Hey Guys!
here I am week 14 and Fresh from a Great break with the family.........

In LINE News - In the 10 days I had at Home I was able to do a couple of shots for the film

- this WAS very Rewarding - Going back to work on it was very Inspiring !! I feel like I could totally finish our film soooooo fast if I was able to work on the film full time....shootiing on 2's is like Warp speed compared to what I have been doing up in Portland.
here's a montage shot-Dober Hubcap - Ill be dropping one every post for a bit to get some animation back on the blog.
On LINE- Shel has been really spending alot of her time editing......and she is getting to the ROOTs of all our films chapters...its so exciting to see her slicing and dicing the footage....FINDING the film.

There are so many thrilling parts of film making......but finding the film when its being edited is one of the coolest!!
There are so many cool unexpected things that can happen and its just plain FUN to watch it puzzle together.
Shel Is also on Art Days working on the Mini Flea Ship ....keeping it modular for molding and making it look great all together!

Shel Finished the Mini Ship Window Bubble-for Dober's Ship

this is the BUCK for Dober's Ship- that we will have vacuformed to create the window......

Here is a pic of The Interns together for an Art Friday on my visit HOME.

Back In Portland-
the week back at Laika started with the most complicated and challenging shot I had ever done.
The Shot was one that I knew could be really cool if I could pull it off.........maybe even my best so far.....
it had a camera pull- moving about 3 feet where my puppet had to run toward-chase the camera and stay in focus range while making his way through insane dangers....
in short I did it and it now has the title for- my BEST animated shot ever award-{at least this week it does} ha!!
It seems every week or 2 I get a new champion

...thats not a bad thing at all....
The other element of this weeks success is that I am really starting to be able to do the job with a calm head.........being able to approach a shot with the confidence that 'I can totally do this' and {do it well}

makes a huge difference.
I am realizing alot of the experience I gained in our garage animating our films is really coming in handy.....the directors ask for things sometimes that I can directly pull from my experience on GLD or LINE.....and apply it to the shot. Like these food particals...for instance.
I think that the garage LOW BUDGET.....animation problem solving really was quite educational.
When I usually feel low experience compared to so many of my fellow animators its refreshing to know how to do somthing...ha!!
sooo looking into the future....I am excited to say I am Getting it-
I am starting to get 1's.....I am starting to feel the movement like i can on 2's...and slowing down my timing tendancies.....
I am now at 15 approved shots.....and My sequence is really coming together on the BIG screen....theres only 1 shot In my sequence that I am not happy with. Thats not too bad considering how New to this I am.
Trick of the Week-
