So, the first month at Double Negative is behind me and I have to admit I absolutely LOVE the place. Everyone is super friendly and helpful, the working environment is ultra inspirational and I am surrounded by a bunch of top notch animators who will sure help me bring my animation skills to the next level. I am also super excited about the project I am working now, which is "John Carter of Mars" directed by Pixar's Andrew Stanton. After seeing the work done so far, I can only say I am proud to be involved with this show.
As far as my next short film "Turf planet" is concerned, I have the story and most of the shots nailed down and I am slowly turning the storyboard into animatics. Yeah, things are a bit on the slow side at the moment, but they are moving.
