Oscars!

Very happy that Ratatouille won the Oscar for best Animated Film last night. Even happier that Peter & the Wolf won for best short! It's incredible. If anyone knows where to find it on DVD for the US, let me know. I'm very curious what materials they used to make their characters, and what their dimensions are. How did they get the wolf's lip to curl like that? Many questions.


Working on some little animations of my own, I don't want to get rusty while I'm on leave! I'll be posting a thing or two soon. :)

edit: I had embedded the video to Peter and the Wolf, but it's been since taken off Youtube again, so I removed it. If they don't want it up on the net, it's understandable. I just wish they would release a US DVD!

LOA :(

I made a really tough decision today. I have bronchitis, and I've fallen way behind in the last 2 weeks. This week we have to do video reference for a pole jump, and I just can't do it. :( Sucks, sucks, sucks. I don't want to leave AM for 8 weeks. But I also don't want to turn in work late, or let my work suffer because I'm not learning as well as I should be. Sucks. I'm really going to miss it, and being a Peer Buddy, and everything. Spring seems so far away! The light at the end of the tunnel is that they're holding my funds, so I WILL be back. But I will miss it until then. :(
