Yamato Fanart

My goal for this year is to draw more pictures and guess what? I did :D
It's not that great and there are a lot of things I need to improve on. Here is is though, Yamato from Kancolle or Kantai Collection.

ACNL: Coco Fanart

Animal Crossing released their pocket camp app a while ago and I was inspired to draw fan art of my favorite villager. She's the cutest villager ever! My coconut bunny~

This first picture turned out a bit creepy a little weird. I pretty much scrapped it and made the second picture!

Love it! hehe 💕

Starting Up

I'm starting my journey now! I recently moved from the little island of Oahu in search for my career! I've applied to a couple animation companies but nothing has picked up BUT I did start a Youtube channel to encourage myself to practice and create animation videos and draw.

I realized my art and animation skills are not the best but I'm slowly getting better. I should of practiced more back at home but I was more concern about work and saving up money for the move. Now this is my chance to improve and get better :D

I Graduated! What now?

The struggles are real @-@
I've just recently graduated and have not found a job to start my adventure into the animation field. I should of prepared which didn't happen (obviously) :/ I lack artistic skill and my portfolio looks a little sad...

Therefore, beginning in the new year of 2016, I will hopefully conquer the new goal of entering into the animation field this year! >D
In the mean time, I need to have some source of income so a full-time job won't hurt. I will work and improve myself and my portfolio. I probably will be posting more as I improve or start a project.

I'm a nobody in the sea of beautiful artistic people -_-" Someday I'll reach them!

2D Final Scene

Reflection

     Enrolling into the animation program and experiencing ACM 216 this semester was an eye opener for me. Originally, I was always amazed by all the work and effort that is put into animated films. After this course, I have a new found respect for all the animators out there. The assignments I had to do for the class seemed quite simple. When I actually tried to do the assignments, it became harder than I thought. The critiques of the assignments during class time was helpful. I was able to understand why my assignments don not look quite right. Also, it became review when I did not understand a certain animation concept. 

     In this class, I learned about the seven animation principles. (Arcs, Squash and Stretch, Reversal of Curves, Successive Breaking of Joints, Secondary Motion, and Overlapping Action) The readings helped me because it explained the steps and gave examples on certain basic animation principles or tricks. I always knew that it will be tough to find a career in animation because there is a lot of competition. In order to stand out from the crowd of student animators, I learned that I have to have experience in multiple programs. As well as being able to draw 2D animation. After that lecture during class, I thought about my future. I can not expect myself to get lucky enough to find a job. I have to continue to practice drawing and animating.

     In the future, I hope to be able to have a career in animating. Whether I have my own company or work for someone. I want to become better so I can stand out from the sea of people who also have the same dream.
