Hi Animators!

Just a quick note to remind people about our social tonight.

Animator's Socializer!

Thursday, March 18 7-10 PM

Join us for an animation socializer on March 18th, 7-10pm. Anyone is welcome to attend this free event. Network with other animators and animation lovers. If you've got projects you'd like to show, bring them to share. We'll be screening the animation reel sent to us by ASIFA San Francisco and other short films as time permits.

Jason is our generous host. This event will be held in the common room of his apartment building located near south Lake Union

Tony White

Finding Your Inner Walt

Seattle Flash Users Group
Tuesday March 23, 7:00 PM
Adobe Conference Center
701 N. 34th Street
Seattle 98103

Tony White's personal quest started with a deep dislike of Disney animation; it then meandered to a place where he could begin to admire Walt, his approach and his vision; and then arrived at the ultimate 'Holy Grail', a perfect production-process and state of 'inner Walt'!

As well as screening a number of old animated favorites, Tony's journey will also include new animation pieces by himself, his contemporaries and his students. There will additionally be an explanation of the ultimate dream - the 'Atelier Academy Studio' - where master animators and their students can seek re-establish their 'inner Walt' also!
