Wanna help say Happy 100th birthday the Sir David?

We've got less than two weeks.

And then Sir David Attenborough turns 100 years old. What can we do to say Happy 100th Birthday?

Make an animated Birthday Card.

HOW? Can you animate 9 drawings if I sent you an Animal image A and you morphed it into Animal image B? Could you send it back to me as a movie file before May 6th?

Here's am anijam I organised back in 2015 BC (Before Covid). Each change is 36 drawings or 3 seconds of screen time. The animation you will do will move a lot quicker.


I have no idea of where to send the fianl animation, but I think if we make it and everyone posts it to their social media, I'm hoping he might see it, And if not, other people might and wonder who is David Attenborough? 

If this is something you want to do, send me an email at animateducated@gmail.com

I just saw Ocean, a film of hope and probably the last film he will be in, but maybe not...

Jack Plotnick and Disney built a House of the Future

Jack Plotnick is an actor who began making short videos when he wasn't acting. During Covid, he began a long term project where he began playing the background parts in several Disney TV documentaries from the late1950s. "The Wonderful World of Color" was a series of television programs which appeared nationwide on TV sets all over America every Sunday night. Occasionally, Walt Disney would take you behind the scenes to show the making of his new amusement park, Disneyland!

Fast forward to the beginning of Covid, Jack Plotnick comforts himself in old Disney episodes until one day, using only i-Movie, a tripod and a green screen, he created a 45 minute video beginning with artist Mary Blair, who is tired of working on Disney artwork and soon discovers a sinister plot about the real creation DisneyWorld! 

Here is a recent interview about Jack's previous projects and how he combine his short Disney videos into "Disney made a House of the Future: The Movie"

Hey Everybody, It is a new year for animation. KPop Demon Hunters swept the Annie Awards and the Oscars are next. I have a few interview leads which I am work on for future interviews for you to enjoy and learn something from.

Here are some reason episodes you might have missed...



I have started a new series comparing the animatic storyboards to the final animation. Below is Tex Avery's final cartoon where I combine the storyboards frames with the final cartoon.
