Lazy Blogger...

OK, so starting a blog sounds like fun when you are unemployed and not that busy, but when life gets interesting, blogs die... which has happened to mine... so here are some updates!

I started work full time at Torus Games some months ago, which has been busy. I am working with my mate Aidan from my Iloura days. Really friendly studio, great animation team. I am getting to do some TD stuff as well, which is cool.

I have started at Animation Mentor this week, which I am very excited about... not too much to report thus far, we haven't recieved any assignments yet, it is just the settling in period, but it seems promising... gonna be HARD WORK i think... Dimos is my mentor, I think he's gonna be great. Crazy Greek-Canadian chappy...

I am collaborating with an ex-colleague, Michael Elder, on a free xsi rig for animators (as the ones out there aren't that fash). Progress is slow ATM, but with god as my witness, I will get it done before I shuffle off this planet...

I also got to do some traveling to Brisbane and the Solomon Islands before I started at Torus, both of which are beautiful places. The Solomons is awesome, I can highly recomend it for people who are into adventurous, no frills holidays. I stayed with my mate who has been living there for 3 years. I have never seen so many fish in my life. Historic battlegrounds and beautiful people... I had a blast.

So thats a brief summary. My cancer is staying away too, so almost at the 2 year mark... things are looking promising! Roll on summer... and I will hopefully post a bit more regular like, as AM rolls on...
