6. Making movies - the XtraNormal

Correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't Tom West (he has an updated version of his book "In the Mind's Eye" out later this year) say that there are huge numbers of dyslexic individuals employed in the animation industry? Well here is an animation industry for the dyslexic individual. It is an online animation maker (cartoons that move!), which although I have not spent hours exploring, does appear to offer some learning potential with a difference (including motivation?). You can write your own script (it uses some form of text-to-speech to make characters speak), choose characters, change actions and facial expressions etc. Well worth a look.
