First things first, would you tell us a bit more about yourself, and how you became an Animator?<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-3\"><p>Hi, thank you for the question. It was by providence that I was discovered and put to work animating my illustrations. A couple of years ago, I was doing mostly realistic pastel and oil portraits, lots of pet portraits.<\/p>\n<p>I had also illustrated a couple of books in a line drawing cartoon style which attracted the attention of songwriter, Dwight L. Wilcox II. Originally, he wanted a slide show of still illustrations to play during his song. I had taken a single animation class in college many years ago, so I knew we could pull off much more than a slideshow. I offered to make it a full music video and that was five films ago. We&#8217;ve been working together ever since. So a huge thank you to Dwight, who puts me up to all this.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-image-element\" style=\"--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-4 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"935\" height=\"526\" title=\"c3199b_569c9d1a9b9d48b5bb93ec3b663dbf00~mv2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_569c9d1a9b9d48b5bb93ec3b663dbf00mv2.webp\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_569c9d1a9b9d48b5bb93ec3b663dbf00mv2.webp\" alt class=\"lazyload img-responsive wp-image-39236\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27935%27%20height%3D%27526%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20935%20526%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27935%27%20height%3D%27526%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_569c9d1a9b9d48b5bb93ec3b663dbf00mv2-200x113.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_569c9d1a9b9d48b5bb93ec3b663dbf00mv2-400x225.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_569c9d1a9b9d48b5bb93ec3b663dbf00mv2-600x338.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_569c9d1a9b9d48b5bb93ec3b663dbf00mv2-800x450.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_569c9d1a9b9d48b5bb93ec3b663dbf00mv2.webp 935w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 935px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-4\" style=\"--awb-text-color:var(--awb-color4);--awb-text-font-family:&quot;LemonMilk&quot;;--awb-text-font-style:normal;--awb-text-font-weight:400;\"><p>How would you describe your work?<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><p>The most obvious thing about my films is the unique visual style of illustration. I use hand-drawn outlines in a dark color accented with a minimal but bright color palette to complement the tone of the song. My films looks like a print page except for the motion.<\/p>\n<p>By using paper textures I hope to give the feel of print media with colors separated for screenprinting or offset printing. This lends a graphic design quality. I tell an effective and complete story with the most efficient and minimal animation. The stories are usually of someone pining for love with an ambiguous ending.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-image-element\" style=\"--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-5 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"939\" height=\"526\" title=\"c3199b_1d492cc55f8247b8af311590ff66fd6d~mv2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_1d492cc55f8247b8af311590ff66fd6dmv2.webp\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_1d492cc55f8247b8af311590ff66fd6dmv2.webp\" alt class=\"lazyload img-responsive wp-image-39228\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27939%27%20height%3D%27526%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20939%20526%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27939%27%20height%3D%27526%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_1d492cc55f8247b8af311590ff66fd6dmv2-200x112.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_1d492cc55f8247b8af311590ff66fd6dmv2-400x224.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_1d492cc55f8247b8af311590ff66fd6dmv2-600x336.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_1d492cc55f8247b8af311590ff66fd6dmv2-800x448.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_1d492cc55f8247b8af311590ff66fd6dmv2.webp 939w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 939px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6\" style=\"--awb-text-color:var(--awb-color4);--awb-text-font-family:&quot;LemonMilk&quot;;--awb-text-font-style:normal;--awb-text-font-weight:400;\"><p>What are your favorite subjects or topics to draw?<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-7\"><p>My favorite subject is the figure.

I&#8217;m intrigued by the way a person&#8217;s appearance, expression, and stance can put their beliefs and attitudes on display.<\/p>\n<p>Dwight&#8217;s songs give away some of the story, but as the director and animator, I love filling in the details with my own interpretation.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-image-element\" style=\"--awb-margin-top:5%;--awb-margin-bottom:5%;--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-6 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"939\" height=\"526\" title=\"c3199b_daa4be4f0e9d4918add6043310a426eb~mv2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_daa4be4f0e9d4918add6043310a426ebmv2.webp\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_daa4be4f0e9d4918add6043310a426ebmv2.webp\" alt class=\"lazyload img-responsive wp-image-39231\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27939%27%20height%3D%27526%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20939%20526%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27939%27%20height%3D%27526%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_daa4be4f0e9d4918add6043310a426ebmv2-200x112.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_daa4be4f0e9d4918add6043310a426ebmv2-400x224.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_daa4be4f0e9d4918add6043310a426ebmv2-600x336.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_daa4be4f0e9d4918add6043310a426ebmv2-800x448.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_daa4be4f0e9d4918add6043310a426ebmv2.webp 939w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 939px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-8\" style=\"--awb-text-color:var(--awb-color4);--awb-text-font-family:&quot;LemonMilk&quot;;--awb-text-font-style:normal;--awb-text-font-weight:400;\"><p>Where do you get your ideas or inspiration from?

