Okay, I’ll be the first to admit this is a little weird. Jack Skellington from Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas was stop-motion animation, not hand drawn animation. So why is there a ‘learn to draw’ video for the Pumpkin King? Why? Because it’s October,… Read More »Learn to Draw: Jack Skellington
Both my prior Disney Cruise experiences involved short trips to Castaway Cay and back as part of the media preview for the Disney Fantasy and the Disney Dream. I hardly slept.
