RIP Tony Hart

We were both saddened to hear of Tony Hart's passing, especially since we were only just talking about our childhood memories of Hartbeat and viewing clips on YouTube. I used to tune into his show back in the 80s to see Tony work his magic, catch up with Morph then chill out to the gallery music :) He will be missed by all of us here and no doubt by his many many fans out there.

Stop, Look and Listen

Stop-Motion Animation is a very time-consuming, patience straining art-form, but it's also a very rewarding practice that gives you a much greater understanding of timing, movement and pace. Here's a stop-motion film by an artist called PES, which I 'Stumbled' over today and it got me thinking about the work I did at Art college years ago and my first year studying Multimedia Technology. Take a look and be inspired!
