Dear Friends:
It's been a busy summer.
On October 13, we officially locked the final reel on "Bolt". Scheduled to release nationwide on November 21, this will be my first theatrical screen credit as well as a brief (illustrated) cameo on screen. Still part of the magic at Walt Disney Animation Studios, I have been re-cast to a short animated film starring the Bolt character "Rhino" (the hamster) due at the end of the year that will be put on the film's DVD.
After 10 months of 6 day, 70+ hour weeks - switching to normal work hours has taken some adjustment. I have utilized the "free" time by participating in organized recreational activities, becoming reacquainted with people like you, and enrolling in a project management class at UCLA Extension (boooo).
In August, I officially closed escrow on a new one-bedroom condominium unit at the Burbank Collection in downtown Burbank (check my new contact information). Given the timing and location, the opportunity was perfect. I have (still) only begun to settle in. It has been very exciting, and somewhat overwhelming, to be a southern California homeowner but something I am so fortunate to experience - especially in this current economy. And yes, housewarming party plans are in the works.
As for yourself, how is life?
Regards, -Mike
