Encounters

Another year of the Encounters Short Film Festival (Bristol) is over. Managed to go to a few screenings; where, in my opinion, the animation shown (though there seemed to be less focus) this year had a more consistent flow to it. Not generally amazing, but for a good/passable selection.

I was set to work on another little project that sounded like more fun and less pressure than other projects, but unfortunately ideas were changed and so we are no longer appropriate for it. Though I must admit I have got plenty of things to be getting on with, so such an opportunity can be spared right now!

I will try and post some imagery soon.

November, already?

Hello again, here's a few little updates:

My final film story has been through a lot of changes, though keeping the main idea, thankfully, which I think is good; I want to make it as good as I can at this stage, so every suggestion really helps. I can say for sure it will be a sequel to 'The Little Red Hen', the fable you may or may not have heard as a youngster about a chicken who makes bread, asks for a pig, cat and dog's help each time, gets none; then when she's made it, these three animals want some but are declined. My continuation of this story is a tad on the dark side... (More again at a later date.)

Projects/Opportunities:

RAM projects ideas are underway. Ideas loosely based from our hat-picked word, 'Acedia'.

SS Great Britain project we had interviews a few weeks back. I know for sure I have been accepted as an animator in part three of the documentary. (Oh crumbs, must sharpen up my animating skills!)

Opportunity has arisen for an abroad Festival trip where even third years are invited; so here's hoping for the more conveniently dated MONSTRA, Lisbon (Portugal) festival to be chosen. We also hope to look into submitting ALICE to it.

Doubtless I have forgotten something...

Time for some silly doodles again! (They were starting to clog up my Mac, waiting to be put on here.)






(Done just after ALICE completion, actually. Yes, I know she should show the most recent drawings...)
