From the first of three lectures by Adair Turner on Economic Growth, Human Welfare and Inequality at the LSE on 11 Oct (the subsequent lectures were on 12/13 Oct). You can listen here and they are also available as videos.

This week's sketches and my first characters

9/10/2010

Went to my first of 10 character animation lessons with an ex Disney animating dude Vincent Woodcock and drew non stop for an intense 2.5 hrs. Learning to draw anthropomorphic animals in 60 seconds was the first lesson, the task was a surprised cat - harder than it sounds trust me! Also what makes a cat and a dog a dog... never questioned it before but its not a simple thing to explain though children get it first time. Worked hard - pics are not brilliant but its the learning of the principles and the thought processes that count. Awesome though, love the character animation world view - everything must be convex, expressive, realistic enough to be believable, imaginative, personal, quick and comic. Yes. Good rules.
