JIN KIM HAS A BLOG

The world is that much of a better place, today.

He's one of my favourite artists at Disney, possibly my very favourite, but I haven't been able to find any of his artwork in an art book or anything so I can't show anyone why. Until now! Enjoy! With any luck he'll have a load of stuff in the Rapunzel art book, but that's a long way off yet ...

I've just amended the book list on my How-To-Draw page to reflect some of the more recent publications which I, in my lofty position and incalculable wisdom (ha ha ha) deem useful. If anyone knows of any other good online drawing tutorials that I could link to, would you be so kind as to notify me? (What happened to yours, Syd?) Mine is pathetically cursory and I don't see any point at which I'll be able to flesh it out.

My good friend [livejournal.com profile] tony_cliff has written an excellent entry calling out 'fine art.' Preach it, Tony!

Then, just when I thought I had settled in, I read a surprisingly insightful article on rednecks and was reminded that this is a completely foreign country.

SWEET.

Sigh, you Brits get the BBC AND THIS??

First publicly released image from the New and Improved Rapunzel:


CLICK FOR TO MAKE BIGGAR!


This is a piece of concept art by Andy Harkness, not a final still from the movie, though of course they're going to try to make it look like that. There seems to be some confusion: Rapunzel is not going to be 2D. It is a 3D film. A very nice 3D film, but it is 3D, not 2D. No matter how much some people may plead and moan, the directors want it 3D and they're the ones in charge.

Many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] floramir for pointing this out, and to [livejournal.com profile] aspectabund for posting the BIG one (and some little ones wot you can see in the comments)! Also to Yahoo Movies and the AP for distributing it. Booo to Aint-it-Cool for being slooooow. :P

I LOVE THIS MOVIE. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT. AAAAAAAAAAAH.

Impending Legislation Threatens to Revoke Artists' Right of Copyright

This page has running, up-to date information on the situation. Apparently it hasn't been introduced as a bill yet but They want it passed before the summer recess.

A moderating voice of reason - it's all conjecture anyway until a bill is officially drafted and brought before Congress.

Please read the above and make the appropriate ruckus when the time comes. If it passes I will not post any artwork online again ever. Or else move back to Canada* where I will be condemned to putter away doing rotations for crap TV shows for the rest of my life**, and post horrible emo blog entries with no art until I die of consumption and bad poetry.


*Provided US companies don't act as if this bit of US LEGISLATION is international law, which would be drastically out of character.
**I will have access to better food and less aggrevating media, but I like working at Disney. There are fantastically talented people here for me to idolize learn from. Unless I could convince them to up stakes and move there ... which would, really, be better for everyone ...
