Play`n Catch Up:
Yesterday was spent in poster design. I have Mark Kausler coming into one of my classes and needed a poster to make the other Art and Animation classes on campus aware of his presence. I have known Mark for a long time but you really don`t know a filmmaker`s career until you look them up on the Internet. This is a closed event so I am not going to tell you any more about it. I will do Photos and a report after the fact.
This next event is open to everybody and a one-time opportunity. I speak of none other that Krazy Kat. This Saturday is the Jerry Beck AFI screening. Don`t miss this screening. Heaven and hell (they talk on a hotline) only knows when these cartoons will be screened again and there are no videos, DVDs, 16 mm, or 8 mm copies. This is you one chance don`t blow it.
Titles to be screened include:
RATSKIN (1929)
PORT WHINES (1929)
FARM RELIEF (1929)
SLOW BEAU (1930)
JAZZ RHYTHM (1930)

Been jumping through hoops with the Annie pre-judging for Gaming, This is the first year for this category and it seems to need a lot of help abirthing.
Last Friday was the juried award meeting and I am pleased with the way it went. More on that when the announcements are made.
Currently watching James and the Giant Peach forgot how surreal and just plan good it is.
I am starting to hunt up a video crew for the Annies. Last year it was all last minute because that was when I found out that nobody was going to film the event. This year we are not going to make the same mistake and just grab warm bodies and hand them a camera. This year I am approaching film and TV programs. Which is what I will be doing today.
Remember, the ASIFA Animation Archives (AAA? no) is open today. 1 PM to 9 PM. The stuff going on there is great. It really is starting to come together. Every time I walk into 2114 W. Burbank Blvd now days I am bowled over by the changes. ¶ 7:05 AM
