The Night John Died
Anomalous
Year: 2013
Genre: Drawings
"Anomalous" is a text-free sketchbook packed with demented doodles from the mind of 20+ year feature-film animation veteran Scott Claus. Compiled from five years worth of notebooks, this collection is fanciful, funny, sexy, disturbing, sloppy, stupid, beguiling and completely engrossing. Stuffed with hundreds of quick, raw pen sketches on lined notebook pages, the effect is that of an undiluted, rambling memoir charting images from one artist's subconscious over a period of time, creating a new form of self expression: a "doodle-ography."
Year: 2021
Genre: Non-fiction/Memoir
"How To Hollywood" is a narrative non-fiction account of one person's journey through the Hollywood film industry with a focus on the the world of animation film production.

Valuable as a guide for anyone interested in the entertainment industry whether for fun or for potential work, this book offers an entertaining, up-beat, easy-to-read first-hand account of life in "the movies," with plenty of tips, tricks and anecdotes for the next generation of Hollywood hopefuls.
