YOUR one true thing?
Truly amazing. EVERYONE, (as I have learned from Gary Barkalow) has been born with a gold in their veins – that ONE true thing which you were born to do…created to do. Watch this video and watch as one person discovers her “one true thing”.
What’s so amazing about this discovery is that I truly believe that she had no idea of just how magnificent she really was at this and it’s a perfect example of something which I think about often…
How many of us, if we actually dared to go and attempt our dream, that one thing that is deep down in our soul and perhaps even buried under years of forgetfulness…how many of us would discover how truly magnificent we are and would spend a lifetime of living out our glory as we live our calling out…if we would just try. This lady is 47 years old, and she’s finally attempted to go for it. And…she found it. Absolutely incredible! What’s YOUR dream? Pursue it. Don’t let anyone stop you!
Short film – Production Design
Over the coming weeks and months, I’ll be sharing some of the concept work I’m putting together for a 3D animated short film that I’m working on – something that I can work on for fun in my spare time! Actually, what’s spare time? This has been a fun little side project, and it’s shaping into quite a funny little story. Here’s a start to some of the set and background design from the early stages when I started blocking the idea out. Hopefully you will enjoy watching the progression of the film’s design and please feel free to share your feedback! At a later point, I’ll be revealing a little bit more about the story, and I plan on putting together a separate blog for the film as well, but for now…please enjoy the pre-production phase!
Here’s a rough sketch for the environment in which the film’s taking place…the swamps of the Louisiana Bayou!

I like to move it, move it…
Check out the latest work from Erwin Madrid on his website… www.erwinmadrid.com. Erwin just posted the concept paintings that he did for Madagascar 2. Erwin has also done work on the Shrek films, and the Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune game. He’s among one of my favorite concept artists and his work is absolutely amazing…check it out!
