Animex 2010

Here is another key reason to begin this blog, to note down the incredible amount of information I took from the talks and workshops held at Animex 2010.  It's probably best to spread these notes over a few days in separate posts for some kind of order.  Both Games Industry and Film professionals attended so there's quite a lot of diverse Information.

I happen to have my mugshot on the Animex website after a photographer dropped by the Stuart Sumida Workshop. I had no idea but quite fun.
