Don't wait...
...to celebrate!
A poem by Eric Hedman...
------------------------
Animation Day is on it's way,
So shout Hooray! It's Animation Day!
Tell your stories, come and play.
Celebrate Animation Day!
Drawing, Keying, sculpting too.
Making it live for me and you.
Effect some splash and crash and boom.
Draw or render bringin' cheer or doom.
Sculpt or paint or draw the scene.
Make a perfect Art Directors Dream.
Color, Light and Value reign.
Feel the feeling in your Heart and Brain.
Rig a puppet, draw a perfect inbetween.
Clean it up and finish the scene.
Make the sound better than real.
Song of love or Tire Squeel.
Code it, render it, chart it too.
Make the moves, run the studioo.
Write the words and tell the tales.
Make it count and do not fail.
Animation Day is on it's way,
So shout Hooray! It's Animation Day!
Tell your stories, come and play.
Celebrate Animation Day!
Tell your stories, come and play.
Cellllluuuuuuuhbrayyyyyyyte........
Animayyyyyyyshuuuuuuhhhhnnnn......
Dayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!

Carpe Diem
Over the next 50 weeks I'll be adding links of groups and individuals who are on board with Animation Day.
If you'd like a link to your site or blog, you're welcome to send it in to AnimationDay08.com. If you take advantage of the early timing, your link will appear high on the Animation Day list with a greater opportunity for exposure and additional traffic. A reciprocal link to the Animation Day blog would be nice, but it's not something that would be required to add your link here.
Help spread the word about the idea of April 1, 2008. Be a part of Animation Day by including a link to your own destination on the Web via the Animation Day blog.

More good news
I've received confirmation from another influential organization of their committment to being a part of Animation Day.The Animation Co-op has joined Animation Day and will be a part of this experience. With the Co-op and AWN, along with several individuals coming in to roost, there's a lot to crow about just days into this endeavor.
The Animation Co-op is a community in which a diversity of independent animation is supported and celebrated. The organization has chapters throughout the US. The Co-op was founded by Kevin Geiger of the Disney Studios. For more info on the Animation Co-op, click on the link to the right of the page or on the link below.

For the benefit of all
Hello and welcome to this very special blog.
Animation Day is a concept in progress. The purpose of which is to develop Tuesday, April 1, 2008 as a day in which animation professionals, students, fans, organizations and everyone involved in and in love with animation can celebrate the art together.
How this will turn out? Who knows, but we've got nearly a year to the day to have fun with building it out.
I've been hosting an established animation forum for several years and as such, ask the consideration of friends and visitors as I haven't opened the Animation Day blog to comments. One forum is enough and believe me folks, I do appreciate the break in maintaining a discussion situation. If you're interested in actively participating in community discussion concerning Animation Day, feel free to register with AnimationNation.com. Once you've gone through the registration process and have a cleared account, you'll be able to participate online with an incredible group of people.
You won't find any political issues or controversial topics here, industry related or otherwise. Just lots of happiness, goodwill and frequently posted updates as to where Animation Day is heading based upon the input of many talented and enthusiastic individuals and dedicated organizations and support groups.
I've added a link section to the right of the page entitled "Animation Day Includes..." and committed the first organization in support and sponsorship of Animation Day. That's my school, The Animation Academy in Burbank, California and all the great folks associated with it. So there's a start. I'll be posting links to many other sites as this rolls along.
Thank you for visiting. Please consider April 1, 2008 as Animation Day and let's see how far this idea can go.
Yours truly,
Charles Zembillas
