*UPDATED* Uber ships off animator to CliffyB and Epic

February 3rd, 2010

Earlier this week Uber released a video featuring AZO our resident animator on Monday Night Combat for XBLA and Part Time Wall Running Ninja.

After the video went out to the masses CliffyB from Epic had this to say:

http://bit.ly/9voOg1 – Hey, awesome animator guy will you please come work at Epic?


Being big fans of CliffyB and his fast cars and cookies, we had no choice but to oblige his request.  How could you not, its CliffyB!! <3   So we’re all saying goodbye to AZO as we pack him up with enough food for the three week boat ride to lovely Cary, North Carolina.  Wish you well AZO and we can’t wait to see what you do with Gears of War 6.

Uber ships animator off to Epic and CliffyB

**UPDATE**

Apparently we forgot to put enough $0.41 cent stamps on AZO’s shipping box.  So after several weeks traveling across the US and almost to Cary, North Carolina, he was shipped back to us.  AZO told us it was a fun trip but he enjoys working at Uber.  He’s decided to stay as long as we keep paying him in cardboard boxes.

We started getting pictures back from his trip from various people across the US, so if you spotted him please post your pics on our forum here:
