Old school animators often had to wait days to get their work shot to see how it worked in motion, so they learned how to predict how it would look

In some ways gameplay animation is an evolution of this: we often create animation out of context and are thinking ahead about how it will work in game

Sunday night was scary--it got higher than these pics and was lapping at the top of our retaining wall 😬

Today is a big day of firsts in our family!

- My youngest is starting prep (the first year of school in Australia)
- My eldest is starting high school (!)
- My wife is starting her first year as a full-time classroom teacher

Lots of big feelings at drop-offs today 😭
