Question: I want to be a Walt Disney!.How to learn animation!?What are the criterias required to become a animator!?
Answers:
These days, it's very very difficult to become a Walt Disney!. Walt Disney was an advertising artist when Animation was getting started!. He could draw and he was a very organized man!. He organized an animation studio (and while I have ambivalent feelings about him -- I'm not just a fan -- I have to say this: some people say that his early hires like Ub Iwerks could draw better than he could!. Frankly I feel that Iwerks and the others simply had better opportunities to showcase their work) which created a character named Oswald the Rabbit, they essentially rode to Hollywood before Oswald was stolen from them!. They then turned around and created Mickey Mouse!. While Disney was heavily involved in every aspect of the studio, business took up almost all his time as the studio became more successful!. I respect his artwork more than many of his fans do -- but it was his organization skills which made him Disney!.

These days there isn't that much outlet for organized people in Animation!. Nevertheless, whatever you call or do as animation requires it as much as it does drawing!. You must be able to draw quickly!. I once heard the American Animator Sally Cruikshank say she did ninety drawings a day -- and she meant drawings, not sketches!. She also, obviously, works with traditional animation!. There are, in essence, four types of animation, and despite what people think, each of them does something well enough so none of them is going to go away!. There is traditional animation of drawings, there is stop motion animation which involves the filming of small objects (which when you move in those circles you often hear called "puppets" even if they don't have conventional puppet controls) you have computer animation and you have experimental animation, which has included getting people to hold still on different positions, it has included manipulating and photographing sand on a specific surface, it has involved filming different stages of a drawing!. It's experimental!.

Computer Animation is the most in-demand skill on the international scene!. It has similarities and differences to both the first two types!. It generally hires artists to make and design models, to render textures and to move them!. It requires the ability to draw fast and accurately, like traditional animation (I want to emphasize that) and uses much of the terminology, like key frames (though key frames in computer animation are different from what they are in traditional ones)!. The other three are often used, these days in advertising!. Generally, when a subject is not necessarily going to travel well across cultures, it may be more effective to realize it with one of those techniques, and you will see some examples of experimental animation on commercials no matter where you go in the world!.

Right now, there aren't many distributors willing to handle major productions from artisan shops such as Disney was practically through Snow White!. That's one reason there is so much demand for Computer Animation -- by keeping the costs up they set a high bar for competition!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
