<title>ZOO!</title>
<description><![CDATA[WOO HOO, ROAD TRIP… oh, wait.. No, no… Zoo Trip.
pandasoot01.jpg
Every so many quarters the students of the animation major collect at the Atlanta Zoo, and draw the hell out of pitiful caged up exotic animals. It’s kinda’ sad. I mean, I may be a vegan, and I’m no bleeding heart when it comes to animals. [...]]]></description>

<title>Fat guys, chairs, and punk-ska cults</title>
<description><![CDATA[meatpic01.jpg
No, don’t let the name of this post fool you…I’m just putting up some more animation and a new picture that I colored using my Sanoma-5/6. I’m really trying to get my digital ink and paint skills up to par with some of my fellow students. Some of these guys draw with tablets like they [...]]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[lypsincpic01_04.jpg
Last week I completed my Lip sync project in animation IV. For the most part I really like the way it turned out. I spent all weekend on it, but I’m not very good with a graphics tablet yet. My lines are a bit scratchy, but I think I was able to work in some [...]]]></description>

<title>Illusions Podcasts and myths</title>
<description><![CDATA[ephyV.jpg
Sometimes I sit here and think, “man I wish I had been born earlier” and when I say earlier I mean a good few years before I was actually born. I’m no spring chicken, but I just wish I could have been old enough to be able to sit at the foot of some of [...]]]></description>

<title>Digital revolution!</title>
<description><![CDATA[So, today I got a graphics tablet. Yep. But no, it’s not the Cintiq like I want, hell it’s not even a Intuos or even a Bamboo. It’s some off brand…well, off brand is harsh. Just because Wacom is like top of the totem pole doesn’t mean they’re the only show in town. It’s like [...]]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ed01_04.jpg
So, up next in my Animation IV class, we&#8217;re going to be doing lip sync tests. I&#8217;ve actually tried my hand at this, but went the limited animation route with it. Some things about limited animation I think are kin of cool. Many animators frown on it, but they fail to see that it is [...]]]></description>

<title>backgrounds, gestures, and insane animators</title>
<description><![CDATA[So, with a new quarter comes a new set of classes. I&#8217;ve been working on everything from CG sculptures of sea vessels from Dinotopia to struggling with composition in background designing. Clearly I excel more so in the character design category versus BG design. I&#8217;m not really one for all the ruler usage. I suppose [...]]]></description>

An here on July 19th 2008 the last chapter has been written. I feel that all good stories have a beginning a middle and an end. This was a good [...]]]></description>

<title>Bot 02</title>
<description><![CDATA[I like robots, and I like steam-punk. When I think of it, most of my stories are based in a steam-punk environment. How can you ignore all those gears and coal driven steam works?bot021.jpg

<title>Summer Quarter</title>
<description><![CDATA[I enjoyed my summer break, despite what my previous post may have lead anyone to believe. I really did. I’m finishing my short for the Man’Chen project that The Animation Society members have been working on. We’ve been promising animation for a few quarters now and so it’s finally time to deliver. Oh! I guess [...]]]></description>
