    You WIll Need To Reset Your Password!!!

    We just moved hosts on this system, and this has caused a few updates. One is the way we encode and store the encoded passwords.

    Your old passwords will NOT work. You will need to reset your password. This is normal. Just click on reset password from the log in screen. Should be smooth as silk to do...

    Sorry for the hassle.

    Other Side Of Maleficent

    I have been looking forward to Maleficent with equal amounts of anticipation and dread. On one hand, she is easily my favorite Disney villain, so cold and so pure, and I want desperately to see more of her and her back-story. On the other hand, she is easily my favorite Disney villain, and I would hate to see her parodied, taken lightly or ultimately destroyed in a film that does not understand this great character. The good news is that this film almost gets it right; but that is also the bad news.

    Disney To Feast In France

    The follow up to Disney’s 2013 Academy Award Winning short Paperman has been announced, and it will premiere at France’s Annecy International Animated Film Festival. Titled The Feast, the short looks to be based on the same stylized CG techniques used on last years Paperman, a more natural and hand-drawn look to computer animation.

    Renegades of Animation: Pat Sullivan

    Pat Sullivan became famous worldwide for his creation of Felix the Cat. What most animation histories gloss over is Sullivan’s checkered past and longtime standing as a wildcat renegade. He didn’t follow the rules. And he made damn sure to fully protect his intellectual properties.

    ~ Hey, MrKlayMedia!

    You should be commended! Your tutorials are very well done. I'll be checking you out on YouTube. Do you have any recommendations in regards to purchasing After Effects? As you must know most independant type animators are hard up for cash and the program is a bit pricey. Just wondering.

    Hey Sidestreetsam! I would recommend starting out with Adobe Creative Cloud and either just buying the subscription for After Effects which is I believe $19.99/mo. The subscription gives you full access to updates and new versions. Or you may be able to find some older versions of After Effects, like CS5 - CS6. Though I recommend buying them from a trusted source, since serial numbers are involved.

    Also, here is Part 3 in the series! Covering the Run Cycle.



    Part 4 will be setting up a scene and moving the character around.
