Day 139

Some cool things have happened since day 100. 

• I completed work on an interesting freelance animation project.

• Illustrated my first children’s book.  Also a freelance job.

Not long after Day 0 I saw a video of Glen Keane, a great animator who recently retired from Disney.  After  30 years of working for a major corporation he wanted to explore the ART of animation. 

• Here is a brief video I edited with some interesting advice and relatable situations.

• You will hear from Mary Costa, the voice of Sleeping Beauty share what Walt Disney told her. 

• You’ll also hear Mr. Keane talk about dealing with the new freedom he created for himself outside the comfortable walls of a corporation.  Interesting stuff.    

Below is the cover page for the story I illustrated.  It was drawn on paper (and re-drawn. . . and re-drawn again), scanned, and since I wanted to keep the pencil texture I opted not to draw a super clean line in Adobe Illustrator.  The color was applied in Photoshop.
