The "Digital Pack-Rat"

I've been doing a lot of harddrive re-organization lately and have come across many different things. Some files and unfinished projects have made me laugh, cringe, wonder what was wrong with me when I was younger, and some have re-inspired me. I was so into art and animation when I was in school and I've gotten off that path recently. Hopefully this little piece will get me back into it. While its not my best story ever, my partner and I met our deadline, did all the animation, modeled the props, created the environments, lit the scene and animated all the different cameras. We even came up with the "clever" solution a la Spielberg as to avoid showing the shark as little as possible so we wouldn't have to make one. Needless to say, I learned a lot from this project. And now I want to tackle a stop motion kind of thing. Good times ahead, all frame by frame.
