[Jody Culkin]

Hi every­one, thought I would post here as well.

I don’t have a major, ob­vi­ously. I teach in the Media Arts and Tech­nol­ogy de­part­ment, mostly MMP or MMA courses, as well as Intro to 2D An­i­ma­tion. I started an­i­mat­ing when I was in col­lege, draw­ing by hand, doing stop mo­tion, and ro­to­scop­ing.

I love Bo­jack Horse­man. Why? the char­ac­ter de­sign, the humor, and the dark na­ture of the car­toon all ap­peal to me.

It’s dif­fi­cult for me to name a fa­vorite an­i­mated movie,  there are so many and with so many dif­fer­ences in style and con­tent. I might pick Up from Pixar, which I did par­tic­u­larly love. The grouchy old guy re­minded me of my fa­ther, and I loved all the Doug the dog jokes.

[Anna Proios]

Hello! My name is Anna Proios. My major in BMCC is An­i­ma­tion and Mo­tion Graph­ics. My fa­vorite an­i­mated movie is Dis­ney’s An­i­mated Hunch­back of Notre Dam. I ba­si­cally love every­thing about this movie. The vi­su­als are breath­tak­ing, the music is great, the char­ac­ters are unique, and the sto­ry­line is top-notch (in my opin­ion). My fa­vorite an­i­mated tv show is Avatar: The Last Air­ben­der. The show in my opin­ion is beau­ti­fully an­i­mated with such an amaz­ing sto­ry­line. I look for­ward to work­ing with you all!

[jesus M cerda]

Hello, my name is Jesus Cerda. I am from the Do­mini­can Re­pub­lic, came to the united states in 2010. I was 14 years old at that time. I have watched many an­i­mated movies, but there is one that I like, “the angry birds.” What i like about that movie is the story-line and how well each char­ac­ter plays their unique part. The red bird is al­ways angry; the yel­low one is super fast; a big black bird ex­plodes; it is full of in­di­vid­ual char­ac­ter. My fa­vorite an­i­mated TV show is Hilda be­cause the draw­ing style is dif­fer­ent than oth­ers, and it pro­vides a lik­ing to it. The story takes you on an ad­ven­ture, and the way things hap­pen have a smooth trans­ac­tion. I want to get the best out of this class as I can. My goal is to be­come an an­i­ma­tor and draw comic books in my free time. I look for­ward to meet­ing new peo­ple and work­ing with all of you!

[Iseosa Guobadia]

I love Hilda !!

And it’s cool that you want to make comics on the side.

I wish you good luck.

 

[Leslie]

Hello, My name is Leslie Dominguez, I’m 19 years old and I’m Mex­i­can-Amer­i­can. My major is Lib­eral Arts and I’ve been study­ing at BMCC at about 2 years. My fa­vorite An­i­mated Movie is “Your Name”, I re­ally love the art within the movie as well as the story. The art has an aes­thetic that I’m drawn too. The Movie “Find­ing Dory” was also re­ally beaut­fiul movie. My fa­vorite an­i­mated show is Ad­ven­ture Time, It was one of my fa­vorite shows grow­ing up, it was a very un­pre­dictable and funny show. A swell as some other child­hood shows, such as Fairly Odd Par­ents, Danny Phan­tom and Sponge­bob.

 

[Natalia]

Hi, my name is Na­talia.  My major is Mul­ti­me­dia Pro­gram­ming and De­sign. I am a fresh­man, this is my sec­ond se­mes­ter. I’m 19 years old. My fa­vorite an­i­mated movie would have to be the re­cent an­i­mated The Ad­dams Fam­ily. I liked how they gave Mrs.​Addams and Wednes­day’s oval shaped heads. I also like the de­signs they did for the fam­ily’s eyes. My fa­vorite an­i­mated tv show is Tokyo Ghoul be­cause it’s my fa­vorite anime. Car­toon wise would have to be Avatar the Last Air­ben­der be­cause it was my fa­vorite tv show grow­ing up.

