Eric Lutha is coming out with another How to Cheat in Maya book and it's also featuring one of my mentor's Kenny Roy. The last book was amazing and helped me through a lot of problems I was having in just understanding certain part's of Maya and in my animation. I can't wait to get this and you should get it A.S.A.P!!!

Busy bee

Hello all, I am back. I was pretty busy with work and trying to meet deadlines but I should be alright and should get back to a normal posting schedule. A lot has happened since I last posted in the animation news and I will try and post as much as I can in this upcoming week to catch up. Movie update: I saw Blue Sky's "Rio" what a great job they did with this film. I mean story was great, it was funny, animation was great,and it had a great ending. Also the Ice Age Scrat short I posted awhile back as amazing on the big screen and I really love that character. But enough about me to the good stuff.

My friend Faisal Naqvi and I did another podcast for Force Versus Form. This time we had our first guest-freelance animator Nicole Herr. She talks about how she got into the biz all the way to her last current job on "Green Lantern". Fes and I were very thankful that she took time out of her schedule to do the interview and she didn't disappoint. P.S. Also some great tips for all around animation!!
