hi im Sinéad and I'm a freelance animator. I Love all things quirky and insane such examples are - Director Tim Burton, animators 'Brothers Quay, Robert Morgan and DC Comics. I also LOVE BBC's Doctor Who and Sherlock and Merlin. Whenever i'm free - which for an animatior feels like never - i like to create and design my own jewellery. I reblog a lot of stuff that brightens up my day or that i just really like. If you're ever interested in looking at my work see my website: www.sinead-animation.com or to view my jewellery visit my etsy store: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Quinnys

Last week I completed my Future Learn course of Physical Theatre: The Slap online Open University course. Well I decided that it should animate it on my next free ‘freelance Thursday’ This is the result. It’s not wonderful but I had fun working on something different in the studio, and I got to use my newest puppet which I made in Jennifer Kidds’ Advanced Model Making course last April.
On this online Course on Future Learn we've discussed how Meyerhold documented his recordings of the études, through written notes, photographs and the odd film, these three techniques of documentation where used in the 1920s and 1930s to record Biomechanics through time. I have decided to take the key poses as photographs and also a video of myself so that I know what to animate next week.
I smile cause I'm a ludicrous pink colour, I can't help it! I laugh and it makes me look a bit less pasty, It's just so Fucking Pink! So if dying my hair bizarre and rainbow colours is one step to my recovery then great. A rainbow I shall be:

Cold levels in the studio hit a new low and I’m currently animating with the added extras of a fluffy onesie, fingerless gloves, animation slippers, boot socks and a stitch hot water bottle (but the HWB comes off when Animating of course!) #toocold #animation #keepingwarminthestudio #studiotime #stopmotion #onesie #slippers #stitch #freelance #animator #animationgraduate #greenscreen #keepwarm #backtowork #firstanimationdayof2018
Found out how to do best 9 of 2017 properly! Turns out a few of mine have changed now since last month when I posted. This was a lot easier by clicking a button than going through my posts individually 😅 most have stayed the same though. Thanks for following I hope to post more exciting animation related things this year! #best9of2017 #animator #animation #quinnysemporium #stopmotion #animationgraduate #freelancer #graduation #puppets #blood #lasercutting #awards #filmfestivals #onetoomany #munchies #tonedeath #UCA #UCACanterbury #UCAFarnham

It’s been 6 months since I broke my hand in two places. From never before broken a bone I suddenly had my arm in a cast and endured 11 stitches: 9 on my left hand (inside and out) and 2 on my right arm.
The photo on the left is the first photo I took of my hand since the cast came off 1 month after the incident. I didn’t take a photo whilst at A&E, it certainly wasn't priority. The photo on the right is my hand today.
I struggle to accept these scars, especially the large one that runs across the bottom. But today I looked back at that first photo I took and the difference is huge, although mentally for me there has been only a minor change. This is why I think it is good to take photos as milestones to remind oneself that change does happen it just takes time.

Curtains are up! Considering this space is normally a light room that doesn't really require turning the light on I was surprised to see it so dark! Now it feels like a studio is underway. https://sflstoddartanimationtonedeath.wordpress.com/2017/08/06/curtain-setup/ #animationgraduate #animation #studio #studiospace #blackoutcurtains #stopmotion #freelance #doityourself #bargain
