Rough Animation by the Masters


I got this little bit of info from the Victor Ens blog. It has some really cool rough animation from some of the great animators. Glen Keane, Milt Kahl, and Ollie Johnson, just to name a few.

DAN AYKROYD IN HALIFAX





These are just a few pics taken from Paul, of Dan Aykroyd making a guest appearance last week at a small blues bar here in Halifax. A few of us went there for 7 to have some awesome ribs and beer and to chill out until the dan showed up. When he did (around 11), people went nuts and camera flashes were going all over the place. He went right up on stage, played one song, and then scooted out in the back. That was it?? One friggin song??? Oh well, at least we saw him, and his blues brothers car parked out front.

My Poncho Animation Short #2

This is the second short that I had to animate over at copernicus studios. Again, the bg's, special effects and sounds were all being done in Mexico at the time. I apologize for the sound being off. It happens sometimes when it goes thru YouTube and Im still trying to find a way of fixing it. I'll try and post the third short next week. Cheers!

GLEN KEANE LECTURE AT CAL ARTS

I found these on youtube of Glen Keane giving a lecture to students way back when Aladin was being made. He covers a lot of material that I found interesting, and useful. Just wanted to give the heads up that its really hard to see the images on the overhead projector because the filming was very old. Ahhh the classic VHS. Also, there are 13 parts to this lecture, about 4-5 minutes each, so I had no way to post them all up. If you want to see the rest of them, just type in glen keane in your search. On that note...enjoy!
