Description:


    This animation of a self-caricature asks students to create an animation that answers the question: “Why do they want to be animators?” It illustrates a few of the many and varied possi-bilities inherent in answering this question. The students were encouraged to use any technique or special effect they could create to solve the problem.

    Bucky the Floursack and Marcel the Mime (two characters from earlier sample animations) make appearances, with Marcel getting by far the worse treatment of the two.
