Welcome to the Commercial Animation Program!

Hi everyone,
This blog is for you to be able to connect with the other students in your year.  You can post artwork, comments, invitations, etc throughout the year.  I'll make it private as well, so only the class can see what's here. Some of you know each other already, but you can get to know others before school begins.  I'll post information here too.  If anyone has comments or questions, you can email me directly.

Have a great year!
