A couple of exciting feature articles are right around the corner. This week, our conversation with illustrator and animator Pascal Campion is scheduled to go live, and in two weeks, a nice interview with illustrator and animator Michel Gagne. But until then, why don’t you have a look at our current feature article on Kent Hugo and his futuristic film L’Or Rouge.

Extra, extra…

Yeah, I know. Yet another animation blog. How is this one different? Glad you asked.

This blog comes to you direct from AnimWatch.com. We profile the student, slogging away on his thesis film. We profile the talented amateur, knocking away on his film til the wee hours. We profile the bleary-eyed industry professional creating a personal film in his spare time just for the love of it. We profile the indie artist with limited funds but a lot to say. And we profile the occasional major studio film that breaks the mold.

In short, we profile excellence of one form or another. And you’ll not only hear about the films and the people who make them. You’ll even hear from the people themselves. Think of AnimWatch as one big DVD Extra without the DVD, one big happy, ever-growing Special Feature… a weekly dose of behind-the-scenes goodness.

And the blog? Think of this blog as an added Special Feature for AnimWatch. You’ll get news of updates, upcoming interviews, What’s Hot at the AnimWatch Forum, and occasional musings on the state of the Art and Industry from yours truly (that’s Steve Ogden, for those of you who don’t know).

Until next time, see you at

AnimWatch!
