Animation and Art Blog

Some animations I did in class that I'm proud of. Bouncing Ball Water FX   Morph Head Turn (With Smear) Ball With Tail

 The other week we had a class presenter named Todd Ramsay from Yeti Creative and it was pretty damn cool. I have to admit that I cant remember it all that well, but I do remember it was an enlightening experience, and I took away some thoughts that really stuck with me. The first thing I remember about the presentation was the story of how Todd adjusted to using his left hand to draw when he couldn't use his dominant one. Though I guess his left hand was technically his dominant hand, but he was raised using his right hand to write and draw so I imagine it was still pretty difficult to switch over to the other hand. I also think the art and animations he showed us were really neat, especially so knowing he drew all that while learning to use his other hand.  I also learned from the presentation how tough it used to be for animators to find jobs, and how I've got it easier now days. I'm glad the chances of me getting a job right out of college are higher than they would be ...

My name's Falisha Kohn and this is where I'm gonna post art, animations, and maybe thoughts if I remember. I know I said this intro stuff in my lil profile thing, but an introduction post just doesn't seem right without all this. I'm a 2D animator and illustrator studying at CATO in Kelowna, and I'm making this blog for a class. Although this is technically homework, I'm gonna try to post my artwork and homework here consistently cause it'll probably be a good habit. Most of my posts will likely be WIP animations, finished animations, and digital paint homework. I hope this blog will showcase my growth as an artist and an animator over the course of my post secondary experience.  I don't know what else to write and I'm tired, so I guess this is it for now. Thanks for reading.
