Realizing Me: Special Post
Well I know the title of this post seems pretty lame or sappy but I couldn’t really think of any kind of other title but hopefully this post isn’t too cheesy tor boring. I decided to post today about my thoughts about and just everything that’s been happening in my mind I guess things are pretty shaky.
Helping Myself?
I’ve been trying to study Korean these days and thing aren’t looking to well I just found out from my mom that High schools around the county and country are planning to get rid of all other languages except, Italian, Spanish and French, because of the School Systems budget it’s suffering pretty bad.
To tell the truth I am still really disappointed about this I even cried a little I guess it’s because I really am passionate about learning Korean and also learning about the culture and to simply put it “I love it fills my heart with pure happiness.” But when I heard this news it was almost like a piece of me had been lost and taken away by force, I know I sound really, really dramatic but you know it’s not cool to take away a girl’s dreams and passions from her just a the last minute when she is about to become a high school freshman.
So, I guess right now I am at a rough patched I made a decision that I will just teach myself the Korean culture and Language, or try to find another pen-pal .
I think that I’m just worried that I won’t teach myself the proper way because teaching yourself and having a teacher to help you is two totally different things. But if I have to do this to get want I really want then so be it I guess. The only time they seem to offer the language is in College, which is still 4-5 years away for me. So looks like I’ll just fend for myself.
The Animation Fever
I still have been studying Animation my drawing has improved too I think but for some reason over the weekend I just kept on watching “ Indie Ani Box 셀마의 단백질 커피 예고편♡” I can’t even write how many times I watched “Love is protein By Yeon Sang Ho” and Wanted by Kim Woon-ki , I am just really in love with all the animation I guess, I have been now moving into the phase of coloring my photos with painter 12 they still look kind of babyish but I’m sure one day they will grow into something beautiful . Doing Animation and Art alone can sometimes be lonely but I always seem to have all these ideas in my head so many wonderful things I want to show people not only with words by art animation and just anything to be able to express myself.
I’m still counting my search for some more Korean animations so far I really would like to see Green: Days Dinosaur and I and also Leafie : A Hen into the Wild but what so very, very much want to see is “The King of Pigs By Yeon sang ho” I hate that it is only available in Korea. But I’m still hoping one day I can watch this and all other Korean animation. There just so interesting especially studio dada-shows I have never seen any animation like it before it just gives me a new feeling like breathing in fresh air of a new kind I just really ,really am just in awe with all this it’s so beautiful.
One of the things I try to tell myself is to try and develop my own way of drawing but I think I’ve become a bit to biased already it’s hard to find your own way but I also understand that it’s also okay to learn from someone’s work and develop that into your own way.
Being an Animator probably is going to be hard work especially in Korea I’m trying to figure out how to get a job a studio dada-show. But I want to make my own animations when I grow up too I want to show people things that scare them disgust them and something they have never seen before like a kind of sentimental culture shock it’ll be wonderful if I can do this and I know I will.
I also am curious about what it feels like to create something and have or see people’s reaction it seems to be that as humans certain things make us react certain ways but also it stems from the character, it’s like a puzzle perhaps that isn’t meant to be solved but maybe it is perhaps meant to be learnt from or studied from and made into something new in your world and image a kind of whimsical though of illusion I can’ it quite into words but I think true hearted artists and animators may understand what I’m trying to get at.
Drawings Art How to Go About?
I always wonder were people get their character ideas from I have to admit I’ve been a bit biased when I create some of my characters but I think it’s pretty cool to have an Artistic influence but at the same time I think it’s good to add your own flare to it, I keep finding myself wasting tree’s more and more every time I make a mistake I always ball it up or just leave it somewhere I think I just might turn my drawings into paper air planes and let them fly off into the sky I think maybe it will land in some other kids backyard and give them an idea? That would be pretty cool?
Sometimes I think that if you put your socks on and sit in your bathtub and if you fill the bath tub with water and just have your socks on and be just be naked that more ideas could flow to your head I’ve heard that it works but I haven’t tried it but I’m thinking maybe one day when I really need it.
Sincerely, A.K.W – The Girl & Creator/Animator
