Call for Animators:
I love the Merv Newland Anijam that came out in 1984. I love it so much that I am jumping at the chance to do something kind of like it at this year`s San Diego Comic Con. We have a 2-D paperless animation system on loan from DreamWorks from Friday morning, July 21st until Sunday afternoon July 23rd.
Eric Goldberg has committed to some time animating on this puppy. David Burgess, the guy behind the hyperactive squirrel on caffeine in Over the Hedge, is committed to doing some work on this project. The ASIFA board are lining up top talent to hit the board. But we still need animators to sign up and do some animation.
If you are an animator and love to do 2-D, then here is your chance. It is going to be straight-ahead production, each animator doing a scene and leaving an ending pose for the animator coming after. We will be video taping the animators at work for exta features on the DVD.
It is free form animation, it is animation for the love of animation, it is fun, it is experimental, it is the way it was backin school. Come be part of this animation experience.
I will edit together whatever we have at the end of the weekend and make sure that each animator that took part in this animation jam gets a DVD of the finished animation.
Email me or stop by the ASIFA-Hollywood booth #5434 and sign up and join in the fun. Or just come by and watch the animators at work. ¶ 9:57 AM
