Today we offer two new pieces of eCard art with a little insight from Justin, the artist who created them. Send the Cheer Up eCard here and the Good Luck eCard here! “After taking a careful look at our site me and Trish were alarmed at the lack of creepy clown content available to our…

Last week we had Monica from the Venice Beach Freakshow in the studio for our artists to brush up on their life-drawing skills. The cool part? She brought her snake! This marks the first real live serpent that we’ve had within our walls. That we know of.

Last week was bittersweet as two of our staffers set sail from the JibJab offices to work for us remotely in locations outside of Venice, CA. We were sad to not have Johan and Amanda’s smiling faces around the office, so a few weeks ago we tricked them into posing for some full body photos…

Lauren, our beyond incredible Production Director, sends out a ridiculously thorough email to the team when we launch new content.  For our St. Patrick’s Day launch, things were no different. Here is a taste of what we see in our inboxes when new content becomes available.

In order to keep on the technical up-and-up, we are consistently splitting up and visiting as many conventions as possible. We follow animation very closely, as well as social networks, internet trends, interactive technology and anything having to do with taking, uploading, manipulating and storing photos. Today we’ve got a crew of four at the…

Most of the people at JibJab have fun little toys on our desks. Some display ridiculous props from our videos, while others feature favorite cartoon characters and action figures. But nobody’s collection comes even close to Dave on our design team, whose love for all things anime and geek have resulted in a collection that…

We call the question-mark faces “ghostheads” here at the JibJab offices, and they consist of current JibJab employees, past JibJab employees, friends, family…

Building an interactive website is tricky stuff, you’ve got to account for where people end up if they create an eCard, allow them to loop around back to the start, let them branch off into social networks or gift stores and account for if they are logged into the site, members or non-members, Facebook connect…

Sometimes we need to update our database with a horde of new heads for use as background characters in videos, or just to update our business cards (which feature our faces). So we call impromptu photoshoots and nab a variety of photos for every occasion. Here is Phillip displaying a range of emotions that would…

Managing 40 computers of all shapes, makes and sizes is no easy task. Something is always buzzing, beeping or generally on the fritz and we’re lucky to have Mark around for when things go awry. When Mark isn’t working like crazy to keep our network alive at our datacenter, he is always ready to get…

Hail pelted the skylights above our studio today and caused a bit of a ruckus as our staff ran to catch a rare glimpse of ice falling from the sky in Southern California.  Meanwhile, a week’s worth of torrential downpour has caused random power outages in our building, shutting down our computers more than a…
