Links for Articles Due 3/2/14
http://blog.animationmentor.com/11-lighting-tips-from-the-lego-movie/ (Yes, another Lego post. Deal.)

Extra Credit:
+10 for your thoughts on this new character generator from Autodesk (creator of Maya). Is it useful for beginning animators? Is it cheating?
http://www.awn.com/news/autodesk-rolls-out-cloud-based-3d-character-generator
From now on, you may choose to do a video response for ONE of the two articles each week, if desired. You should post it on your blog, and you must still follow the usual specs for blog responses. The other article and your weekly comments must continue to be typed. This is not required, so if you would rather do the blogs as usual, carry on.
