ASIFA and Cartoon Brew bits
First, I would like to congradulate Bill Plympton, Chris Conforti, Fran Krause, Jeff Medinkow, Nina Paley, Patrick Smith, PES, Signe Baumane, Tom Warburton, and those who’s names I don’t know, for winning in The 2005 ASIFA East Festival.
And a special hug for John Dilworth who won “best in show” this year. Here is a photo of him looking at the DVD of “Piper the Goat” that I gave him.
Also, here is a quote of Amidi’s from cartoonbrew.com in response to the Bobblehead caricature I drew of him:
The surest way to get a link on Cartoon Brew? Create a post on your blog titled “All Hail Amid Amidi” and draw a caricature of me surrounded by beaver clouds and other monstrous creations.
The surest way to scare the hell out of me? Create a post on your blog titled “All Hail Amid Amidi” and draw a caricature of me surrounded by beaver clouds and other monstrous creations.
So, guess what Lev Polyakov (a talented and quite young animator out of NY) did?
Thanks Amid, and I hope you have sweet dreams of sweet Beaverclouds in your sleep. See ya in Ottawa (or Annecy)
