Prompt 1:
- Hi there! My name is Deanna Vega, my major is animation and motion graphics. I picked this course because I thought it would be fun and that it fits my major. I don’t think I have a particular type of animation I’m more interested in. I hope that one day I get to work on my own personal projects as a sustainable career, or be in a studio/team I admire the values of. Besides that, I am a proud collector of 2 cats (Mochi Goliath Cinnamon Swirl and Onyx). I like to bake, digitally draw, and make jewelry.
Prompt 2:
- I really like the shows Gravity Falls and Demon Slayer. For Gravity Falls I love the characters and story telling. It appealed to me as a tween and I still admire it for the creativity and heart it had. For Demon Slayer it’s basically the same but I also admire the animation and style choices.
- Gravity Falls was aired in the summer of 2012 by Disney and then later Disney XD. The animation was 2D and they and would have used the program Toon Boom at the time (I’ve used that once in High School which I find cool).
- Demon Slayer is an anime first aired in Spring 2019 but was a manga previously. The studio that made the show is Ufotable. The animation is 2D with 3D CGI backgrounds, which I think is done in a very balanced way and many of the scenes are just stunning.
