Maybe the asphalt’s too fresh here…

On another note, I’ve just seen a new animation blog: Anibation Fantasy. As described by Amid Amidi at Cartoon Brew, “The author of the blog has decided to remain anonymous, though he says he’s an Annie Award-winning artist who’s been in the industry for over twenty-five years. The writing on the blog certainly sounds like that of a grizzled industry veteran who’s seen it all. It’s hard to go wrong with a blog that has the tagline “I work in animation. I am in hell.” and offers post titles like “WHY THE ANIMATION INDUSTRY IS DOOMED,” “THE ANNIE AWARDS ARE A JOKE,” “HORRIBLE CARTOONS THAT EVERYBODY LOVES,” and “ANGRY WOMEN ARE RUINING ANIMATION.”” It’s an excellent, angry indictment of the lame, low-grade practices and products of the current animation industry.

EDIT: Hmm, the Anibation site has been taken down. I guess the simple truth hurt some resentful, thin-skinned folks in animation.
