Update!

In the past couple of months, I haven't posted any updates because I have been busy working on the most terrific animation contract: Open Season 3! I intend to start some new personal shots when I come back from Siggraph (next week!!!) and I am looking forward to post them here for your very precious feedback!

On another note, my little short film was featured in the June Animation Mentor Newsletter! What an honor!

As you might have noticed, I have been  taking it easy since the beginning of the month. I decided to take a break until the New Year. Since AM finished, I had not allowed myself to rest properly. I am looking forward to getting back to my shot and more life drawing in 2010!

In the mean time, the Vancouver Animation website made a nice little article about my short film!
