Last week was a whirl wind of openings and screenings. If I see any more pita bread and hummus I’m going to be sick! Here’s a photo of the trailer on screen from the Boston LGBT Film Festival.

Meanwhile, I’ve been working on some interesting animation experiments and plowing away on small Mechanical Confections. Here’s one from the workbench last week.

Take a look at the video below and note some of the changes. Yesterday I ended up cracking the wood handle, replaced it and then decided on a new base. The old one ( made from an alarm clock ) was pretty neat but a bit wobbly. In the end I decided on something more solid. I’m happy with the result, it’s more substantial and should hold up to years of enjoyment.

BTW, Frida, my canine companion is under the workbench.
