Lotties Head Shot

Here is a picture of Lotties head shot. She got them made when she got a part in a film. The one on the right was after Nine drew on it after he got relegated to Lotties stand in. He was a bit miffed really.

New Design?

Hmm, shall I do a new design for this blog or leave it alone? I have left it nice and simple for a reason, so as to not distract from all the lovely artwork. I have added a new devise on the side so you can see another picture everyday and also Driver Dan's twitters. What do you think? ... anyone?

A Tweenies Cycle

Morning. Well as the previous Goat cycles and The Tweenies pictures has proved popular, here is a Tweenies cycle! Genius!
This is a dance cycle for Bella from one of the animated inserts we did. This was animated by Mr Phil.
We worked on most of the series so any animation or effects that appeared in it, that was us. Way back when we were A for Animation.

Dusty's Car

Morning. Here is the model sheet for Dusty's car in the series we did for Cog and HIT called Dusty and Musty. This is showing the computer model but there were situations when the car was animated in Flash. So we have to make sure the Flash animated car matches the computer model of the car. It was rather complicated as you can imagine. Especially the sequence where Dusty was in the car jumping it over a very big pile of books.... in perspective!! Mr Tom animated that sequence. It was rather special.

Community Champions

Here is a still from the advertising videos we just animated for the brilliant Heavenly company for the Community Channel Champions Awards. Clicky here to watch it and hear the lovely Esther.
The broadcast picture has a nice chalky look to it like the still above which you can't see on the you tube vid. Animated by Miss Jane (me) in Flash and composited by Mr Paul (not me) in After Effects.
