Awright, my turn...

James, I've seen most every one of the samples of your animation work mentioned here and they all are nothing short of astounding, man everything is in such a perfect balance... anyways, this comes from a frustrated aspiring character animator who never had money to pay expensive college (classical animation) tuitions and ended up doing corporate "interactive" crap on the web instead (I earned a BFA degree though). I still keep the desire to be able to produce animated Flash shorts someday, but when faced with the time constraints imposed by "serious" corporarte work, suddenly doing a 10-week nonstop marathon to produce a cartoon short is something way beyond you can afford in terms of time, yet I know that's the way it is buddy.

No need to enter into details, but did you receive some sort of funding or sponsorship to create Preschool Protocops, or to get Timehead up and producing all this great stuff without financial worries? (You know what I mean here) because well, if I could get someone to pay me to produce Flash cartoon shorts, dammit I'd quit my present job in a New York minute! Or, what advice would you give to aspiring Flash animators to have both fun and a profit with their work?

Is Timehead expanding on search of new talent? *grin*

thanks in advance!
