I listen to the voices in my head. The difficulty is to get them all to speak one at a time.

I don't see the humour. What gets me is the dialog. The amount of it, but beyond that, it just isn't believable. Others have discussed cutting down the dialogue, and I will not rehash that, but look at the conversation. First, the conversation seems to be between two teenagers trying to be "Hip...

Great work there. I am surprised no one has commented on it. It is at Pixars level. This is both a compliment to you, and a push for better. I have never believed that Pixar was great at animation. Their base in computers has been blatant movie after movie. They have few if any animators who...

As someone who has been through it all, I would recommend trying to get a position in a real animation company. All companies used to train you on the job, and even now, many companies around the world (including Disney) still prefer to train on the job. Some of these places do not like trained...

Thanks for the welcome guys. It will take a while to get back into the swing of things, but other than building the contacts again, it all seems easier this time.

What should you look for in a camera? How long is a piece of string? First, even a cheap camera can produce reasonable footage if you learn what you are doing. Local theater groups are a good place to volunteer as a lighting stagehand. Bad and insufficient lighting can make a great camera give...

There are many ways to remain focused. I personally like to keep a text file on my main machine (that is backed up every few days) that is a scratch pad. I type only the most brief explanations of my random ideas so it clears me to concentrate on what I am working on. Months later I return to...

An old hand getting back into the game. I am based in Queensland Australia. I started in the industry a long time ago as an animator and computer animator back when you could count the people doing 2D animation on computer around the world on your fingers. I have held many positions. Tweener...

I hope I am not hijacking. I hope I am not hijacking the thread, but to stop any duplicate threads I thought it may be best to ask about the HV-40 here. I have been looking at recommendations and specifications of the HV-40, but being in an area that Canon does not service well, I find that...
