Fishwick Papers: The "All the Opportunities" Edition

Hullo there! I'll be quick because I'm writing this in between sessions at a conference about CGI. I'm here to meet cool 3D artists and learn about their careers and work for ACMI. I also had the amazing opportunity to visit the Australian Children's Television Foundation this week, which as a fan of Round the Twist, Li'l Elvis, and Genie from Down Under was so. cool. There are lots of great links this week, I'm excited for you to see them!
