Inception- Teamwork

I would recommend  to everyone, and anyone to watch this. Even though the main points in this is for people in the audio industry, all kinds of professions can take away some really important things from this.

Even in the Shorts...

It would seem crafty old Pixar is still up to its tricks.


Is that product placement I see?

Animation Reference

A Vimeo group has been collecting hundreds of animation references free for use.  A great way to find timing, style, and silhouettes, on actions broad and small.

Animation in IRL?

And you thought animating in flash and maya was hard... These guys learned how to animate AND vandalize.  If thats not a sign of true greatness I don't know what is.  I would also like to point out that this video has been out for two days and already has 89.3K views!

Animation Fun

Here is a link to a new up and coming website for Animations and Animators, YouAnimator.   A great resource to post your FINAL animation videos.  The website is for posting your final short films or comical animations, to share and grow.

Along with being a place to post final work for all too see, YouAnimator also has its own webcomic of sorts that it is working on.  They will supply you with rigs, dialogues, storylines,  and even the wav files, to create a short comic strip in an ever growing story.  This can be a great resource if you're working on lip syncs and do not know what to do or how to do it,  Its all there for you!  Not only are you hand fed the script, when you finish you will become a part of a much larger story that others will want to watch and enjoy.  A great way to be discovered and hired!
