Bill Plymton Master Class
Yesterday I was fortunate enough to attend a masterclass by animator Bill Plympton (I posted the event last week)
Did not bring a camera, just my phone
It was an inspiring event, with some great drawing: he showed how many of his characters are made from really basic shapes, and drew a tiny sketch on a postcard for each attendee (I choose Guard Dog) And how does he survive as an independent animator? He is not beholden to any corporation he said, and then showed the following commercial, as he does do commercials:
His Dogma explains how you can make money creating independent animation: keep it short, cheap and funny!
