Get the Monkey Off Your Back!!!


The Lozt Boyz have started a new tradition at BSS, known as THE GIANT MONKEY ON YOUR BACK.  

The monkey is a physical reminder of all the pressures that come with animating an amazingly long and important shot.   Its sort of a gift as well as a curse. 

Our first recipient was Joe Antonuccio.  And as of today, we are proud to announce that the Monkey is officially off his back.  He finaled his 5,000 frame shot of 4 characters.  Yay!!!


Perhaps the best part of getting the monkey off your back, is putting it on someone elses. 


 Ahh yes...The office appropriate handoff to Garrett Shikuma.   :/


Sorry Garrett.  But your shot is going to be awesome!
