The ident work has completed this week and after a short break, work resumed on location 1. Four species were examined and catalogued. A number of puppets are in construction on this at the moment.
A temporary lecturing post has been commenced and this has been very satisfying in a number of areas. This assignment completes on 31st May, and then it is off to Annecy Festival camping near the lake ...Bliss.
Today I joined a talk given by Chris Bowden from Mckinnon and Saunders. He was generous to share his skills and experience in the art of model making... The work is outstanding in this field. He has generously offered an invite to visit the studio in regards to the potential archiving work being undertaken, in the course of creating a British Animation Archive. Further details on this will be posted shortly.
At MobbsWood Studio a number of projects are underway relating to the gaining of a number of craft skills. These include oil on glass, linocut and screen printing, and the brazing of a new spider armature (images to follow shortly)
In addition a number of enquiries are being made into the role of Producer within the film and animation Industry. A number of contacts are being followed up and hopefully some insight will be gained into this area.
Seems like change is on the horizon... which is always a good thing.
