New Books!

Yay! Stop-motion birthday's are the best - I now have Susannah Shaw's 'Stop Motion: Craft Skills for Model Animation', Barry Purves' 'Passion, Process and Performance', and 'Filming the Fantastic: A Guide to Visual Effects Cinematography' to keep me entertained! Great timing, I've got a few new big projects I really need to get going.

(Also now have 'Alien Apocalypse' too, but looks like I'll have to ebay 'Beyond Re-Animator')

Hi,

Came across your blog while reading your post on stopmotionanimation.com. I'll be following it to see the progress on your project. I like what I've seen so far.

Glad to see you picked up a copy of "Filming the Fantastic". It's a great read and I'm using it as a guide myself for the project I'm working on.

Beyond ReAnimator... complete Uggfest!!! Nothing at all like the classic movies! Prepare to be disappointed! Then it might not hurt so much.

That's a shame! The first two are very classic and I'm a big Combs fan - I can only imagine what 'House of Reanimator' would be like if it ever got made!
