Creative Titles are Hard

What gloriousness is this! Where the Wild Things are Trailer:





Not only do they use one of my favorite Arcade Fire songs, but that font is incredible isn't it? I can't wait to see the whole thing!

I've been drawing like a madman. Or is that a bored man? I do not know.








And! I finally figured out where my animation is going. Which is always a good thing. I still have to do it, but the hard part is always figuring out how to do it.

I have to make another movie. But before my loyal actors start groaning, I need to inform you that, for once, I'm not going to be able to use any of you because I have to film over spring break, and I'm going to be in Virginia for that entire period. If it makes you feel any better, it's probably going to be one of my more..bad.. films.


Things have been weird at Chapman. I think my school enthusiasm is starting to taper off due to the growing need for a break of some kind.

I need to start applying for jobs soon too. It's kind of sad that I haven't had any real employment yet. I don't know where I want to work, and I'm not sure if anyone would really want me.

And I keep thinking about next year. Because I have no idea how it's going to work. I'm going to live off campus with my grandpa, but I don't feel like I know him that well. And living with him raises a bunch of interesting questions, like..where/how do I eat? Do I still go home on weekends? How late can I stay up? What if I have night class? What do I do when I'm bored?

And then the year after that. Study abroad.. The more I commit myself to it, the more it seems impossible that I can pull it off. And then what. When I graduate, where do I go? What if I still suck at animation? What if I don't even want to do animation anymore? Where do I live?

So many questions.


I took some pictures of Glory, the dog.







They make me laugh.

  2. This will be the first time i won't be in a James Beck movie. I've groaned about making them before, but now Ive grown accustomed to being in them and enjoy making them. O well. You've been asking a lot of life questions lately i see. Don't stress out too much about it. just roll with it. If you can overcome the stress, you can overcome anything! --my senior quote

  3. There isn't any speaking in the next movie anyways..

    But after this one, the final project begins, which is going to be divided into three parts. So..hopefully you will all be available for three consecutive weekends. Is that even possible? Probably not. We'll have to plan it out.
