whats coming up

k well i wrote a short story that is going to be developed in the APTI ( animation prodution training initiative ) programme run by anamazing south africa.
mine will be one of ten animated shorts developed for children between the ages of 6 and 9.

this is a very exciting and happy time for me. i have been wanting to move myself foward in my career toward writing and directing. as well as directing i will be the team lead so i have ALOT of control over this projects outcome. GREAT !

after directing my short for a 4 month production period, beginning 1 june, i will be team leading for another director on one of the other shorts for a continued 4 months.
during these eight months i aim to continue writing and get ready for my next project.
these shorts will be entered into as many festivals as i can get them into and hopefully win some recognition, helping the further growth and development of my career.

Hi Cousin Jono,

Great to hear about your new prospects. I do hope that you get to win some awards. Please don't make things to scary for 6-9 year olds. I hope it will be something fresh and orginal but with you I have not doubt. Really hope that it all goes well.

Pity about your bloody buddy not to mention the little innocent honey badgers !!!!

How's the painting going - when can I commission you?
