The GLR blog

Welcome to the Blog for the graduats of the class of 2008 from the Grafisch Lyceum Rotterdam (GLR).

This blog is meant for us to keep contact with one another and to help eachother with critique and tips for both animations and concept drawing or whatever the future may bring towards you. This blog may also be a good opportunity to give eachother hints on job oppertunities. All in all, it might be interesting for us to see how everyone continues to grow and develop.

With all that being said lets get posting! :)

(Are you one of the graduates of GLR and want to post on here? let me know! I'll add you to the list of people that are allowed to post.)
