Would be the sweetest thing, 'twould make me sing

Started animating over the weekend after losing a battle with the backgrounds(I'll conquer them soon enough---no fears) and can now say I have 1 of 25 scenes done! Sadly, not posting this elusive scene, however photos are following:


Here's the pile along with the first of the x-sheets. All 103 drawings. :)

A reject drawing that is not in the pile posted above. Though the action is still very much the same.

And this dear blog-readers is an official copyright document and basically says I own the rights to Tubby Tabby Productions, meaning, I have a production company. See Mom it arrived in one piece. ;) Thanks again Santa! And the rest of the artwork is a small glimpse into my wall o' film inspiration. Movies backgrounds include: 101 Dalmatians, Aristocats, and Sword in the Stone.

It feels really good to be back in the swing of things, can't even explain the feeling of animating on paper, but I love it and feel right at home spending my weekends animating a mean ol' cat and a obsessive old man. :) The word excited is the understatement of the year. Anyways, another busy week at CalArts is upon me so ttfn...

Really cool update Jen. I'm excited to see your film. Those BG's kick ass btw. I saved them before I knew they were used for your inspiration. Haha.
