Pura vida animada - Pure life animated- a very brief synopsis of the state of animation in Costa Ric

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5p3fWbEZ8R4 As quick last minute final entry for this week I would like to turn your eyes to the small Central American country which holds a special place in my heart, Costa Rica, and its struggles in the animation industry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S27gtX_2nws Costa Rica has had a somewhat unimpressive animation industry though not for lack of trying; in fact the few animation companies that exist in this small country do constantly fi

Of hedgehogs and trailers

It’s quite drastic how ones opinion can change about a production based on the aesthetics of a single asset, the asset in this case being a character redesign for Sonic the Hedgehog for a live action film named after the stated character “ Sonic the Hedgehog” release date set for February 14. The controversy around this movie began with the release of a few obscure posters which depicted only a silhouette of the titled character, and immediately concerns arose on the oddly hu

Green side up

I have to confess I was entirely wrong about this. The new Netflix series “ Green Eggs and Ham” produced by Gulfstream Pictures, A Stem Talking To, A Very Good Production and Warner Bros Animation, seemed to me to be yet another butchering of Dr. Zeus and I was ready to go and help him roll back around in his grave. Though I ought to be given some leniency in believing this to be the case, considering the stream of less than impressive, and in some cases outright horrid, film

Too rebel to die

James dean was Hollywood’s 1950’s iconic bad boy, his live fast attitude was comparable only to his talent as an actor; Yet when you live fast you run the risk to die fast, and unfortunately in 1955, at the age of 24, he died in a car crash. Though he only had 3 credited film roles, he is to this day known a one of film history’s biggest stars and his popularity has wavered little with is name being instantly recognizable by even today’s generation. That may soon change as

The short stack, a look at “Shattered” by Suyoung Jang

(SPOILER WARNING) If you do not wish this to be spoiled for you, I recommend you watch the film on the following link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHPPCOAllMs , prior to reading the rest of the blog. (SPOILER WARNING) Please note that these are my views on this film with the only research done on it being the viewing of the short itself. The film is a finely rendered 2:33 short, about a robot who is cast to the trash after failing to adhere to the desired mold, this mold

The Animator’s Journey

Artists in general know all too well the deep internal emotional and psychological strife of having universes full of stories locked within our minds, calling out and struggling to get out. This is one of the reasons why many of us go into areas like animation as a possible conduct to eventually help us push forward at least one of the narratives in the bubbling cauldron of our minds and souls and once out, possibly appease those fires for a little while. But the process of v

In the den - A look at " White Snake" animated film.

White Snake is a 2019 animated film directed by Amp Wong and Ji Zhao, a beautifully rendered 3D animated feature from Light Chaser Animation. This film is loosely based on one of China’s most beloved folk tales “Legend of the White Snake” or “Madame White Snake” and narrates events that took place 1000 years before the tale. Legend of the White Snake is very significant in Chinese lore and mythology being translated into a vast number of movies, television series, books, oper
