Tibbidy
I did some work last year for a new Australian children's magazine called Tibbidy. I illustrated a sweet little story about a brother and sister called Leo and Millie spending the day at the beach. One of my illustrations was also used for the cover, so that was exciting to see. It is a really lovely magazine, beautifully printed and full of lovely stories and illustrations.
Here is a little peek at the inside:
And here is the cover:
It has been a strange couple of weeks filled with family colds, leaking pipes (luckily not too much damage, just a giant hole in our dining room wall!), and to finish off this week, I broke a tooth on a stone that was in my falafel. Throughout all these distractions, I have been trying to stay focussed on an upcoming deadline. I feel like saying I need a holiday but that wouldn't be fair as we just got back from Scotland, but I could do with a wee break from things going wrong. Maybe next week will be a good one.
Have a great Burns night for those that are celebrating. I only eat vegetarian haggis but I do love the tatties and neeps, great on a cold, winter's night. Vegetarian haggis is a bit hard to find here in Montreal, so I think we will be having some very un-Scottish Pesto instead! We do have nice single malts in the house though, so perhaps we will have to have a little for the occasion ;)
Here's a picture of my son giving it some Scottish style to get you in the mood.
I did order this: Madame Tutli-Putli so the weekend is starting to look brighter already. It has just received an Academy award nomination for best animated short film!
ohhh, thanks for this.
Gosh I didn't know anything about Jason.
The things I read and listening to the interview...sounded like it was ALL just the TWO of them...
Well ! I will certainly go see JASON and I owe him an apology ! wow....
I am so excited about this 'little' film. Living in Los Angeles, and working for an animation company, and having several friends who produce animation.... well... nothing I've ever seen before compares to this masterpiece! And I have only seen a few seconds of it. I apsolutely cannot wait to see it in its entirety. Hat's off to the amazing creators and thanks so much for sharing.
amazing and wonderful! These guys have amazing dedication and passion and it's so great to see!
amazing, everything about it, the detail, the camera angles, they way her eyes flutter watching the moth. thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the head's up, Sweet Pea. :) I've seen this featured on Drawn! and Cartoon Brew as well. It's just beautiful. I want to see it so much.
Okay, now I have something for you. I got tagged, I did the assignment, and now I'm tagging YOU. Sorry. I guess this is going all over IF. I'm not sure if the rules changed as the "tag" was passed around but the rules I got are you need to post 7 things (presumably about yourself) and then tag 7 other people. Sorry. Good luck. Sorry.
Along with Jason, there was another person as well who is rarely mentioned but should be considered one of the four core members of the film, and not just for the obvious reason: the actor behind Madame Tutli Putli's eyes.
Amazing!
U-A-U!!!
It's only i can say abut this animation...
And I Have only seen a few seconds too...
Hey there, guess what?! This film just won two awards at Cannes! It won the Canal + Award for Best Short Film and Petit Rail D'Or for Best Short Film. Cool huh?!
