My quest for a good blog site lead me to the discovery of Kyle Kenworthys Animation blog(Link at bottom). I wandered around his blog for awhile and I liked most everyhting I saw with a few exceptions.

I found the layout of the site very organized and easy to navigate with clear titles for what the viewer might be looking for. There are helpful videos and comments to anwser any questions you may have and his email is provided to contact him directly. To the right of the site there are labels with tutorials and helpful hints for viewers to explore. I personally like his animation posts, as it inspires me to get out there and learn to create my own animation.

I wasn’t sure how to feel about his offering of classes on the blog instead of giving out the information for those to use as they please, but I also understand that people need to make a living. His blog has an overview on the different classes offered, prices, what is taught in the class and the class outline, which looks very thourough. I disliked that some of the text color on his blog was harder to read such as blue text on a black background or text being to small. He also only updates once or twice a month which is understandable if he’s creating his own animation but I feel that updating with tips or links to other tools would be helpful and might attract more people to his blog.

All in all I think this is a solid blog and would recommend it to anyone curious about animation.