[Meghan Ramirez]

Hello Every­one!! My name is Meghan Ramirez, I am 20 years old. My major in BMCC is An­i­ma­tion and Mo­tion Graph­ics. My fa­vorite an­i­mated movie is Pixar’s In­side Out (2015)  I per­son­ally con­nected with the story and it’s char­ac­ters as the movie tack­led on more deeper top­ics that weren’t brought up be­fore and ac­tu­ally taught you a lot. My fa­vorite an­i­mated tv show is Mirac­u­lous: Tales of La­dy­bug & Cat Noir. The show is unique cause it’s the first car­toon to have it be made from com­plete 3d an­i­ma­tion. With that being said, I hope I get to know you all and I’m look­ing for­ward for us to work to­gether and im­prove on our an­i­mat­ing skills.

[Marvin Monegro]

Hello, My name is Mar­vin Mon­e­gro. I’m 19 years old and I’m an an­i­ma­tion major. I’m also a fresh­man and this is my sec­ond se­mes­ter in BMCC. My fa­vorite an­i­mated movie would be “Spi­der-man Into the Spi­der-verse” be­cause of the amaz­ing an­i­ma­tion that they did for the film and how how in­ter­est­ing the story line was. my fa­vorite an­i­mated show would be Steven uni­verse be­cause of how the story has in­spired me to try and cre­ate my own an­i­mated se­ries. How­ever, there are many other shows that I would con­sider my fa­vorite be­cause of how I’ve grown up watch­ing them as a child and how they have drove me into be­com­ing an an­i­ma­tor.

[Hsuanhua Chen (Ella)]

Hello, my name is Hsuan­hua Chen, Ella for an eas­ier life. My major is An­i­ma­tion and Mo­tion graph­ics, and I’m a fresh­man at bmcc. My fa­vorite anime movie is the Stu­dio Ghi­bli se­ries, like sprites away, they’re my child­hood. My fa­vorite an­i­mated tv show is Rick and Morty, I like to like deep about hu­man­ity and all the darker stuff, it’s hard for me to de­scribe what kind of show it is, it in­cludes many things, and using funny, sar­cas­tic way to show the au­di­ences.

[Jing Lin]

Hi every­one! My name is Jing Lin. My major is mul­ti­me­dia pro­gram­ing and de­sign. Fa­vorite an­i­mated movies and an­i­mated TV shows? I’ve only seen one an­i­mated movie called Spir­ited Away, so I’m not sure if it’s my fa­vorite. But an­i­mated TV show is Do­rae­mon, the role I like so much, be­cause it has a magic pocket, this TV se­ries is my child­hood mem­o­ries.

[Iseosa Guobadia]

Hi. I’m Aisosa, (pro­nounced I-SO-SUH.) I’m a fresh­men and this my third se­mes­ter at BMCC. I’m an an­i­ma­tion and mo­tion graph­ics major. I plan on be­com­ing an an­i­ma­tor, and I might pick up car­toon­ing on the side. In the mean­time, I chat with my friends/art group. We’re work­ing on a we­b­comic, and some days we’re try­ing to build con­nec­tions with other artists.
One of my fa­vorite an­i­mated movies is Dumbo (1940’s ver­sion). It’s an out­cast/un­der­dog film. It starts off de­press­ing in the first act, which makes the end­ing’s pay­off count. I also like the music, back­ground and songs. Vin­tage Dis­ney songs, to me, sound dreamy and whim­si­cal.
Fa­vorite an­i­mated show at the mo­ment, is Kid Cos­mic. It’s cre­ated by an an­i­ma­tor, whose works I love. Com­pared to his pre­vi­ous works, this is more story-based. It has a “fun­nies” comic book art style, it’s rem­i­nis­cent of “50s at­tack of space in­vaders” stuff. (Even the name gives off that spiffy space boy hero vibe.) What lacks in set­ting, makes up for in char­ac­ters. The dy­nam­ics be­tween the towns­folk, the main five, even the alien char­ac­ter, they’re all nice. The sound­track is sub­tle, but there are some bangers hid­den there. I be­lieve the show is whole­some and dark, and one the best things to come out this year.

[Alexandra Geiser]

Hi, my name is Alex Geiser. I am a An­i­ma­tion and Mo­tion Graph­ics major. My fa­vorite an­i­mated movie is Fan­tas­tic Planet. The hand drawn il­lus­tra­tions are beau­ti­ful and the world of the film is per­fectly sur­real. While I also love movies in the Hayao Miyazaki/Stu­dio Ghi­bli realm, I’m more in­ter­ested in pur­su­ing Fan­tas­tic Planet-style an­i­ma­tion. My fa­vorite an­i­mated show is Pingu. I love the stop-mo­tion clay­ma­tion. Pingu is a Swiss chil­dren’s show, but it trans­lates across the board since it re­lies so heav­ily on the vi­sual com­po­nent and the char­ac­ters speak in noises rather than a real lan­guage, which I think is pretty cool.

[SaiLungCash Jeung]

Hi, my name is SaiLung­Cash Jeung, you can also call me Cash. My major is An­i­ma­tion and Mo­tion Graph­ics, this is my sec­ond se­mes­ter here at BMCC My fa­vorite an­i­mated movie is Gur­ren La­gann the Movie: Child­hood’s End. The paint­ings and move­ments in the movie are very smooth and ex­quis­ite. In the story, we can see how the pro­tag­o­nist grows and see his changes.

My fa­vorite an­i­mated tv show is The Ir­reg­u­lar at Magic High School. The se­ries is set in a world with an al­ter­nate his­tory, where magic ex­ists and has been pol­ished through mod­ern tech­nol­ogy. I like this style of back­ground very much.

[Kaleek Grant]

Hi, my name is Kaleek. I am an an­i­ma­tion major. My fa­vorite an­i­mated movie is Spi­der-man: Into the Spi­der-verse be­cause of the crossover be­tween the var­i­ous spi­der-re­lated char­ac­ters as well as the com­bi­na­tion of 3D and 2D an­i­ma­tion with a comic book style. One of my fa­vorite an­i­mated shows is Demon Slayer. The story is pretty in­ter­est­ing and an­i­ma­tion is re­ally fluid es­pe­cially dur­ing the com­bat scenes.

[Christina Perez]

hi my name is Christina Perez. I’m in an­i­maion and mo­tion graph­ics major. My fa­vorite an­i­ma­tion is Hunter x hunter. I loved the show OVER­ALL. The plot, the char­ac­ters, and LOVED the fore­shad­ow­ing and build up. At this point i can’t even ex­press how much i loved the show. I like to play video games and watch anime. Just a nor­mal weeb :>

[Suprem]

Hi my name is Suprem Lama. My major is aima­tion and mo­tion graph­ics. I love watch­ing anime and my fa­vorite anime is dragon ball. I love watch­ing dragon ball be­cause its easy to get into and when you get into watch­ing the show there is a lot that makes you love it. My fa­vorite an­i­mated movie would be kung Fu Panda 3.  I love watch­ing this an­i­mated movie be­cause its in­ter­est­ing. I love watch­ing anime, play­ing games, and mak­ing beats.

[Adelina Santana]

Hello! My name is Adelina San­tana and I am 18 years old. I am a fresh­man and my major is An­i­ma­tion/Graphic De­sign. My fa­vorite an­i­mated movie would have to be Howls Mov­ing Cas­tel. This is my fa­vorite movie be­cause I love the scenery in the movie and the char­ac­ter de­sign. My fa­vorite an­i­mated tv show would have to be Avatar the Last Air­ben­der. This is my fa­vorite show due to the amaz­ing sto­ry­line, char­ac­ter arcs, and just every­thing about this show! Some fun facts about me are I love to bake and cook. My fa­vorite dishes to make is Spam Musubi and Lasagna. When I’m not cook­ing up a storm at home I’m skate­board­ing all around the city.
