as a special insert of the FREE Portland Mercury!
For all of you not in the Portland area… I’m sorry. But I suppose a Food & Drink Guide for Portland wouldn’t be of use to you anyway. Please enjoy the cover art on my site instead!
More new work postings to come!
The Portland Mercury’s Food & Drink Guide will be available as a special insert in the October 14th edition of the paper. I provided the illustrations for the cover and interior spots. Pick one up starting October 14th – they’re free if you’re in the Portland area! You only have one week to grab it, so get one while you can. It sounds like the guide itself will not only be informative, but very entertaining as well. Mark your calendar!

Sorry for such a short notice, but I have a piece of artwork on eBay, donated to raise money for the Even Chance pitbull rescue in San Diego, Cailfornia, and it’s only got about 2 hours until the end!!! Unfortunately, I was away on vacation when the auction went up and did not have a chance to put a post in a timely manner.
You can view the auction for my item here. Please check out all the other great items up for sale here!
Thanks for checking out my, and all the other artists’ work!

You wanted it, you got it! Prints of several pieces are now being offered in the all new zubko.com shop! Just click the “shop” link tab, or the image above to see what’s available. The now-famous Betty White piece, as well as several others are available as 4″ x 6″ postcards, 9″ x 13″ prints, and for the collectors – high quality, archival Giclee prints, available on smooth or textured art paper or canvas. I’m sorry to those of you looking for your Batman Vs Shark print, however, as I do not yet have permission to sell that or any other illustrations that feature trade marked characters (such as Conan).
I also must apologize to my non-US resident fans, as I am only accepting and shipping orders within the United States at this time.
If you see a piece in my gallery that is not currently available in the shop, please leave me a comment. I will be adding pieces to the store as time goes on, so check back often to see what’s new! I may even add other merchandise and original dimensional art to the store in the near future as well!
