Do we need to learn 2d Animation in order to be proficient in 3d computer animation?

Posted by: animation paraiso in Film and Theater

Do we need to learn 2d Animation in order to be proficient in 3d computer animation?  The answer is no.  A student who aspire to be a 3d computer animation professional does not need to learn the 2d animation discipline.  What is needed is for him to understand the discipline behind 3d animation.

Animation has its general principles that are both true for 2d and 3d animation. But the said disciplines differ on how they appreciate the form and the function of the animation medium. Thus, one must be careful in using terms. Meaning, 2d and 3d are the general or broad animation classification in terms of medium.  For example, 2d animation may refer to glass painting animation, sand animation, paper cut out animation and cel animation. While 3d animation may refer to clay animation, "stop-motion_ animation " and "puppetry".

The application of technology does not change the over-all medium, rather, it provides an alternative technological production in terms of the animation process. Thus, 2d computer animation or 3d computer animation is not a medium but technology applied.  Recognition of the technology applied and the animation medium is essential in transmiting animation education to students.

If, as animation educators, we are unable to understand the fundamental differences, we might teach our students the wrong way of appreciating animation as a human experience within the parameters of science, art, business, visual documentation and medium of communication.

Vandalism As An Animation Approach To Reality

Posted by: animation paraiso in Film and Theater

Vandalism, for me , is dynamic and aggressive art movement, genre and approach to reality.  It may refer to the movement that is often marginalized within a highly urbanized section of the mainstream public.  A section that is often neglected by the mainstream.  People may refer to the movement as an underground collective that uses the street as its primary window of expression.

Genre denotes the feel of the concept of vandalism.  It is raw and dynamic with an edgy transformation of mainstream symbols into "in your face" and provocative metaphors that are "young-modern" in terms of sensibility.

The heaviness of the lines, the saturated colors and the unpredictable texture reveal a perspective of  urgency and frustration.  The need to be heard, the need to leap out from the walls and the need to shove people's minds. 

Vandalism for me is a good approach to reality in the context of Philippine Animation.  It might work

Vandalism : An Art Movement In Animation

Texture in this approach tend to be ultra-flexible.  It assumes the texture of the medium it is applied on so to speak.  And the  mediums in this case are often diverse from wood to concrete.   I feel that when translated to animation, a character may assume different types of medium surfaces.  The surface may denote the 3 elements of a character including the fourth dimension that may denote to the soul of any character design.

Designing a world in this case may also be diverse.  Considering that the texture of the design depends on the medium it is attached to.  I see it visually interesting specially when we are using metaphors like the concrete jungle or a city of glasses.   I think that there are  a lot of things we can do with this young modern approach.  Imagination in this case in terms of texture is vast and not limited.  It may also range from organic to inorganic surfaces with 3 dimensional perspectives.

The Animation Push

Posted by: animation paraiso in Film and Theater

Two animated features made it in the mainstream or perhaps the top categories of the Oscars 2009.  Waltz With Bashir ( Israel) is one of the nominees for best foreign language feature category while Wall-E ( Andrew Stanton, Jim Reardon, Pete Docter
) is one of the nominees for best original screenplay.  What is exciting is that, Wall-E is competing with Frozen River, Happy Go Lucky, In Bruges and Milk.  I hope that this will inspire us more in this forum.  That animation is not just a  part of motion picture, rather, it is an independent entity capable of competing with non-animated features.

Philippine Animation is not an industry but an idea.

Posted by: animation paraiso in Film and Theater

Philippine Animation is not an industry but an idea. It is an idea that is waiting to become a concept. A concept that yearns to capture the imagination of a generation. A generation that is vibrant, fearless and bold.

These are young men and women who are valiantly creative and sincerely grounded to understand the nature, potentials and limitations of Philippine Animation. They are not afraid to uplift the stature of their craft and transform it into a dynamic, nurturing and self-sustaining model from which an industry will be born.

Philippine Animation is an idea. An idea we believe in, an idea we will fight for and an idea that we deserve. This is not a plea of reckless idealism. Rather, this is a vision of practical optimism.

True, my generation is destined not to see the eloquence that is a birth of an industry and with fondness I accept this unfortunate fate. But to those who are the vanguards of this impending future from which legends are forged. To them, this idea is a seed that hopes to grow.

For we are but caretakers of this grand vision,

A legacy that is not of words but of heartfelt actions,

This is the true Art and Science of Philippine Animation
