Sally's desk. The only colour in the office is this little corner and Sally's hair.
I ruined this a little. Also the people in the photograph look awful XD

Dancing Shapes

Just remembered today that my next theory module is "reading animation". This made me excited and enthusiastic about animation again.

This animation by Len Lye always reminds me of sitting in The Tate watching videos on loop:



The white line also reminds me of The Soundtrack part of Disney's Fantasia. I watched that again today too on video cassete. Yes I still own a video player.

Apparently the Toccata und Fuge sequence is abstract animation. I tend to disagree and say that it is, at most, semi-abstract; but semi-abstract isn't really actually a thing ... is it?

Return To The Sea

So Christmas is over.
It was fun and possibly the best for a while now.

I had a great and, in my opinion, well deserved rest.
Now it's back to work.

Here's a little look at the project I am working on at the moment:

and a quick digital colouring of one of the character designs:
