Just back from Laguna College of Art & Design for an afternoon and evening with Glen Keane. I will be labeling the photos and writing up my story some time tomorrow. But for now here are the photos from the even.
Okay, here is the update. The event was great and very intimate, animator to animator. This his how I do it, this is what I have learned. Thank you Aubry for inviting me to the event before the Gallery opening.
Aubry Mintz, Animation Chair at Laguna College of Art & Design, doing an intro for Glen Keane
Very large group of student very glad to be here for the event.
3 steps to animation
Looking at sketches. The sletchbook keeps you fresh and true. The danger without the sketchbook is that you will start copying others or worse, yourself.
Sketches drawn from a moving Jeep in Africa.
The highlight was the animation that Glen did on the spot. It was great to see him feel his way through.
Tarzan drawings with the muscles added.
Notes in Glen`s sketchbook, thoughts on animal movement.
Rough animation test
Gallery show of sketchbook art, Like putting your soul up on the walls.
The guide told everybody to get their cameras out and Glen got out his sketchbook. You forgot your camera? You don`t have to really see to use a camera.
You know, you don`t really draw like Little Billy! I know, I keep telling him, Dad you are making me look bad But he just says that when he started the stripe I was Little Billy.
Girl in an airport
Glen would like to get more time to sculpt and to do his own animation.
The girl in the blue is from Israel, she is staying in L.A., she found out about the event through this web site and talked her father into driving in for the event. Look at her face, she has gotten to meet her hero.
Disney Imagineer in for the event.
There is something so real and fitting about this kid as he waits for his father to get done taking in the show. The father is waiting in line to talk to Glen.
