Some Major Changes Lately
I don’t get to update this site much due to how busy I am. But for those of you who check, YOU ROCK!!! I hope to get some new work up as soon as I get approval. I have a little funny troll animation I'll be posting soon.

So I’m finally at the end of the project over here at Microsoft (Fasa Studios). I had a full day interview over at Bungie Studios recently(Creators of Halo). I had the chance to meet all the Animators working on Halo 3, had lunch with them and a few drinks at a bar close by. They have a great group of guys over there and very talented. It was a long day but everyone made the day go by quickly. The layout of their studio is very open and huge, try and picture a giant warehouse with tables and no dividers. Definitely a different kind of environment that is more geared to communication. I can see how they would be very productive in that kind of environment. I was pretty honored to actually hang out with them for the day.

I just took a full time job offer at Sony as a SR character animator. They are working on some truly amazing stuff for the PS3. There is no way I could pass it up and the pay raise is definitely a major plus. I’m going to try and push my Animation to a new level of quality while I’m at sony, should be challenging experience. I will however miss the great friends I’ve made here at Microsoft. I love all you guys and will miss our 5:00 hackey sessions.

I’ve also been taking some major Anatomy courses in sculpting for the past couple months in Seattle . I didn’t know how much those courses can improve so many things in the way I work. I think I found my new love or hobby for the next few years. Check out my instructors Web Site…. She is a truly amazing gifted woman. http://www.kimgrahamstudios.com/
