Seth Welton

Seth Welton is a 25 year old from michigan, who does animation... obviously. His animations have won awards and have been screened at the SXSW (south by south west) Film Festival and the Ann Arbor Film Festival. I found out about Seth through deviant-art and from seeing this i looked into him a bit more and went on his website, he has done a lot of animation and has won the awards deservedly. This video your definitely about to see, right now, is a trailer for 'the playground' which is going to be an animated series based on a group of youth who run a gang or crime syndicate. Here is the link to the playground website http://playgroundmafia.synthasite.com, it isn't a full series yet but it looks like it should be exciting.



Apart from 'the playground' he has done a lot of other animations as mentioned, and by seeing a lot of his work you can see the style he works by, the cut out characters with the toy objects, it gives a distinctive style to Seth, and even without being told this next video was his, i knew it was just because of the way it has been animated and created, and i really like Seth's style, definitely an approach to animation i wouldn't mind following.

I have to say, this next video is 26 minutes long, so you dont have to watch it, unless you have a lot of time on your hands, or get very bored 1 day and think about me and my blog and think yes i will watch that video today.
