i always thought i was a mediocre animator. i mean, i was never the best at school, nor was i the worst. just... average. the same thing when i first started working out of school.
there was a point just a few weeks ago, before starting on "wubbzy", that i was offered two positions- animating, and background painting. i chose animating. while out to dinner with "the girls" the other night, one of them told me that it was really good to have me back animating at the studio, and that she knew i would choose animating and then she went on about how much i always loved really good timing and every aspect of character animation. huh. i didn't know i liked it that much. i mean, i've always, always loved animation and now that i'm really back it's hit me... i guess i'm not so average after all.
one thing though- i miss the sound of a nicely sharpened pencil on paper flipping, flipping, flipping...
