About Me
- Name: Mark
- Location: Studio City, California, United States
For the last 11 years, I've designed DVD menus and game pieces--and animated motion comics as well-- for companies such as Deluxe Digital and Technicolor Interactive; otherwise, I do my own designs and animations, and compose and record my own musical compositions. I have kept a journal since 1980. And the family and I still get down to the beach now and then (usually Venice).

I worked at Riverview in 1972. My buddy, the Chutes operator, knew how to take revenge on a snob. If he stood on the bow of the boat that was waiting in the passenger loading dock, the boat would lower, making the water in the watercourse rise. Then when the snob's boat came plunging down the Chute, instead of a light sprinkle, they would get drenched to the skin by the bigger splash. Ha ha.
My first kiss was here in this ride.
LOL
