And my Mentor is Matthew Russel
Finally this afternoon I received the email I have been waiting all week to get. The one that lets me know who my first mentor is and when we will be having our first live Q&A!!
So for my first 12 weeks my mentor is Matthew Russel. I'm not going to pretend I know who he is cause I had no idea when I saw his name and honestly didn't expect to because I don't really know more than a couple of animators. Still I was excited to go find out cause if he works at AM he must be a kick arse animator!! Unfortunately they weren’t giving me any hints on the mentor page instead of his bio I got "coming soon" but with a little help from google and thumper we quickly tracked down some info. So what I did find out is that he works at DNA and was a lead animator on the Jimmy Neutron movie. He also worked on the Jimmy Neutron series and by the looks of it is currently working on DNS's next feature "Bully Ant" which is due to be released next year.
Roll on Monday!! :D

Bully Ant sounds cool (well the name anyway, I have no idea what the movie is about!)
