as many of you know, i'm a recent film school graduate (well, not THAT recent... '03). i studied animation and while i mainly do 3D stuff, i do some title animation stuff as well.
a couple years ago, one of my former professors hired me to do some animation scene scanning and timing, as well as some title animation for a project he was working on.
a few months later it was completed, and i went to new york for a private screening. the film was to be broadcast on bravo or cinemax or hbo, at some point in 2006.
last night i was watching the oscars with my girlfriend. they started announcing the best animated short nominees. i nearly fainted when i saw the film i worked on was nominated. i nearly crapped myself when i saw that it won. my girlfriend and i were shocked and just didn't know what the heck happened. it was surreal. still is. on the one hand, i played a relatively small part in a film that required many many talented people to get it done. on the other hand, i actually have a credit on an oscar winning film!
needless to say, my former professor is john canemaker, creator, director and producer of "the moon and the son: an imagined conversation"
i'm still a little in shock.
anyways, time to update the resume... hah
