Hi, my name is Becca. I am an animation major, and hope to work for Disney one day. I am from New Albany, Indiana, which is right near Louisville, Kentucky. I love watching classic Disney movies more than anything, I enjoy the hand drawn animation, and appreciate the time and effort that goes into it. This past summer, I went to Disney World, and ended up getting an email address to one of the Disney artists, that creates some of the paintings in the art galleries. After talking to him, he has encouraged me to strive towards my dream of working at Disney. Okay, that is enough about my love for Disney.
I really enjoyed the reading "C.S. Lewis: On Stories", this evening. I felt like what C.S. Lewis had to say was extremely powerful, and quite interesting. I thought it was interesting to see that characters portrayed as animals in story books, or often not able to be humanized as a child or adult, judging by their mannerisms. Alot of times, these characters have no responsibilities, like jobs, or bills, however, they are still able to drive cars, and such.
I like that C.S. Lewis believes that no matter your age, you should still have the imagination of a child. After all, what would digital media arts look like, if we all grew too old for such a wonderful imagination? I think it would be bland and not nearly as entertaining, if there weren't imaginative characters being created, but instead only typical human characters.
