Day 3- Friday 24 April
During class today, Alan talked to me a bit about my animation. He mentioned to me about having to look at how a kangaroo moves for a smooth and accurate delivery , guess he likes animals too. Haha.
I was actually not very sure if I should embark on this story as it involves a lot of drawing and people drawings, but my drawing is really weak.
However, after voicing out my worries, Alan explained to me that I could stylize it into my own way so that it can be achieved. And through this, it should help me boost my confidence for FYP. This i very motivating.
“You should not change your story because you feel you are unable to execute it, but try to overcome it in different ways, in the most creative ones you can think of that are achievable within your means.”“ When you feel weak, you can list that out in your learning contract as of your learning objectives, to make a smooth animation.” Alan commented, and also “ It’s the how you tell your story, not how well your drawing is.” These are some things he said to me, not the exact quotes, but the meanings are there.
It was really encouraging upon hearing these words. Although we all heard of these before, but somehow when you hear it coming personally to you from your lecturer, it feels more assuring and that someone still believes you can make it even though you know you are not up to it and sincerely wants to help you.
Thus, I would like to say to all my course mates, don’t feel disheartened and discouraged when you feel weak, show what you can do to the world in ways most unique yourself.
Hope the quotes in this posts can help you guys out when you feel discouraged, and lastly, don’t give up no matter what, and thank you Mr. Alan.(:
