Seattle Animation Mentor Gathering

A bunch of Animation Mentor ninjas in the Seattle area got together tonight to enjoy a few liters at Feierabend. We had a few folks starting next quarter, a graduate from the first ever AM class, and everything in between. Thanks to Faisal (Fes) Navqi for setting it up!

Graduated!

So as of yesterday, I have officially completed the "advanced studies in character animation" program at animationmentor.com. It was an awesome experience all around, and I would recommend the program in a heartbeat to anyone with a passion for learning animation. One of the best parts of the school is the great community of friends and contacts that you build, and I really hope I can stay in touch with all the fun, talented people I've met. Blog-wise, hopefully I'll get around to posting all of the leftover stuff that I neglected to post while the program was going. What can I say? Too busy doing homework : )
