Our August issue, Internet And Computer Animation, features a number
of special articles. In the Internet animation section we are
featuring a theoretical look at what might have happened if animation
legends such as Tex Avery had the freedom of the Internet at their
disposal. Martin "Dr. Toon" Goodman tells us the tale. Plus, leading
content producers reveal what tools they are using, and two of
AtomFilm Studios' best give advice on setting up your own home studio
and producing great work. Wildbrain's Chris Lanier also discusses the
aesthetics of Web animation and decides that like comic books, the
tools don't provide limitations but rather creative freedoms. In
addition, Jacquie Kubin profiles the limitless world of Internet
gaming for us.
In the computer animation portion we have a special profile of
Mainframe Entertainment in Vancouver, Canada. We, of course, also
feature news and views straight from SIGGRAPH 2000. In other coverage
we get an update on the much talked about Canadian animation market
from Chris Robinson and Andrew Osmond takes us on a tour of Britain's
summer animation festivals. Just what is coming up to fill Cardiff's
gap? Andrew tells us about a lot of exciting events. Glenn Vilppu is
back with his second installment from his new book about sketching on
location, as well as Maureen Furniss and Lee Dannacher with "Fresh
from the Festivals" and a profile of Stan Lee Media respectively.
Plus, there's much, much more...even if we say so ourselves it is a
great issue!
