Animator : Doug Wilson

Animator : Doug Wilson“There’s been rather a lot to take in over one (HoBB) Weekend and it’s all very useful stuff” (Douglas Wilson)

When animation enthusiasts get together their world is one of positive ‘possibles’ as the constraints of live action have no place in their thoughts. When Doug Wilson checked out what was happening over an animated HoBBian Weekend, he was subjected to a key overview of the animation industry which left him wanting to discover all the ‘inbetweenies’.

Creating a hunger to explore is far better than telling it how it ‘was’, as things move on in the animation industry so fast that experts rarely manage to keep tabs on all areas.

For Doug Wilson, one concentrated weekend of animation study and chat about everything from Bolex cameras and Macromedia to improvised ping pong ball suits for motion capture, crystallized his thoughts and illustrated where his potential in the animation industry might be best explored.

Doug’s University studies include practical work outs in the animation industry including BBC so contact  Doug when your Production Company needs one of the most enthusiastic up and coming stars of British Animation (Well that’s the publicist in me talking!)

Here’s some of Doug’s work:

If you are poised for a potential career decision, move, or are still at school – contact me – as I can give the benefit of a concentrated experience for you to help answer ‘would this suit me?’

Series of ten books continues the story of Elf

Elf’s first five books were written for everyone to enjoy, but especially for those who wanting to read from cover to cover, without help from a grown-up.

This was made possible by only using words from a restricted dictionary, i.e., those with the simplest and easiest to learn 22 phonemes in the English language.

If you liked the stories in the first Elf series you’ll love the adventures that Elf has in these next ten books which use words containing nearly all the 44 phonemes to be found in almost every adult book.
