Then I met hime again with 2 friends 3 years ago in L.A. and again, welcome me in his office, he was working on the development of Rapunzel at the time, took us through the storyboard, his beautiful drawings, we spent an afternoon with him. I was working with his daughter too in Paris, such a nice person too.<BR/>It's with this kind of Artist that you learn, they just want to share they're knowledge without beeing pretentious or arrogant, top guy!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07669033588375514947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19218379.post-1144301500194238012006-04-05T22:31:00.000-07:002006-04-05T22:31:00.000-07:00I met Mr. Keane at the Annie Awards years ago.

(Gene Hackman comes to mind).<BR/><BR/>Very nice man. <BR/><BR/>I haven't done anything with iMovie lately. I'm lame. <BR/><BR/>I hope all is well. It's a toss up for me to set my homepage to... Blackwing? Or Pidgeon? Blackwing? Or Pidgeon? I check both your blogs regularly.<BR/><BR/>B.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19218379.post-1144293251437707522006-04-05T20:14:00.000-07:002006-04-05T20:14:00.000-07:00No problem, Jenny!

And what have <I>you</I> been up to with iMovie lately? ; ) Wanna see!<BR/><BR/>-Hey Ward--I owe you a chat! Sorry--we've been busy[bees]to the extent that I havent been in the office at all(then I was out Monday). Anyway, yep, that was a cool thing, to be able to give Glen the tiniest of thanks(although for a second I probably scared the poor man to death! Geek alert!! LOL). He's a very gracious and generous artist. A few things he said in his CalArts lectures have sustained me artistically in some rough times...one day I may thank him for that, too. He certainly raises the bar for all of us.Jenny Lerewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06668171465801333811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19218379.post-1144254789080645412006-04-05T09:33:00.000-07:002006-04-05T09:33:00.000-07:00Thanks for the tip, Jenny!Huge Glen Keane fan.B.Thanks for the tip, Jenny!<BR/><BR/>Huge Glen Keane fan.<BR/><BR/>B.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19218379.post-1144206596956825872006-04-04T20:09:00.000-07:002006-04-04T20:09:00.000-07:00That's a great story, Jenny.

I love that you were able to thank him for his animation without going into too much detail about who you were, etc. Very cool.<BR/><BR/>The podcast was great, just like I figured. It's funny, though -- I get a bit flustered whenever all the podcasts end because they end right when they are getting to a good juicy part. D'oh! But it's great that Clay is doing this.
