Blog Entry: Hello everybody! Just what the world needs -- another blog! Well, let me introduce myself. I'm an old English geezer who has been interested in animation all his life. I went to art school in the sixties (yes, I DID inhale) and I've had a multitude of jobs, almost all of them involving art or computers or both. In recent times I've become increasingly interested in stop motion animation. I've been reading up on the subject, trying things out, stumbling around the internet, and here I am... My hard disks are littered with the debris of unfinished projects, so I'm trying to get some discipline into my work and adopt a (semi-)progessional production schedule. At present I am writing a series of short (3-minute) Hellboy fan movies, using action figures. I find that writing a script, then drawing out a storyboard, means I have the best chance of finishing anything. I don't want to say too much in advance of showing anything, because for me, it is then as though I have already done it, in a funny way! So I'll be uploading some tests in the coming days -- look forward to any criticism/comments. Over and out. J
