My first 30 days as an animator - Day 12
This is it! Toy Story 3 is out today! It’s a definite
must go see. Rumor has it that we will go watch it as
a studio next week Friday so I’m not going to spoil
my appetite. 
In other animation related news I
got my shot’s blocking approved, the stereo guy
setup his camera and I got the go ahead for the
next part which is adding in-betweens and
splining. Plan on going in to work tomorrow to
catch up a bit for I’m a bit behind with my
struggles with getting the scene set up for the
first time. And also what controls to animate
for the camera.
We’ve also been briefed about the next scene, the one we would have originally done. Lots of action scenes, not much acting. Nice!

Toy Story 3 Official Trailer!!!

The official version of the Toy Story 3 trailer is
out now! Get it while it’s hot.
I finally saw Up!!
I finally managed to go see Up, and in 3D as well. Wow, it was so damn awesome. Dug with his “SQUIRREL!!!” and “POINT!!” had me in stitches. The whole story line was also very well thought out and endearing.
Then I also went to see District 9. I have to admit, I was quite surprised at how well District 9 turned out. Even though it’s a “local” film, the story wasn’t that bad at all. It was quite a refreshing difference compared to other aliens-invaded-earth-OMG films.
I also managed to squeeze in G-Force. It was also very well done and I enjoyed it for it’s entertainment value. Just being able to switch off, relax and enjoy it was a good break from my animation studies.
And a friend of mine gave me The Iron Giant on DVD. I’ve enjoyed it tremendously and will definitely use it as reference during my AM studies. Thanks Leigh-Ann!!

Disney - Pixar's movie "Up" on it's way!
16/12/08 10:14 Filed in: Animation
From Disney*Pixar comes “Up,” a comedy adventure about 78 year old balloon salesman Carl Fredericksen, who finally fulfills his lifelong dream of a great adventure when he ties thousands of balloons to his house and flies away to the wilds of South America. But he discovers all too late that his biggest nightmare has stowed away on the trip: an overly optimistic 8-year-old Wilderness Explorer named Russell. From the Academy Award(r)-nominated director Pete Docter (Monsters, Inc.), Disney*Pixar’s Up invites you on a hilarious journey into a lost world, with the least likely duo on Earth.

G-Force Trailer
31/01/09 10:24 Filed in: Animation
Stumbled upon this trailer for a movie called GForce. It's about guinea pigs used by the government trained to do covert espionage. Equipped with the latest high-tech spy gadgets this can only be one comedy adventure not to be missed. Interestingly it's produced by Jerry Bruckheimer (who brought us such movies/TV Shows as CSI, Pirates of the Caribbean, Black Hawk Down, Gone in Sixty Seconds etc.) so it would be a must-see movie come July 24 2009.
