stuff and things I see and do
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/8340141.stm Nice article on BBC about the decision to not air Sesame Street on the BBC. The show crossed the Atlantic 18 months after its US launch, but the BBC rejected it because of its “authoritarian aims” in trying to change children’s behaviour. Lucky I had Channel 4 then eh! the buggers!
http://www.immersive-garden.com/ This site has some lovely sequences of flash and After Effects animation. The Skills page is especially explosive.. ink clouds and crows. Really nice use of textures and assets. Found on theFWA.com website http://thefwa.com/site/immersive-garden/c=2816 .
