The Home Stretch!

Four days - more layering, more filters, more sound experiments ... oh the pure joy of it all!

Three to go - remembering Wm Buckingham of FSC who trusted us with his car for this one

Two to go - this pulled from a 2018 ASIFA Central Anijam

One day left - and then from a job to one's work...

And out the door with a bit of recycled guidance...

And down from Day #9

#9 - some sketching, multiple filters, and a sincere thanks to Georges Melies

8 days to go - multiple layers again, discovering some new built-in functions, and finally have the digital tablet working well...

7 days to go - adapting a ca 2005 Flash tutorial demo into the countdown.  Note to self: watch the reconstructed "Metropolis" again!!

6 days to go - a visit to where it all began, nearly 50 years ago...

6 days still, but with better contrast...oh those learning curves!

And a reference to day #25 for day #5, to show what a browbeaten experience the ensuing 20 days has been...

Another Countdown Begins at 27 days....

27 days - Eleanor Powell Rotoscope from "Honolulu" (1939)

26 days - Images from a missed ASIFA Central retreat in St. Louis this August

25 days - Life's a gamble after all, isn't it?

24 days - Making use of a previous clip with frames re-inserted

23 days - The storm was over, so I went out to feed the mosquitoes.
Thanks and apologies to Winsor McCay and "How a Mosquito Operates" (1912)

(We'll see how long I can keep this going....)

22 days - rotoscoped a rotoscope ... oh these exercises!

21 days - head dive into the 80's archives...

20 days - at least the source material is from this century!
