well, that was something of a lean year and hopefully this new year will be stuffed full of goodies for us all, but at the moment it’s a terrifyingly blank page.
Financially, last year hardly existed and I certainly contributed nothing towards making any new animation, even though there was some animation on my doorstep almost. However I did do a lot of talking about animation in the past tense. I went to festivals in Barcelona, Prague/Brno, and Messina, as well as social trips to Ireland, and Nice. College trips were definitely thin on the ground. I think I have a film or tow still in me, but where does even begin to go these days. Oh to have the chance to do another film on the scale of Rigoletto which seems to have had a bit of late, very late, flowering. I certainly have the ideas.
At the garrick I did a rather heart warming studion production of A Man of No Importance, and a main stage production of It’s a Wonderful life. Not sure what next there. Not sure what next at all. The radio show will keep going but I definitely need a new project.
