Feel my passion!! It glows....
Have you ever felt really passionate about something? A hobby, interesting, something you enjoy very much.
Have you felt like no one really understands it?
Cuz that is how I currently feel.
I won't lie, I am crazy about animation. When I watching something now I look at technique, I sit there and comtemplate how they did that, how long it took, where the idea came from. I picture the people involved and each of their jobs...
I was just at: http://www.animationmentor.com/index.cfm
and I watched their studen showcase. Yeah, its not people, there have been better animations, but when I watch they I get excited. I feel inspired. I want to go and do something amazing.
I want to share that feeling with the world, I want then to see it and appreciate it and the people who sat there for hours making it.
But when I do...I don't think they feel like I do about it.
I get a, "yeah, thats really cool."
"Oh wow, that's amazing."
and then they move on.
Quite quickly most cases.
I don't know, maybe i am just looking too deeply into this. Or overlooking their appreciation for it.
Or maybe I am just a big nerd who really wants to go into animation and do amazing things like in the latest video games, or really realistic like animation is getting nowadays.
but I don't really see myself ever amounting to anything too great.
Which is really sad and depressing.
But it is like a poster I saw once; it had a picture of McDonald fries on it.
Across the top it said, "Success"
and then under the picture it said, "Not everyone can be an astronaut"
Which is true.
but I hope that I don't end up THAT low on the list.
