We had our second (and last!) shoot for Werewolf on Saturday. Here are some lovely details of the pages Gabriel created for the shoot:

And a behind-the-scenes video:

And some stills:

Next up: editing the footage and adding MAGIC in AfterEffects.

We were delighted to shoot again with Katie Strand.

We're continuing work on Night of the Hunter (1956), we have a tentative narrative, the text transcribed, and will turn out moodboards this week.

We got back the headshots taken by the talented Galen Andrus.

Here's the moodboard we gave him:

And the final results:

NOT BAD AT ALL.

We also attended a motion graphics lecture at Adobe.

But first, we had dinner at Two Shoe BBQ in Frelard. We're off the sauce for the month of January, but still know how to party...

Ahem.

Back to the lecture. The brilliant (and stand-up human) Jorge R Canedo Estrada spoke to a packed room – Here's his reel:

Pretty cool, right??

We learned a lot and got a lot of tips and cool sites––and we're sharing them with you since you couldn't go :)

Here's another cool, useful thing he made:

Inspirational sites:

Wine after Coffee - animation & motion channel curated daily by the best animators. Here's an example:

Learn Squared - tutorial site; Jorge has one on here that we'd love to take:

Super cool design houses where Jorge worked:

And last but not least: 5 Alarm - a website that Jorge was saying is a sad alternative to custom composed music (but implied it was better than the free shit we've all been using.) Bookmarked!

Not a bad week, all in all.*

*we did not make it to the gym. not even once.
