I started with TBS 1.0 on the Mac but found it to be lacking in many areas and stuck with Flash until TBS 3.0 which I finally decided was a better product than Flash MX2004, so I made the big switch. It was a very good decision.
How difficult did you find the transition from traditional to digital animation?
Not difficult at all, I had the advantage of being an engineer and having spent years in computer systems design and software development I was very comfortable with computers and using software. Also being self-taught but classically trained in animated film making, the metaphor for TBS was easy to understand and I had learned film editing a few years earlier on a non-linear editing software, Final Cut Pro, so the time line concept was not new to me.
Are there any projects you¡¯re currently working that you can tell us about?
Most of the work we do at TGRS is client confidential, but I am currently working on a web comic that I hope to debut in a few months.
Please describe a typical work day for you.
There are few days that I have that are typical because I wear so many hats. Some days I work on projects for clients and some days I work directly with clients. Some days I¡¯m working as a management consultant. Some days I¡¯m working as a cartoonist and animator / cartoon maker. And some days I¡¯m doing systems analysis and design for software. And most days I do what is the highest priority to keep everything flowing so that I can get paid. It is mostly a client driven life.
Thank You
We certainly appreciate this glimpse into your daily life as well as your first days as an animator. Once JK¡¯s new web comic goes live it will posted about here. Thank you again!

Wow, he started one year before i was born. Thanks to all his meticulously prepared tutorials, so newbies like me can get started in animation. I guess many wouldn¡¯t be TBS converts if it weren¡¯t for JK¡¯s tutorials and his contributions in the forums.
