Over the years, Mark Hamill has become an extremely prolific voiceover actor, with a knack for coming up with perfectly suited voices for characters, like the one he plays in the new animated film "The Wild Robot." #MarkHamill #TheWildRobot #voiceactor #voiceover #animatedfilm #characterdevelopment #interview #behindthescenes #Movies #MovieNews #Entertainment #Entertainmentnews #Celebrities #Celebrity #celebritynews #celebrityinterviews

Made a short animation about bar charts. 29 tips in two and a half minutes. (Complete with comedy Gallic jazz). #datavisualization #infographics

I’m sharpening my skills in CGI to push creative boundaries in filmmaking and visual effects.

Quality stands the test of time. Look at Disney films from 80 to 90 years ago. They’re still some of the best animation in history. People love that style. It’s hand drawn and has personality. Exaggerated and unrealistic to make it funny. Every sound effect adds depth to the scene. Animation shows the story - it doesn’t need constant dialogue. Then you look at some of today’s trash. People will forget a 1 year old film exists because it failed to live through its launch. Weak story. Lame characters. Good animation but soulless direction. So focus on quality at all times to leave an impact in your industry.

Before you over complicate your data presentation watch this….

"Anyone can do it" is an animated short film created in one week to express feelings of frustration regarding the current environment in the creative industries. All art and animation is hand-drawn by me in procreate. https://lnkd.in/dqQtdTcG #animation #indieanimation
