Pixar's Short Films

           In the Disney Pixar films they always feature a short clip before the actual movie done by a small group of people who excel at graphic design and story telling. This one is one of my most memorable short films ever for me growing up as a kid. I loved the way they told the story of the old man playing chess against himself and how  such a simple story can get so intense. Even though its not the best animation to what we have today, its still one of my favorite short films for its simplicity and its humor.

  1. I remember watching this short film when I was younger! This was definitely one of my favorites as well. Sure, animation nowadays is a lot better than when this was created, but even so, this little short gives such a nostalgic feeling that you don't even notice the difference between then and today.

  2. I have always loved these short films! Pixar always manages to fill up these short movies with a great story with subtle humor that the viewer has to see themselves, it is not always obvious. These films always make me think and I love to watch them!

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

Speed Painting

This a painting made in Photoshop by a guy who goes by the name " The Concept Painter " on Youtube. He does lots of Photoshop speed painting videos and also air brush videos. This particular painting took him 3.5 hours to complete and was made using a drawing tablet similar to the ones we use in our class.

Another Comic Book Artist (Woo!): Annie Wu

 If you have talked to me for more than one minute, I am a huge nerd. So, I am making another post about comic book artists. This time it's Annie Wu. She's a comic book artists who lives in Chicago, and is one of my inspiration artists for my sustained investigation. A lot of her work is dramatic with deep and dark lines with bold colors which is makes style perfect for where I first found her work. I first saw her work in the Black Canary book in 2017. Eventually, I will talk about Marvel comic book artists, but not today. If you want to check out more of her work, here is her website:  https://www.anniewuart.com/
