With that being said, I suppose it's painfully obvious that I dig comics. However, I also enjoy things a little closer to my work, like video games and movies.
I have a tendency to attract people like flies and keep them interested in what I have to say making me a strong leader, even when I don't really want to be. What can I say? People just like me! It's a mysterious power.
More importantly, and on topic, I think I should tell you why I'm a character animator. Well, put simply, Jurrasic Park. When I saw that movie and some of it's "making-of's" on television, I was amazed! I had always been enthralled by animation, but this was different; more powerful, more real. While I may not be able to make the beautiful models that look so much like the real thing, I certainly can make them live. That, in my opinion, is the very reason for animation and my reason for being an animator.
