This next Snacky will probably be my last

[Jun]

So I am struggling to finish Snacky #4, and I will, but a lot of things have been happening to me ever since 2008 started. It's like the stars are aligning or something. The result is that: I got signed to direct an animated feature film.

What this means is, sadly, I won't have time for machinima any more. I will be so crazy busy. Besides, animation is my career, my first love, it's a world and a path that I knew inside and out from a very young age. I love every single aspect of directing animation, from arguing about story and characters, to laughing with voice actors, to imagining the look and the world with the art department, to spending long days in editorial making the storyboards sing, to seeing the animators create memorable characters out of dreams and pixels, to sit in a sound stage with an orchestra pumping all round you - and most of all, to work with some of the most creative and talented people on this planet. All I ever wanted to do from day one was be an animation director, and now I have another chance (and I will be working my ass off not to blow it, believe you me).

Machinima was a way to fill in a creative gap in my career after I was fired off of a movie 3 years ago. I love doing it, and I majorly appreciate all the fans who watched and enjoyed my films. I hope you will understand why there will be no more Snackys after 4. Instead, knock on wood, you'll be seeing my work in the theater. Thanks.
