Telling Stories as Animations


Everyday, meaningful stories revolve around my head, things I don't want left for dead, I want to color them to life, and flesh them out with my pen. Hell, its even okay if tears are shed. I'm not a novelist nor a poet, but my stories are worthing knowing deep down I know it. There are themes kids may not get, things some adults could forget. But between universal understanding and expanding of  ideas manifesting happiness, random acts of kindness, civil rights activists I know I can influence things and make a difference in mass media its the new outlet for information for our growing generation. In contemplation I've been looking for my place in this nation, and it's in the arts and in animation, theres room for more than just nonsense jokes, hokus pokus, silly antics, and offensive folks. A certain beauty in making something special everyone can appreciate, adding things people can relate to on an every day to day basis like certain pains that I've faced everyother day. Cause I'm inspired with this dream, I won't let anything intervene, art portfolios, still-lifes, the general 'no son,don't spike up your hopes'. Money comes and goes with my family I know sometimes its hard to wake up to no food in our home, bread and butter come scarce, for nineteen years it's been this hard, whats that? New home? Just move in tomorrow. But I won't let this get in the way, I'm motivated, this is what makes me see the light of day, my passion, knowing someday I will make a change with something as humble as character animation.
