Recruiting starts...

Bonjour beautiful people,
This week recruiting the second years for our (our btw = myself and Sarah Lawrence aka http://paper-boat-animation.blogspot.com/) major project really got under way. We had already asked some of the tutors their picks of the second years so that we felt all professional and head hunter-y but what was awesome was that most of the names we were given were the lovely people that then volunteered to help us, cue tiny chuffed faces from myself and sarah.
Im so excited to really get going with our project and have a small army of equally enthusiastic people helping us with it,  I know we wouldn't be able to do it alone so thank you to everyone that wants to take part in our breakfasty adventure.
I will try and update regularly on our progress too,
Bye!

A new semester begins...

Hello everyone, I realise I haven't updated in a while but what with hand ins and then christmas at home with the family, its been a bit hectic; you know with all the food I had to eat and so on.
But it is a new semester and the work is already starting to mount up (eek). I have three main projects on the go: first is the major project which will be the love story between an egg and her toasty solider set in a 1930's burlesque club. For this I am attempting a full stop motion set and multiple puppets for the first time, as well as hopefully having a team of second years to help me out.
The second project is a website animation with quite a considerable amount of lip synch and design work to be done for it.
But the third project which I found out about only this very afternoon is a project with Barry Purves (I know... awesome huh). Its going to be alot of work but I just couldn't turn the last project down as I knew I would regret it.
Looks like theres going to be alot of sleepless nights in the near future for me... not that I'm complaining it will be fun, I will make it fun goddamn it!
Wish me luck!
