Some Days Are Bug Days Animation Process: Script & Storyboard
I’ve heard that some people would like to know the process I go through for my animations. So in this series of posts, I’ll do my best to show you all.
Happy New Year! 2015
Well, 2014 sure was a fun year! I got to meet some great people in animation, set things up for some great independent projects this year and witness some spectacular moments.
I had fun at Reel Spirit this last year teaching kids a little bit about traditional animation. While there, I also got to meet the current voice of Mickey Mouse, Bret Iwan. That was swell!
Then came the Kansas City Film Fest which had a great focus on animation this last year. I got to meet and hang out with the King of Indie Animation, Bill Plympton. And thanks to my friend Scott, we got a personalized tour of Thomas Hart Benton’s paintings at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. Thank you Scott! Thomas Hart Benton is one of his favorite artists and he said Benton’s work has influenced his own. I hope one day he’ll be able to come back and give a talk about that at the Nelson-Atkins. Are you listening to this folks over at the Nelson-Atkins?
Congrats to the Royals, the 2014 ALCS Champs!
I’ve grown up as a fan of the Royals. I am still rubbing my eyes in disbelief that they have finally made their way back to the World Series … and in such a fantastic way!
Happy New Year 2014
Last year was the first year under the new studio name, Flipt Pictures. It was a lot of setting things up but it has also been a lot of fun playing around with the new name, logo and branding. It was also great fun to get to meet and work with such wonderful and creative people this last year on a variety of projects. That is hopefully a trend that continues this year. There are already some great things in the works. So it looks good!
