ANIMATION WORLD MAGAZINE - ISSUE 5.12 - MARCH 2001

Colombia Is Animating
Thanks for Animation World Magazine. It is wonderful! In my country it is very difficult to learn about the animation world and you permit that. Thanks again and long may it continue (maybe in Spanish?).

More Kudos for the Web Guide
I just wanted to thank you for the kind words about my cartoon and let you know that it was an honor to have Bill and Ted #6 chosen as one of Rick's Picks. The first Rick's Pick of 2001! I check in on AWN's Web Animation Guide often and was pretty shocked and excited to see Bill and Ted up there. I'll probably "cross the line to crudity" again but I'm really glad you liked #6. I'll try to have more "moments of clarity!" Keep up the good work.

Anime?
If you had told me that I'd be renting and buying anime videos a few months ago, I would have thought you were crazy but thanks to Fred Patten's informative "New from Japan: Anime Film Reviews" (Patten, 5.11), I'm sold. Thanks for opening my eyes!

Sold!
I met Heather Kenyon on Saturday, February 17, 2001 at the Women In Animation annual meeting...she gave me some information about where to find cels and also told me about www.awn.com. Well, I just checked out the site and it is GREAT. What a resource! I'm so glad to know about it. Thanks for pointing me to it Heather. I wish I'd discovered it long ago.

Best regards,
