Hi folks, thought it might be interesting to hidden-techers to know about this: I'm working on a short animated movie, but not on the studio model. Instead, the team is all distributed among studios, students and freelancers over the 'net, and we use various communication channels to run the production. We've got a production blog just started at http://tube.freefac.org , you are cordially invited to come along and enjoy the ride (which is liable to be bumpy) cheers Bassam Kurdali (director, and local Northampton freelancer)
