Animation an illusion

                                                                 Animation?  just for kids!

Well, I totally disagree, Yes it may seem  easy if look at it but behind those cartoon characters you see move on Disney Channel, Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon it will take a lot of patience, creative juices and long working hours for you to finish a single episode for that, imagine just a single episode.

Yes, I may not consider animation as one of my chosen fields for a major in the near future but I do really appreciate the work and effort of each animator we have, not just in our country but in the whole world.

Sir Tito Romero

In celebration of the annual SOMA Week, some of the soma students organized an Artist talk about animation where we met Sir. Tito Romero he was able to show us a couple of pictures taken inside an animation studio and told us  that it would take about 18 weeks to finish up a single episode and we only watch it for about 20 minutes, Imagine in just 20 minutes approximately a hundred of animators were working behind every each movement of a character. They work for about 35- 40 hours a week but all that hard work and effort will pay off once they get their job done.

Being able to go to this kind of talks was an honor because he was able to show us a couple of his works/ projects (animations) including yogi bear, X-men, Scooby doo and so much more where not all students like me are able to see. He even showed a clip/compilation video of all of his works that made the future animation students more inspired in their chosen field above all his works are just fantastic. I’d like to work with him in the future if given a chance and also I would like to commend him for doing such great works.

You must lose yourself if you want to be successful in animation and be the character.
