A JibJab Panel at SXSW? Yes Please!

August 18, 2010 – 5:11 pm

SXSW, the conference/festival for everything interactive, film and music held an open call for panel ideas this summer, which we could not resist. There are a few thousand entries for panels to be held at the interactive portion of the fest, and we think we’ve got something that’s never been done before, a panel that […]

2006 Flashback: Double Rainbow All the Way!

July 30, 2010 – 4:57 pm

Double rainbows were just as incredible four years ago as they are today.  Back in 2006, our whole office had to step outdoors to catch a glimpse of a rare spectacle in Southern California, where it hardly rains at all!  It’s so intense…

Intern Inception

July 27, 2010 – 5:40 pm

This summer we have had four amazing interns helping us out on the production side of the offices.   They’re either really motivated, dedicated or just bored with anything that’s not animation.  It’s not surprising to see them pulling late nights, or even early mornings… which opens them up to a bit of embarrasment every once […]

Rest, Relaxation and Rollercoasters

May 11, 2010 – 4:34 pm

After working ourselves into the ground to bring Star Wars to the world, the team got a pleasant surprise, in the form of a trip to 6 Flags Magic Mountain!  Witness some of our hijinks on video.

The Team

April 13, 2010 – 6:02 pm

We took a new team photo (our first in over a year) with our JibJab shirts on, the most stylish accessory since the handlebar moustache.

Snuggie in the House

February 23, 2010 – 9:22 am

In the JibJab offices, temperatures are temperamental. It can be sweltering hot in here one day, freezing cold the next. While we’ve been moving fans around and eating frozen lemonade, Maureen has the right idea. She’s been boldly rocking the pink Snuggie at work all day as she renders videos out for us.

Stress Balls

November 4, 2009 – 5:48 pm

We are in insane crunch mode right now as tech and art are wrapped for the holiday season.  Nights are late, mornings are early and it can get pretty intense.  So we started throwing these balls at each other.  It’s cathartic!  In fact, your blogger may have had a ball thrown at him after taking […]

Intern Appreciation

September 4, 2009 – 1:12 pm

As the summer winds down, our amazing squad of summer interns are going their separate ways, back to schools that are located far too far away from JibJab for our tastes. While we get over our empty nest syndrome, we saw off our summer staffers with framed personalized certificates. Thanks for the incredible work guys! […]

Experimental Jabbery

August 28, 2009 – 5:13 pm

In keeping with our weekly goal to further ourselves by sharing tips, tricks and skills with each other, we recently had an in-studio workshop where our very own Maureen put her degree to use and taught us everything she knew about handmade film. After showing the class some examples of other artists at work in […]

Insert Inserts Here

August 27, 2009 – 6:16 pm

There’s nothing we value more at JibJab than outside-the-monitor thinking. That’s why Gregg, our co-founder, was so excited to see a collection of magazine subscription inserts spread out across our product manager’s desk this morning.  Johan has been working on ways to better communicate the value of a JibJab Membership at checkout and rather than […]

Sun, Sand, Sandwiches!

August 21, 2009 – 4:56 pm

The JibJab studio is a mere two blocks from the beach, so we love popping over to the shore and eating by the sea on our lunch breaks.  Usually we get so busy here that we don’t the chance to beach it up as often as we’d like, so today we had a little company […]

Blog Cabin

August 13, 2009 – 7:44 pm

The JibJab office is always beyond hectic.  That’s why every few months Gregg and Evan head somewhere a bit more remote to get away from the day to day craziness of running a web business.  Their go-to spot is always Lake Arrowhead.  It’s close enough to LA that they can drive but it still feels […]

The Kudos Wheel Revealed!

August 5, 2009 – 6:20 pm

Regular readers of this blog will know that early this summer we launched a unique inter-office encouragement system called KudoBot. You can read all about it here but, in a nutshell, if anyone in the company does anything you think is cool, you can log into our internal system and give them Kudos.  Every morning, […]

C.N.R. B.T.S.!

August 4, 2009 – 5:19 pm

We’re going to give you a few good peeks behind the scenes this week, highlighting the fun we had making Weird Al’s new video “CNR”.  The first comes from our green screen, where Devin, Glenn and our crew played the badass body of Mr. Reilly himself.  It’s not every day you’re told to act like […]
