Remembering Miranda


I went to college with Miranda we bumped into each other alot in the library where she worked and in the print room. we shared common interests in music, film, art and each others work, we last met on her 24th- 25th birthday for a drink with her work friends will never forget she had the most beautiful smile and most distinctive laugh , will miss her very much R.I.P Miranda xxxx

a cloudy meatball message





I've now seen cloudy with a chance of meatballs and highly recommend this film, I hope to see more animated films like it, its simply beautifuly animated and well written,

it holds a great underlining message of great value to the real world today, we face a big problem of over consumption, " biting more than we can chew " as its put in the film, like pixars futuristic walle where earth is overwhelmed with our trash, this film homes in on the problem as it is today people just want more and its not good for us, I seriously hope more kids animated films are made like this one, it sets a great example for this generation , I love to see animation put to great use, its funny and also shows the kids watching that taking care of where you live as well as your loved ones is important. we need more animated films like this rather than filling kids heads with old fairytales that hold no value to the generation of today coughdisneycough

Torjus Erfjord

I was lucky enough to work along side a brilliant animation student last year, Torjus is from norway and has a great talent for both music and animation, here is a college video he wrote music for and helped make I came across on his youtube account recently, I love the concept and I think it really shows alot of time and patience and what is possible with the wonders of stop motion
