Sadly, I've never been able to work on films with a Hollywood-level of staffing, schedule or budget... outside of advertising that is. I tried of course but in my experience 'artistic originality' and 'creative independence' do not go hand-in-hand with mainstream funding. Consequently, every film I've produced has been short and infused with a 'stone soup' philosophy... i.e. working from home, often entirely alone, with no time or money to play with. Partners, friends and students have been so supportive when help has been most needed. But essentially, everything you'll see here has been achieved through a great deal of personal self-sacrifice, passion and even stubbornness... in addition to an intense love of the traditionally animated artform! I therefore hope you'll enjoy what you see here and will appreciate the work that went into it all.

All the classic Disney films that were made when Walt was alive (and making films the way they should be made)... especially PINOCCHIO, BAMBI and FANTASIA!

Many independent films outside of the Hollywood mainstream 'straight jacket', such as Chris Landreth's RYAN... but really too many to mention here!

Read? Who has time to read? There's just too much drawing to be done! Seriously though, I do believe that Richard Williams' The Animator's Survival Kit is the 'bible' for all animators though! :^{)}=-

The first and last time I met Tony White was at the Edmonds Arts Festival, I think, and he wanted to take up printmaking. I am wondering if he would like to talk about fathering a community project for printmaking, built around a mini "laptop" etching press.

Besides a degree in animation, I learned the principles of animation from THE ANIMATOR'S WORKBOOK, I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn all the principles of classical animation. I used to make my first film, on an old Bolex.
