me and shel have been pretty touched by all the emails and notes dropped from all you guys about the DVD....and our blog.
we just wanted to say-
so.... Here I am in week 8 of trying my dangest to get the last fight sequence master in the CAN......and I am starting to FATIGUE.....ha!! I am really trying to not let it rub off on the animation quality but I am ready for a new shot 4 sure.
this is the longest shot I have ever animated in my career of stopmo.....A big part of it is that I am shooting alot of it on 1's......another part is that I'm trying not to do as many all nighters.....which means Im putting in 3 hours here....5 hours there. It just takes forever!! even when working 4 nights a week. 
its coming soon though guys....1 more week and its done....and you will see it here.
in other cool NEWS - we had visitors of Longtime Internet friends Sven and Gretchen from ScarletStarstudios. 
They came to california and got to visit almost all of the stop mo studios out here....as well as stay with us and hanging out a bit.
It was really cool to know that they were just as kind and cool as we hoped....they were so easy to hang with and that common thread of stopmo passion was almost all you need to be instant friends.
....Gathering around the kitchen table to do some artwork came as natural as breathing the air around us.....what a community!!
the last member of Scarlet star we got to meet was...TOBY -
He hung out with our monkeys and played on the set a bit....
we hope to see them all again in the future...and have friends in portland if we are ever there.
and Finally.... Tricks of the Week!!
