Brussels

Here in rainly Brussels, just getting the guys from the Walking the Dog compositing team ,
Gilles and Michael up to speed on what we need.
What I have seen so far looks good, but lots left to do in a shorter and shorter time frame.
We will endeavour to keep the quality up however. Frits is looking after the compositing here and he and Gilles will come down to Angouleme with me on Wednesday to meet the guys down there.
The biggest challenge of course with teh work split all over is having everyone on the same page and seeing what the others are doing, how they are doing it and why.
Internet is great and all but its not really a subsititute for face to face so I hope the meeting between the Belgian and French teams will help bioth parties in this last run of production.

Ill be back in France on Tuesday to work on the editing of Reel 2 some more with Febienne and to discuss some publishing tie in ideas that I am really excited about.

Tommorow after noon its Liege to see about the remaining EFx and be sure the Ink and Paint is on track to finish up asap.

Liselott came over to visit this weekend which was nice.

Good veggy food found in Soul restaurant - veggies check it out if you are in Belgium

We met Marie Laure last night for drinks after a day browsing the endless Bd shops here.
Man , Chocolate, Beer and Bds the Belgians have their priorities straight.

life is short and animation takes soo long.. these weekend pitstops are really a neccesaity to keep the energy up
