There were several times where I considered what other genius projects I could be doing. There could have been something to do with music like song covers or song writing, or even something like perfecting a certain skill with my drawing. However, I really do believe forcing myself into this field really encouraged me to broaden my horizons.
Animation taught me that perfection isn't always key. Sometimes, it's just the fact that you managed to do something is satisfying enough. I feel that as long as I managed to finally do it, I improved even in the slightest bit.
If I were to continue on the route of animation, I would definitely have a thousand more test animations before I actually attempted a final cut, for those seem to be the most effective in helping me learn and grow as both an artist and an animator. I also believe that animating gives me a better sense of anatomy and structure, and will help me improve on making more realistic artwork.
Even though I don't think I'd put this into an actual career, it still reminds me of the old days when I wanted to be an animator. Maybe it might be a new passion brewing up, but for now, it's at least a nice reminder of the past. I'm happy I was able to take it on.
I feel that I was rather satisfied with my presentation for the genius hour, and put my full heart into it. However, I noticed that I often found myself shaking even though I wasn't too nervous. Weird, isn't it? It happens often with public speaking. I guess it's just nerves.
Anyway, I hope that my message got across to my audience and that they felt inspiration from my tale. It was an interesting journey, and I hope that other artists may consider taking part in animation for the future.
This was really an amazing journey to take part in, and the hard and long work was really worth it. Thank you all for reading.
