    Mike, thanks for keeping this alive! Between work and other conflicts it's been awhile since I made one, looking forward to this!

    •  Really great panel of artists (new and old), very informative, with lots of interesting things to say! Happy to make the trip, it's good to get out of the city sometimes, especially for something you love!

       This was a very enjoyable animation lineup, with a somewhat mixed bag of animated shorts ranging from okay to really terrific. For me, highlights were a Bill Plympton short called "Guard Dog" and a music video by moderator George Griffin for a song called "You're Outta Here!" Both the song and the animation were snappy, fast paced and funny. It was followed by a panel discussion with Griffin, R.O. Blechman, Emily Hubley, Jeff Scher and Michael Sporn. Lively and a very knowledgeable audience. Too bad more NYNJA's didn't show. As far as I know it was me and Jesse Pindus, but only because I knew him from past meetups. If there were others, sorry we didn't hook up but there was no way to recognize you! All in all a very enjoyable evening.
