Granted, the site (and the show reel) are in *dire* need of an update, so please bear that in mind as you look through it.

I did my university work at Virginia Commonwealth University and I actually ended up with two degrees: one in computer engineering and the other in 'kinetic imagery' (VCU's department for animation and video). I probably spent too much time in school, but I'm a nerd and a sucker for learning. :P As for how I got into animation, that's simple: flipbooks. I've drawn for as long as I could old a pencil, but I saw my drawings come to life and move in simple flipbooks, it kind of sealed the deal for me. Also, I watched a *lot* of cartoons growing up, so I guess it kind of became ingrained. Thanks for the questions and for reading! Also... @malefico: No, YOU'RE awesome! Heya Benjamin.

Thank you for your work, Jason! I am curious, though, where you studied? What is your degree? How did you get into animation? Excellent. Thank you for your work, Jason!

I'll get the 2.5 book, too. And I like the very recognizable Belfield in the title screen :) You rock, man, Blender needs more guys like you. Cool interview! I’ll get the 2.5 book, too.

Looking forward to this years 48 hour film project if you'll have me again. I was just thinking about a new 2.5 dummies book the other day. I just started playing around 2.5 alpha 1, and I got a bit worried when I first launched it, but after getting into it, it seems to make too much sense. I'm getting all the same "this is freakin cool" feelings I got way back(in tech time) when I started with 2.45. I can't wait for your 2.5 book as my current issue is wearing out. GIMP bible will be gracing my shelf as well. Keep up all the great work. You have been a great asset to me as well as the community at large. Great interview!
