Animation Backgrounds Named BLOG OF NOTE!


ANIMATION BACKGROUNDS has received the honor of being named a "BLOG OF NOTE," today, December 18th, 2007.

I've gotta tell you, I am really knocked out!

Many thanks to the good folks at Blogspot and Google. Of the umpteen zillion blogs out there, it is amazing to have mine acknowledged this way.

My career is as a professional musician. But my passion for music is matched by my admiration of the animation art form. Since I can barely hold a pencil, animating is out of the question.

But I know how to manipulate images in Photoshop! Digitally re-creating classic backgrounds is my way of participating in the animation art form, and my way of paying tribute to the artists who created the cartoon landscape in which characters come to life.

Piecing these backgrounds together is incredibly rewarding. It is fascinating to see a background revealed, and to study the B/Gs as pieces of art in their own right.

I'm planning on a long run here. We'll continue the holiday and winter theme through New Year's Day. Then, we'll return to the usual potpourri of diverse artwork from various films.

Thanks again, Blogspot and Google.

And many thanks to my readers, and loyal animation fans worldwide!

Hey, my blog was once called blog of note, but no, it wasn't the one you are talking about here...

Congrats to you! I am a background painter and a big fan of those beautiful classic background painters and the artists who did them. I used to dream of a big fat coffee table book about BGs, but now with your blog it isn't necessary!

Hey..! congratulations.!
well you deserve the recognition and the blogs put up by you are worth the effort.
i really like your blogs, they are interesting + informative.
I, myself am into designing (just as a hobby) n stuff and love working on the photoshop. I have even tried my hands on flash and it too is amazing, a basic conceptual software towards animation - you must try that too. even if you cant sketch, you can create something on photoshop and animate it on flash. :)
