How does one get into the animation field?
I want to be able to create my own cartoons eventually. I love the unique worlds such as Cowboy Bebop, or Aeon Flux… and I want to know how to get a job like that.


I graduated from art college several years ago. AAC in the bayarea. If you don’t know anyone who’s in animation field, you can try to present your idea and art work to the teachers in art school. Most of teachers in my school are not professional educator but professional artist. Such as most teachers who is teaching animation may from the big film company. Some of them fly from LA to give us class everyweek.
I thought you may start from their if you go some good stuff. But if you really got some great stuff, be careful with who you deal with. We had sign the contract that all our works belong to school when we were. I have known there some teachers keep student’s idea become their own…

Look into getting enrolled in a graphic arts class in a college or school, and take it from there.
Harley | Mar 24, 2006


Do a course in Animation…. If your drawing is very very good, then you stand a good chance.
nice_libra_guy | Mar 24, 2006


If you have the love and obviously talent you can!
Good animation takes countless time and effort.
Be consistant do not drift in to other things in that area
You can professionalize abything if you just keep on keeping on!

Goodluck, animation is good fun work
bringin life to a character is certainlya great feeling of giving birth.

Spiders in the car! How do you keep them out (like 4ever)?
Really cannot handle spiders getting inside the car. Is there any safe deterrant I can use to keep them out. Should I spray the inside of the car with surface spray too - I usually use this around doors to keep them out of the house. We have some very LARGE huntsman spiders around here and no hungry geckos live here either. The redbacks are usually placid spiders and they keep to the woodpiles not inside homes or cars. I even have earwigs inside the (cemented) letterbox! I use surface spray in there or they tend to munch on the letters - I hate earwigs with a vengeance.

Don’t usually mind spiders and snakes BUT I don’t want them in my space!

Always place my gardening gloves in a zip up bag or tin to keep them free from bugs.


Don’t park near trees. I find that I have had more occurrences of spiders entering my vehicle when I am parking near trees.

COCHI LOCO | Feb 09, 2010


i HATE when spiders catch a ride in my car! i have not been able to find any way to keep them out because they can find so many ways to get in. i hope someone has an idea that can help us both!
candyface | Feb 09, 2010


Can’t say that I’ve ever had a spider in the car. I would really hate that!! And snakes - even worse!
I have had flies though, which are infuriating as they buzz around and can distract one from driving. I stop if possible and get them out.
Driving in the UKs cooler climate, windows are kept (mostly) shut for quite a few months, so less opportunity for insects to enter the car. many are holed up in some cavity to keep out of the cold. Today is about 4C with snow flurries, especially in SE England. Brrr!!

Baader Meinhof Complex, The (2008)

IMDB rating: 7.40

Plot: Germany in the 1970s: Murderous bomb attacks, the threat of terrorism and the fear of the enemy inside are rocking the very foundations of the yet fragile German democracy. The radicalised children of the Nazi generation lead by Andreas Baader, Ulrike Meinhof and Gudrun Ensslin are fighting a violent war against what they perceive as the new face of fascism: American imperialism supported by the German establishment, many of whom have a Nazi past. Their aim is to create a more human society but by employing inhuman means they not only spread terror and bloodshed, they also lose their own humanity. The man who understands them is also their hunter: the head of the German police force Horst Herold. And while he succeeds in his relentless pursuit of the young terrorists, he knows he’s only dealing with the tip of the iceberg.

The Yes Men Fix the World

The Yes Men Fix the World
The Yes Men Fix the World (2009)

IMDB rating: 7.60

Plot: Troublemaking duo Andy Bichlbaum and Mike Bonanno, posing as their industrious alter-egos, expose the people profiting from Hurricane Katrina, the faces behind the environmental disaster in Bhopal, and other shocking events.

Directors: Bichlbaum Andy

Actors: Watts Reggie,Bonanno Mike,Documentary,

What do you think of this prologue?
Eons ago, a female known as the Goddess of Life, lived in the worlds. Rumours of her death was spread while others denied her death. She was life itself, and that could not die. No-one knew the whole story though, and one must hear everyone’s story, to hear her story.

The very core of life had come close to falling due to her death. Without the Goddess, there was no life. Without life, there was no existence. But things had to go on. Everything had to live. To continue on without knowing the purpose why, because that was how life was.

That was how life played out.

That’s how the Gods played.

The Elemental Gods were the guardians of the Goddess of Life, but they failed her. In failing so to protect her, they themselves, had made her meet her demise. They were Gods, but that did not mean they had the knowledge of being one.

In this existence every God had a guardian, even those who were the guardians of the Goddess. Their guardians had foreseen this and they had kept it concealed from the eyes of the Elemental Gods.

Life repeats itself.

It cycles.

It plays over and over with no purpose.

Until the present day, where all would be decided, the weight of the worlds and existence itself, depended… on five Syberians.

The Syberians had witnessed the death of the goddess, and after seeing such bloodshed their minds had withered to killing beasts. They had no emotions, set for the one emotion that caused more blood to be shed.

Hate.

Like life does, ‘hate’ plays with the mind and the lives of everyone with no remorse, it was not meant to feel anything, but it is alive and running free in those who let it.

Elruga, is a world known to carry Syberians. It is a race not known to man, for man know of no life anywhere but Earth.

They were more superior than the race of men. They were stronger, faster and more intelligent. They knew how to take care of their world, but like mankind… They were destroying the very heart of it without knowing…

Syberians were heartless creatures. They appeared in the shape of a human and were very spiritual, but they lacked, above anything else, the emotion of caring. They knew not of love. Or of fear when the thought of losing someone came. They did not care. They did not see.

Elruga knew this, it had a heart like Earth. Some would say, that Earth, despite being defiled by the likes of humankind, was Elruga’s sister, but those ’some’ were now the fallen, walking among the dead.

Syberians thought no more of humans, than humans did of bugs. They saw them as weak, fragile-minded beings that were more useful dead than alive when in truth… they were at the same level. Humans, if it was one thing they were known for… it was their emotions. They could hate, yes. But they could also love. They could feel sorrow for one another, and cry for those they lost. They could live a life of happiness with love, and overcome the obstacles that blockaded their lives… That was what Elruga knew, and Siberians did not.

Like mankind, Syberians killed each other. Fought over revenge and what they thought was right, and fair. So much pain had come, and so much sorrow. No-one ever learned, no-one ever heard the cries of the forest.

No-one saw the tears of the world.

It was a hoarse voice, but it was time for all of this to end.

Elruga did not wish to see the ending of its children, like Earth did not for the humans that resided on it… Landing it all on one hope, when Earth had only enough strength to do Elruga one last favour… It took the children of Elruga into its own hands…

A tale that was forgotten, does not mean its ending had come… instead, restart. Make a new beginning flourished with words of fragrance on the page… Thou does not need to burn a sad ending, but fix it. Bury it instead of perishing it, and take it out only when one is ready, when every player least expects it…

The game of chess begins once more…


Ooh. i like it. it reminds me of a story i was writing a couple of years back- thanks for the memories!
i like you’re writer’s voice, you really have talent there, because now i want to know what the rest of it’s about, you know? POST MORE plz for me!

how is the movie shawshank redemption realated to conflict theory?


Perhaps due to the conflict regarding Tim Robbin’s character as to whether or not he really is innocent or guilty. It shows that justice is not always served in the courtroom. ——————–
