Richard Williams: The Animator's Survival Kit

W-W-WHY IS IT IN VANCOUVER?!?!?!?!

;__; I want to go, and I'm not even an animator.That guy's book is amazing. I own a copy. It's fantastic. It's readable. And it makes sense to my non-animator mind. I... kind of want that DVD set too... AND I WANT TO SEE THE DUDE. I want to hear him speak. It's gotta be amazing, if his book is anything to go by. ( Read more... )

oh man, i'm definitely not an animator but I think it looks cool, (and super informative) too! gee, why does vancouver have to be so far away from everything? :| but the DVDs are probably cool... XDDD

NO KIDDING! And I even live in Canada. My tears are a never ending river of woe. haha Ah well. I'll survive. It just sucks because I'm usually pretty apathetic about going to talks/getting things signed/seeing famous people, and now that I've found someone I'd like to see, they're on the other side of the country. XD;;
Though I'll probably snag the DVDs when they come out. :D So it's not all bad.

Ah, Jane already taught us why technical skill isn't important enough to teach. Remember that art period not too long ago where everyone was amazed by traditional painters from Europe because in North America it wasn't being taught...because no one knew how to do it anymore? Well, we're still in that.

Yes, hence my "screw this program" comment. ;P Sometimes the whole "let's defy tradition" thing really backfires...

sorry this is totally off-topic, but I forgot to mention yesterday, that Saturday is extra-good for me because next Monday is the Monday that I work, so it's out anyway. so Saturday is pretty close to Monday. :)

Yay! So it all works out in the end. :D

random:

she probably already knows, but tell Sua that the new Kanjani8 PV is out.

It's kind of like if you took NewS's Weeeeek PV and Kanjani8's Wahhahha PV and ripped them off at the same time, but nevertheless it's very adorable and fun because they never fail to be crack ;P

if she's in the comm, it's here, but f-locked to members:

(if she's not in the comm I'm sure she has some other place she downloads from instead, but if not just ask ;P)
