This is a page dedicated to my personal views on Art and Animation. Both those concepts are ever in flux.
The role of animation is to communicate visually. Whom is the communicator and communicatee is not an absolute.
Challenge Narrative Structure
There are not absolutes in storytelling. Just the existence of the narrative. Transcending structure is a personal goal. Logic is key to understanding narratives, but absurdism, ignoring logic, delving through surrealist landscapes is a key to the method of creating compelling and original visual communication.
Utilize Visual Metaphors
Abstraction, utilitarianism, surrealism, and all those amazing graphic fundamental methods are keys to understanding visual metaphors. Exploring metamorphism, transitionals, iconography are keys to expanding the use of visual metaphors in the works of animation.
Facilitate Personal Expression
Explore Atmosphere and Sensory Experience
Visual Storytelling
The constant in animation is the visual element. What is expressed in the animation should be told visually to be considered a 'successful' animation.
Persistence of Vision
This is the phenomena which all of animation is pinned on. The eye is slower than the hand. Animation has many similarities to the technicals of sleight of hand magic.
