Every so often I'll come across the gallery of person I don't know but whose work I do know. Thought I'd share some of those people's galleries with you.
Lauren Montgomery
You may know her as the director of the 2009 animated Wonder Woman film, and 2011's Batman:Year One. However, she is also an artist!
Here are her blogs: This Sucks, and LMU Animators
Sam Liu
Co-director of Batman:Year One with Lauren Montgomery. Also director of All-Star Superman, Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths and more.
Ki Hyun Ryu
This name may ring a bell if you read my Nightwing Thoughts entry and saw the awesome character design at the top. Ki Hyun Ryu is the gentleman who did that. He's an animator at Nickelodeon (omg Nickelodeon yayayaaaay!) and also one of Korra's directors. Here's his blog (which has been stagnant for a long time...): blacksataguni
Phil Bourassa
I've linked to his DA before, but here it is again. He's one of Young Justice's character designers. Yes, he's part of the awesomeness. He's also a character designer for Crisis on Two Earths. Made to order YJ figures Bourassa linked to from his DA.

Green Lantern: First Flight
Green Lantern: First Flight
(2009)
Directed by Lauren Montgomery
This movie is awesome! Animation quality is good, even great at moments (like the transformation).
So Hal Jordan inherits Abin Sur's ring, but when the Guardians find out Abin Sur's legacy has been handed down to a human they are displeased. Sinestro, a respected and feared Lantern suggests they give Hal Jordan a chance by letting the two work together for a bit. The Guardians agree.
After a short while of working together Hal Jordan sees that Sinestros methods for getting his man are all but humane. Sinestro even frames Hal Jordan for the death of the Corps' main suspect in the creation of a weapon as strong as the Green Lantern's battery. Sinestro has actually killed the suspect himself and is planning on finding and using the weapon. However because the Guardians believe Hal Jordan is responsible, they take from him the ring.
Big mistake, because Sinestro finds the weapon, essentially the same as the Green Lantern's battery but yellow. He swaps his green ring for a yellow one, then attacks the Corps.
Luckily Hal Jordan hadn't yet gotten sent back to Earth, because he find his ring and goes into the giant Lantern that houses the green battery. It seems that its dead from the attach from the yellow battery and it rains Green Lantern rings from the sky. All the Lanterns in space dies when the 'power went out'.
However, scratching the surface of the green battery reveals that under the dead outer coating, it's still alive inside. Hal Jordan holds his ring up to the battery while inside the giant lantern and becomes temporarily more super-powered that ever before.
With this new strength he takes out Sinestro and becomes the newest Green Lantern.
So when Hal Jordan transformed:
I did not make this youtube video, but it pretty much embodies how I felt about that sequence.
For the record though, this transformation sequence is totz boss. Love it.
Also, another nice touch to this movie was the choice to make Sinestro's teeth light yellow. Those little considerations add up to make a great animation.
