Oh Will. Up to your old shenannigans, aren't you?

Back on schedule. If you can't read Alan's lymeric, you aren't missing much. It's an old traditional verse I made up this morning in bed.

Hey everybody! Sorry about the long break. I have a bunch of really good excuses, but I won't bore you. Thanks for bearing with me.

Still alive...

I owe you guys a couple of Much pages. Sorry for the delay. Here's a couple new sketchbook pages...

No Much this week...

Sorry guys, I'm just too busy this week. On top of the board I have to hand in on Monday, I'm doing a storyboard test for a major feature animation studio! I'm really excited about it, and I've been busting my butt to get it finished. I posted an early version of it here: http://www.flightcomics.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11551
Feel free to check it out and tell me what you think.

Another late one... But I'm still doing it right? That must count for something?

This is important!

An alarming recent article in Animation World Magazine has been brought to my attention. It concerns the issue of Orphan Works, artwork for whom the copyright owner cannot be found.

As any artist posting on the internet is aware, copyright infringement is an ongoing risk. I have had my own artwork borrowed without my consent in the past, and normally it doesn't bother me. The problem is, under this legislation, someone else may be able to register my artwork in their own name so that I no longer have the rights to it. The same may be true of blog entries, journals and so on, unless every piece of creative work is registered correctly, and at cost, by it's owner.

The actual proposal before Congress is transcribed here: http://www.copyright.gov/docs/regstat031308.html We can't afford to be caught lying down on this one.
