    Still something young and springy in this voice and eyes. I think great animators like Goldberg are still connected to the source of life. By observing it, enjoying it and letting it flow through them. The bringing to life of ideas, characters and movement.

    Hey, I have a question. I don´t have Canadian friends, so I'll ask here so anyone of you can answer: What's the equivalent for a master's degree in Canada. I can't find masters but a lof of Diplomas, advanced diplomas and certificates. What are those? and which one is the equivalent to a master's degree.

    Is this a joke? Real paint on glass animation by people who can draw/paint and have something to say can be seen on the web, look up Alexandre Petrov’s - The Making Of “The Old Man & the Sea” and Martine Chartrand’s “Black Soul”.

    • @Canadiananimationblog-Profile
      @Canadiananimationblog-Profile Před 3 lety

      Jean, this is a tutorial for explaining the basics of the technique for beginners and Patrick did an excellent job of explaining them. And for the record, Patrick is a talented artist and has exceptional skill at his techniques - don't take my word for it though - refer to his international accolades and screenings. "The Old Man & the Sea" and "Black Soul" are wonderful films, but using them as examples may be a bit intimidating - because how could you do it properly without another 10 tutorials on brush work, colour, tone, and so on? Anyone that tried a tutorial like that would likely be disappointed attempting to replicate those results because it would be too difficult to explain to an artist that didn't have a decade or more of experience. So no, this is not a joke, just an efficient video for freely sharing information to other artists and interested parties. By looking at your work, I expect you'd actually probably get along really well with Patrick, say hi to him if you see him at a film festival when they start back up.

    • @Shoulderpads-mcgee
      @Shoulderpads-mcgee Před 3 lety

      You’re being extremely rude Jean. Regardless of if this was Patrick’s best work, someone’s effort to animate even for something simple is not a joke. Do you go around asking everyone who makes art that isn’t up to your standard if they’re joking? There is no “real” paint on glass just as there is no “real” art. And as the poster said, this is a tutorial.

    I think the internal response of “oh yeah?” When faced with people denying you is where all true greatness comes from. Determination with a pinch of saltiness, maybe a dash of spite, a “watch me” “fuck it” attitude.

    This guy reminds me of bob ross, letting things happen and go with the flow with oil on glass can be so introspective and also joyful. Remaining a healthy posture seems to be tricky tho ;) i should put my light table on a paintingtableau or something. Thanks also for the q-tip advice! Cheers

    • @Sharperthanu1
      @Sharperthanu1 Před 11 měsíci

      Since he can use oil on glass then I can use oil on laser foil and/ or holographic foil.They both are non absorbent surfaces.However I prefer just oil pastels to oil paint.
