Cinderella Character Designs 

Glen Keane’s example of Rapunzel using her hair.

Okay, literally two things scare the ever living crap out of me: zombie and space.

So tell me why every animation plot I come up with includes one of the two (or maybe even both, ZOMBIES IN SPACE)

I need to come up with an idea for a show/short this summer and I want to do something about constellations but don’t want to read about them, someone help me

People from school keep asking me what I plan to work on animation wise this summer and I keep telling them I have no idea but I do have an idea and that idea is mermaids but I’m too embarrassed to tell them that

wait..the guy who used to run the Mushu animated show in WDW?

He worked on the character in the movie

Okay, I’m posting this because he has told me this twice now, so the first time wasn’t a fluke.

My teacher said I am going to be a great animator and I could have cried the first time he told me. It’s the first time someone has shown interest in something I am trying to achieve something with, let alone having it come from someone who animated Lilo and Mushu for Disney.

I don’t know, it was nice to hear words of encouragement from someone I look up to so much.

Today my Dad just casually texted me telling me he was on the phone with Tony Bancroft and I had already started celebrating my birthday so I couldn’t fully comprehend that until just now and OH MY GOD

My 8 am got canceled tomorrow, IT’S A BIRTHDAY MIRACLE!!

Also, who made it okay for me to be 21 tomorrow? 21 year olds always seemed so grown up and old and now that’s what I am going to be and I don’t feel like I should be allowed to be. 

I really should go draw architecture and perspectives but I don’t want to go outside/even leave my room ughhh

Wow, man guys, I have never animated this quickly before. I have done 120 frames in like 3 days, get at me.

bahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!
