Time:09:20 am
There are a lot of Obama videos out there. Some have made me cry, many have inspired me, but this one made me laugh. There's no serious political message here-just some dancing and pseudo-singing. It was the perfect way to start my morning!

Subject:3038 Photos in 3 Days
Time:06:11 am

A kid in Boston, Robbie, took just over 3000 digital photos in three days documenting his life in and around the city, and then compiled them into the animated film below. The life he documents is hardly extraordinary (lots and lots of public transport), and yet the film manages to evoke an emotional reaction by offering an intimate glimpse into one guy’s personal life. If not necessarily an original idea, it’s still a well done experimental film.

Subject:Assorted Liquors and the cartoon production system
Time:01:37 am
To satisfy popular demand, I have posted more sneak peeks at the new George Liquor Show...

Thought you might like to see the stages of art production that happen before animation and what the difference in drawing approaches are.
Storyboards are rough. Their purpose is to tell the story, make the characters seem spontaneous and have a lot of guts.
A storyboard artist doesn't need to draw "on

Subject:Possibly saved from buying sheet metal
Time:12:56 am
I remembered I had liquid sculpey. So...I'm going to try the wing design in multiple layers of paper, coated and baked and wired into the pony.

I have, you may like to note, never used liquid sculpey. So I have no idea whether this will work. But I have it on good authority the liquid sculpey is the medium of choice for most transparent wings and you can bake it on paper...

(And if I like the design, sheet metal wings are still not out of the question. And neither are stained glass type wings. I actually bought stained glass chips a while ago with that idea in mind, so don't think I'm kidding about this...)

Eva and Franco Mattes

Pooh plays the role of Gulliver, Mickey has hung himself, Superman is a painter, and a cellphone has been kidnapped by the Grinch. These are some of the images in “It’s always six o’clock,” a gallery exhibition by Eva and Franco Mattes aka 0100101110101101.ORG. Similar to Toy Story, the show offers an interesting new way of looking at everyday toys and dolls. Exhibition photos are here.

Subject:Mass Animation Project Pays
Time:11:37 pm

Mass Animation

Some happy news to report today. The Mass Animation project that we mentioned here last week released a new set of details today on their Facebook page. Notably among those details is that every artist whose work is used for the short will be compensated financially. Granted that the project is still structured like a contest and there’s a chance that the work you create won’t be used in the film (hence no compensation), but at least the artists whose work wins approval will receive something for their effort. Exploring new production models based on online collaboration is a worthy cause as long as it’s not done on the backs of artists, and I’m glad that we can now show some support behind a contest like Mass Animation.

Magnum Force was the first of the sequels to the film Dirty Harry, starring Clint Eastwood as maverick cop Harry Callahan. The film was released in 1973 and directed by Ted Post, who also directed Clint in TV's Rawhide and the feature film Hang 'Em High. The screenplay was written by John Milius (who provided an uncredited rewrite for the original film) and Michael Cimino.

1)Do you like gangster movies?
2)What is your favorite gangster flick
3)favorite scene
4)favorite gangster,real or fictional example-bugsy seagle and Henry Hill were real gangsters so was al capone, the corleone family was fictional so was tony mazetti(voiced by ray liotta) from vice city in fact he was a cartoon
cartoon gangster
i mention this because some fictional charactors become so legendary, like Tony Montana
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Montana
or Don Corleone
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vito_Corleone
we sometomes might blur the concept of real and fictional
5)Which charactor in fiction seems most real to you?
for example is this bogart who is real or rick blaine who is fictional but legenday?

There's a cricket somewhere in my office. If I find you, cricket, you are dead.

Back to the website now...still editing pictures. I'm hoping to get the picture part done so we can get the RF section "live" at some point before my hair goes grey. I already got the fun section up (it's for tours, quizlets, neat websites that don't really fit elsewhere...) Only three fun things so far, but the tours are still in progress...

ETA: And I just gave a tour to two kids and their stressed out dad. I was there to preoccupy them while the girl forgot about the bouncy ball she lost. Oh my. I'm never having kids. Somehow when kittens play and climb on things they oughtn't, it's cute. When kids do it...not so much.

ETA 2: OMG I'm getting house tour calls already. Waaaaaaaaaah!!!

Subject:Some Things Milt Gross Excels At
Time:02:58 am
I think Milt Gross is probably the most all around talented cartoonist in history. Many great cartoonists are known for certain distinct skills or unique traits. Gross had a ton of rare skills.

CHARACTER DESIGN
Oddly, many of Milt Gross' main characters were fairly indistinct basic 30s style comic strip characters. He used more imagination in the designs of incidental characters.

Subject:Bolt: Storyboard vs. CG
Time:08:25 pm

Bolt

AICN recently posted the above two images as part of a preview of Disney’s Bolt. So, as I understand the animation process at Disney, here is how you translate a board drawing into a final CG film frame:

1. Remove all the funny shapes in the character design and turn the character into a nondescript blob.

2. Take out any asymmetry (like the angles on the arms) and even out the pose.

3. Tone down the funny expressions.

4. Just in case there is any appeal still left in the CG model, add flat lighting and excessive texturing so the characters and background mesh into an indistinguishable dark muck.

5. Repeat this process until you have blown $150 million dollars.

Subject:Explained, at long last: all those tire dimension numbers!
Time:04:00 am
Dear Tom and Ray: I recently bought a 1966 Volkswagen Bus Sundial Camper and noticed that it has a set of 205/75/R14 tires on the front and a set of 185/75/R14 tires on the back. I don't know how long it was driven this way by the prior owner. Is this dangerous? Could it have caused damage to the Bus? Of course, I am not going to leave them that way! The info I can find says the correct tire size is 195/75/R14. If you put on tires bigger or smaller than recommended by the manufacturer, will the odometer be able to accurately record the number of miles you've traveled? One revolution of a larger tire will cover more ground than one revolution of a smaller one, and it's the revolutions that make the odometer rack up the miles, right? Not that it matters much in a car of this vintage, but over 40 years, the extra miles on or off the engine could really add up. Just wondering. -- Joan
