Dinner at Marvin's
All Marvin wants is to get some sleep. It just so happens, however, that a little mosquito named Zip has other plans - and they do not include peace and quiet. But Zip means no harm. After all, he is just an ordinary father with a hungry family to answer to. Unfortunately, Marvin just happens to be the main course. And it's dinnertime.

Jane Nechayevsky
Though Jane has been animating for only the past four years, she entered the field when she was just a tiny girl living in Russia, watching her favorite cartoons for hours and drawing incessantly. Since then, she has accumulated over 22 years of animation viewing experience and enough passion to keep her going during those long nights of staring into a computer screen, waiting for scenes to render. In fact, her fellow animators know her simply as "that girl who stays up working day and night." But despite her workaholic tendencies, Jane still manages to watch every film – especially animated – released in theaters. Jane graduated from Tisch in 2004 and Dinner at Marvin's marks her very first contribution to the fantabulous world of 3D Computer Animation. She is currently employed as a Digital Layout Artist and Animator at Little Airplane Productions in New York City. One day, Jane hopes to be successful enough that everyone will remember how to spell "Nechayevsky."
