CHUCK DUKE

I think you gotta find something you love to do and then do it for the rest of your life.
— Rushmore

Hi. Hello there. Have a look around through these pages if you like but beware that I am not a tidy writer. On this site there are pictures and stories from my work and life in the animation industry. Over the years I have shared days with many talented artists that have given their time to guide and inspire. I take all of their lessons into every animated shot I work on. How to create a performance or maintain the energy to carry on has all come from friends I have made in this world of Animators.

Check out my ABOUT page then hop over to my WORK page where I get into some details about the Animation gigs I have been a part of. I try to keep adding to these pages as much as possible. There are many memories and some that I’m still not sure if I should write about. Thanks for looking and keep animating. “Cheers”.

THIS IS MY STOP MOTION SHOWREEL

THIS IS MY CG SHOWREEL

Short animation of me pitching my first poetic endeavor

For many years, trapped behind black curtains, I have jotted down my mental state while animating stop motion puppets. I put together some of those thoughts into a little poetic essay on the matter. The book is available on AMAZON.com Search this whole title “Moving Hold, by Chuck Duke” If you don’t include my name, you will get a bunch of websites for Moving and Packing supplies.
