Or what I did over the Christmas holidays 🙂 My husband got me a subscription to the Stan Winston School of Character Arts.

It’s very affordable – $29 dollars a month for 4 on-demand web courses. I’ve finished the first course – a very detailed start-to-finish 7 hour course on creating a puppet for stop-motion animation from the Chiodo brothers, who clearly love what they’re doing. I have pages of notes (although I’ll probably never build a puppet), and I’m starting my next course in the series on set design (which I’ll put to use immediately). I’ll let you know how that course goes once I’ve finished.
