___________________________
AND! To celebrate!
We have given the website
a face lift and all new content!
The new website navigation is cleaner
and it's "ohhh so much easier"
to find your favorite pages.
We also have brand new content...by popular demand!
There has been so much fan mail to Spicy Cricket
asking about the articles and tutorials that were
located on the Spicy website and are no longer...
we decided Thinking Animation should
house that content and even more
helpful learning tools have been
uploaded to the learning section!
the animation timeline from the book!
acting choices and performances in animation,
building walk cycles,
...and more!
Finally, Q and A 01, 02 and 03 transcripts
from interviews and chats
with Angie and Jamie are in this section.
classroom ancillaries to implement Thinking Animation
into your course curriculum are on their way!
Happy Birthday Thinking Animation!
We would like to thank everyone for
their support over the past year.
Here are some fun pictures to remember the journey!

Geez, isn't anyone going to answer the question and get a free book ? I've already got the book , so I don't want to answer and knock someone else out of the running , but I'm surprised by the lack of response ...
"Who animated the bulk of the
Capt. Hook in the Tiger Lilly
cave sequence of Peter Pan?"
Holy sheeze.
I'll make a wild, uneducated guess here and say it was Harvey Toombs.
I'm going to throw a guess out here....Wolfgang "Woolie" Reitherman under the direction of Frank Thomas?
WE have a winner! Shahbaaz send me your info - mailing addy - and I will forward you a book! YEAH!
SWEEET! WOW! I got actually got it! I guess doing my homework and a little research paid off! ;)Thank you guys so much for doing this! I can't wait to read through the book, I've heard so many great things about it! And thank you for posting all those resources for the public again. Spicy Cricket was a HUGE part of my learning of animation back in college. Its very admirable to share your knowledge for free! Thanks again, can't wait to read the book.
