Handprint.com is a strangely organized site that has some really great information regarding watercolors, the tools associated with the paint and their usage . Click here for the site map!

VES Education/Technology Committee Presents:
This panel is designed to address the changes that advances in animation technologies are making to how animation is produced and what that means for animation artists. Performance capture techniques are here to stay, but it has also been repeatedly shown that more traditional means of bringing characters to life still have a major role to play in animation production.
What does all of this mean to the artists, performers, actors and technologists who must work together? How do studios/directors/producers/supervisors decide which techniques will bring their vision to the screen? It is our hope that this panel will creatively enlighten us with discussions of real solutions and guidelines for the individuals who do and love animation.

Frank Gladstone (Gladstone Film, Inc)

This is a pretty cool blog — they detail a little bit about a lot of ink pens of every sort (markers, fountain pens, etc)– it’s a good way to get exposed to some pens maybe you’ve never seen! You may just find something interesting to try out
