blogtastic

Here I am. Probably the first animation artist ever to start a blog.
Ever.

I had once read that Lotte Reiniger, while making "Prince Achmed", kept a production journal. She would write journal entries and attach discarded pieces of Achmed, then tenderly placed them in a bottle and set them adrift on the Rhine (actually called 'Das Internet' in 1926).

Since then= 'Ziltch'.... Until now...

Maybe other animation artists can follow my Buzz Aldrinian lead.


..my little piece of Achmed

listening to; "Psen" by Funkstorung
mood; groundbreaking

Show me the way unc, & I will follow. Let's explore new galaxies together! "We're heading for Venus, and still we stand tall. Cause maybe they've seen us, and welcome us all. With so many light years to go, and things to be found (to be fowowownd). I'm sure that we'll all miss her so... It's the FINAL COWNTDOWN!" Cue the trumpets baby cuz that's how we do!
Sincerely- Jared
