Hand gestures

Hands are so versatile and can add so much to the characterization and richness of character animation. I saw this spoof advert following Dick Cheney's rather unfortunate accidental shooting of his hunting partner. A perfect example of how much hands impact on expression.

Theatre tour

I've been a naughty blogger. Doing a rural tour of FairLy Tales really was a lot of work! I had a wonderful time and this photo from a rehearsal at the Pateley Bridge Playhouse was my favorite night. It is a beautifully intimate theatre with a stage that jets out into the audience - almost theatre in the round.
