Only six more days of Tangled animation! I needed a bit of real media on my one day off this week. Went to paint up in the hills behind the hollywood bowl. They posed by the pool. The weather was incredible, 68 and partly cloudy. I, however, was rusty. I’m not quite happy with either of these, but I havent posted in a long time. As soon as the show finishes there will be much more. Each was from 3 20 minute sessions, so about an hour each total.
Painting from life outside remains difficult.
Some good advice on entering the animation business
I dont often make posts about disney or what I’m working on but I recently went back to ringling to recruit for our talent development program and noticed a few things about reels. Someone sent me this article today and he nails it. its the work… not the case and cover letter that lands the job.
Its a good article about landing your first animation gig, or breaking into a studio in general.

A little visual development on a spy story I’ve been working on
I spent much of my weekends recently doing some paintings for a vis dev audition at work… Not sure how the whole audition side of things is going to work out, its pretty much out of my hands now. I enjoyed the process regardless. Let me know what you think.
