I have started realizing one thing after doing a bit of hard work since the previous week. It is that there is no limit on how much you can make your animation better. After working for hours together on you animation, suddenly it looks like we are at a dead end, we don't know how much more to add and what to add. After looking at the same thing for a long time, it all looks fine. Till yesterday, I was quite satisfied with the Weight Lift Assignment I am working on. I got some good comments from Dhanu and also from Animation Monsters buddies. But when I opened the file today morning, it was looking crap. I can see more mistakes, not mistakes literally, but many small things that went unnoticed after working long on it. I took a break for sometime after yesterdays class. And the break worked, now I know many things which I have to work on and rectify.
There is no such limit to how much you can push your Animation. I heard my senior, Vinay saying that "Animators never complete their work, they only surrender." So, even I have been thinking for a while that animation can be atmost made presentable. It is amazing to see the animations created by professionals like Pixar, DreamWorks, Blue Sky and more, there is so much detail to it. At a student level, I don't stand anywhere to comment on their work. All I can do is to appreciate it and keep mum. Words fall short, my brain space feels so little when I sit down to admire the work and imagine how on the earth they do it. At the end of the day, it is all the learning process. I think, an artist never works in his lifetime, he only learns, learns and learns. I too hope to learn throughout my life and never there be a blockage in the flow of my creativity and imagination.
So, at last I would like to say that keep working, and when you keep coming back again and again, you will find newer ways to improve your shot. Also I must keep one thing in mind, that is to be quick, as once I get hired somewhere, I will also have to meet deadlines. So thinking from both sides will save the day. The term for such a thing can be called "Quick Quality". What say?