I spend a lot of time wearing headphones listening to the song and just visualizing all the possible ways I could interpret a verse, chorus, or instrumental break. I get my ideas for color from the instrumentals. I get my basic character from the lyrics. From the vocals, I can imagine more about who the singer is and what happens to them.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-image-element\" style=\"--awb-margin-top:5%;--awb-margin-bottom:5%;--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-7 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"936\" height=\"526\" title=\"c3199b_8461a8432dd046d3a64f5100994a8481~mv2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8461a8432dd046d3a64f5100994a8481mv2.webp\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8461a8432dd046d3a64f5100994a8481mv2.webp\" alt class=\"lazyload img-responsive wp-image-39238\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27936%27%20height%3D%27526%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20936%20526%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27936%27%20height%3D%27526%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8461a8432dd046d3a64f5100994a8481mv2-200x112.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8461a8432dd046d3a64f5100994a8481mv2-400x225.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8461a8432dd046d3a64f5100994a8481mv2-600x337.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8461a8432dd046d3a64f5100994a8481mv2-800x450.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8461a8432dd046d3a64f5100994a8481mv2.webp 936w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 936px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-10\" style=\"--awb-text-color:var(--awb-color4);--awb-text-font-family:&quot;LemonMilk&quot;;--awb-text-font-style:normal;--awb-text-font-weight:400;\"><p>How long does it normally take you to complete a project?

It depends on the scope of the project, how long the song is, and how efficiently I work. I take a lot of thinking time as I am figuring out the character design, storyline, and pacing. In this stage, I do a lot of tweaking my ideas.<\/p>\n<p>I use Illustrator and a Wacom tablet to create still elements in a line drawing style. I use Adobe Animate to add lip-sync, occasional frame-by-frame motions, object motions and camera work. Once I begin in Animate, I have to commit within each scene as I go. Skipping around is problematic. I work from start to finish with no going back and tweaking actions after they are laid down. It&#8217;s not like editing and re-editing live-action footage.<\/p>\n<p>I like working this way because it captures fresh energy in the drawings. It prevents me from changing my mind midstream or worrying over minor details. Everything works together to serve the story and most often those tweaks are just not necessary to the film.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-image-element\" style=\"text-align:center;--awb-margin-top:5%;--awb-margin-bottom:5%;--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-8 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"940\" height=\"526\" title=\"c3199b_2723bf0b3c184ba483c55a53407cd339~mv2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_2723bf0b3c184ba483c55a53407cd339mv2.webp\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_2723bf0b3c184ba483c55a53407cd339mv2.webp\" alt class=\"lazyload img-responsive wp-image-39230\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27940%27%20height%3D%27526%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20940%20526%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27940%27%20height%3D%27526%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_2723bf0b3c184ba483c55a53407cd339mv2-200x112.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_2723bf0b3c184ba483c55a53407cd339mv2-400x224.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_2723bf0b3c184ba483c55a53407cd339mv2-600x336.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_2723bf0b3c184ba483c55a53407cd339mv2-800x448.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_2723bf0b3c184ba483c55a53407cd339mv2.webp 940w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-12\" style=\"--awb-text-color:var(--awb-color4);--awb-text-font-family:&quot;LemonMilk&quot;;--awb-text-font-style:normal;--awb-text-font-weight:400;\"><p>Who are your favorite Artists, whether in Animation or in other forms (comics, painting\u2026), and why so?<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-13\"><p>My favorite artist of all time is Albrecht D\u00fcrer. He was working at the time the printing press was invented. He did amazing drawings and paintings, but it is his black and white mass-produced woodcuts that fascinate me. Imagine the first printed materials coming out and how momentous that was.<\/p>\n<p>D\u00fcrer&#8217;s compositions keep the eye busy by filling his images with details to the brim. He extended the viewing time just as film does. The viewer essentially is panning across the image as in a comic book. I like that he was one of the first artists in print and a popular crowd-pleaser in his time like Shakespeare. His popularity would have rivaled the biggest comic book artist of today. His work is full of expressive figures and emotion. Other than the printed look, my films really don&#8217;t resemble his style, but he is still my favorite.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-image-element\" style=\"text-align:center;--awb-margin-top:5%;--awb-margin-bottom:5%;--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-9 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"938\" height=\"526\" title=\"c3199b_8d57bed5dde345f6b308c9c9b871fc5a~mv2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8d57bed5dde345f6b308c9c9b871fc5amv2.webp\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8d57bed5dde345f6b308c9c9b871fc5amv2.webp\" alt class=\"lazyload img-responsive wp-image-39233\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27938%27%20height%3D%27526%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20938%20526%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27938%27%20height%3D%27526%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8d57bed5dde345f6b308c9c9b871fc5amv2-200x112.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8d57bed5dde345f6b308c9c9b871fc5amv2-400x224.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8d57bed5dde345f6b308c9c9b871fc5amv2-600x336.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8d57bed5dde345f6b308c9c9b871fc5amv2-800x449.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.world-film-festival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/c3199b_8d57bed5dde345f6b308c9c9b871fc5amv2.webp 938w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 938px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-14\" style=\"--awb-text-color:var(--awb-color4);--awb-text-font-family:&quot;LemonMilk&quot;;--awb-text-font-style:normal;--awb-text-font-weight:400;\"><p>What tips do you have for aspiring artists and designers?<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-15\"><p>My experience learning animation in college was so limited and so long ago that I was basically starting from scratch as an older person.

Tracks come to me from songwriter Dwight L. Wilcox II. The singer and instrumentalists will have each recorded their part separately. Animation is all the more useful when people cannot record together.<\/p>\n<p>For big movies, Covid hastened the demise of the theatrical release system as the rise of streaming platforms created the perfect venue for us all to relax at home and binge-watch through quarantine.
