3 ANIMATIONS: HAND, INDEXICAL, ILLUSION.

For my animation showing the creator’s hand, I chose Alan Becker’s fourth entry in his Animator vs Animation series. As the name suggests, he fights the stick figure he created in his animation software.

For my indexical animation, I chose a stop motion called Mitosis. The creator goes by the name Guldies. Mitosis animation however is very surreal, and get’s a little trippy. Despite that, you can see and feel the dedication. The sculpting, motion, and even sound design line up perfectly to create a miniature masterpiece.

Lastly, my illusion choice comes from one of the greatest animated films of all time.

The Prince of Egypt Pencil tests are WAY TOO SMOOTH. Dare I say some tests may even surpass the Richard Willams level! Go to the time stamp 3:29 and catch your jaw before it hits the ground.

Some of the Dreamworks animators. William Salazar also did one of the tests.
