V2 I love you

Our mentor Mike is ill, that's the first bad news.
AM site was down and that's another.

There was no sleeping for me this night cause I was waiting to see what will happen with our scheduled QnA with Michelle Meeker as a substitute mentor (great girl that gave us a couple of also great Makeup Q&As).

Becky (the school director) informed us about the new schedule and just some time ago she sent us a mail again and there were some good news that are: For our today's Q&A session, we are granted a sneak peak of - AnimationMentor site V2!!

....... Let me just say that I jumped off my chair when I opened the login screen. That thing is superAWESOME! I will not make spoilers but I'll just say that they listened to the voice of their students and as far as I can see they implemented those suggestions in the best manner! Just be patient and you'll see it for yourself very soon. Oh boy, I feel as a kid that has been granted a lolypop. :)

edit: My Internet connection suddenly abrupted just as the Q&A started. It was repaired ~10 minutes after the session has finished. Thank you, oh my beloved ISP. :/ Uh, my batteries lacks that weekly dose of Q&A energy.

Peg bar power

Today I got my first peg bar ever as a gift from one of our (Serbian) most famous animators Risto Topaloski. Hvala Risto!

It will help me spare my screen of arc tracking with dry erase markers. Now all I need is a couple of cells. I'm super happy cause of this absolutely lovely gift. BTW where did you saw an animator without peg bar, at least as a collectible? ;)
