Paris & France under attack.

Post by Fabrice »

Well ... with the recent events, I think all our trips planed to visit CTN-Expo and various studios in California will be cancelled (our president has closed all borders).
Sorry for all people waiting for us. I just don't know what to say at the moment, ... just following the news, so sad .... deeply shocked.

(Can someone transform the post as global announce ?)

Thank you for your support...

According to government website, flights are maintained, but controls will be stronger, especially at borders (since there are no customs anymore between European countries, I cannot imagine how many policemen and soldiers they will need to close frontiers with Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Italy and Spain...).

You know, last time I flew to Paris I thought their security was tough enough, but now I'm sure it will be a lot worse ... makes it harder for those of us who love your city :(

Stayed up half the night to watch the news. Horrible. Someone asked me how this would change my habits. I don't change my habits, I'll just continue: trying to bring more reason into the world.

So I'll use your wonderful software to make films which may help in this task.

No one should have to alter their habits for any act of terror - which is an act of cowardice. Bravo for you!

Some of my colleagues could take their flight this morning. They should arrive in LA in few hours. I'm glad we can finally go to CTN. Indeed, I did not feel quite reassured yesterday (I went to bed at 4am, listening to the radio for updates), but show must go on and we shall stay calm and determined.

I'm glad that the airports are not shut down and you will be able to make your journey to California.

Again, let me express my shock and grief at seeing what has happened in France. The entire civilized world feels this attack and is in sympathy with France (this terror can strike us all) . I realize that it is much, much worse for those of you who live there and that this must seem like a dreadful and anxious time to leave home to travel overseas. Safe travels to you and I hope it will be a fruitful visit.

Thanks David,

Well, Metz is far from Paris, so the feeling of the fear and terror is not the same here.
However, doing a trip in California require to travel through Paris and big airports, which is much more stressful.
It will be the same when visiting studios in Paris in the coming months.

Thanks Markus. Such words are going deep inside our hearts.

Je lève les yeux en descendant la rue tout seul.
Alors mes larmes ne me mouilleront pas les joues quand je marche
Je me souviens des jours de printemps que j'ai passés avec toi,
Mais maintenant tous les soirs je suis tout seul

Je me lève les yeux en descendant la rue tout seul.
Je compte les étoiles floues en ayant les yeux larmoyants
Je me souviens des jours d'été que j'ai passés avec toi,
Mais maintenant tous les soirs je suis tout seul

J'espère avoir le bonheur au delà des nuages
J'espère avoir le bonheur en plein ciel

Je lève les yeux en descendant la rue tout seul.
Alors mes larmes ne me mouilleront pas les joues quand je marche
Avec les larmes aux yeux, je marche
Je marche dans la rue tout seul.

Je me souviens des jours d'automne que j'ai passés avec toi,
Et maintenant tous les soirs je suis tout seul

J'espère que mon chagrin s'en ira au delà des étoiles
J'espère que mon chagrin s'en ira au delà de la lune

Je lève les yeux en descendant la rue tout seul.
Alors mes larmes ne me mouilleront pas les joues quand je marche
Avec les larmes aux yeux mais je marche
Je marche dans la rue tout seul.

Keep your mind. Be strong.

Thanks Ten-Zero, all your messages are touching.
Some people here at TVPaint were linked indirectly with some people injured and/or killed by the terrorists (friends of familly relatives). We are thinking about them.

With a saddened heart for the loss of innocent lives I send my love, prayer and warm wishes to be strong in this hard time.
