Wow you can see his distinctive style in Megara and Jane.
*_As an aspiring animator at college, this guy deserved to have his own animated series on Disney Channel._*
*so does the woman....*
@@Raine_Raine not to discredit her, but she has much less experience than he does. Gender aside, the guy has been in the industry for a long time, whereas she hasn't.
@@zaingova9140 i know that, and i understand it. But he showed his talents, from how long his been there. She hasn't yet, at least not ALL of it, she also deserves (as do the male) to show off their talent and show what they can do.
@@Raine_Raine they could do segments comparing the old style and the new styles (pencil & paper compared to tablets)
Started at ages 8 and 10 respectfully.. yeah they put their 10000 hours in!
I started at seven!
Began drawing at around 6, it’s the only thing I want to do with my life.
I started at 8!
Great video, Buzzfeed. Please bring more light to people behind the scenes of animation industries! I can relate so much to this because I am a part of an anime studio and I have been involved in animating in-betweens for animes like Attack on Titan, Pokemon and other major titles that people might have heard of. There is something rewarding seeing your drawn frames come to life. However I also envision a studio of my own. Gaining experiences and seeing how an animation studio have certainly helped me to visualize the dream.
Rai Durahim That’s amazing! I’m going to study animation at university at the end of this year - do you have any tips on how to get/be prepared for the workload and challenges ahead? Xx
This man drew my childhood animated characters. I grew up with Land Before Time, Hercules and Treasure Planet
He did a 50 page comic book??? Well shoot, I can’t even do a 1 page flipbook
Wait if its one page its not a flip book XD
Ryan Nixon you can flip it over
Lol
My beginnings as an artist were just like them: creating from a young age. I wanted to be an animator up until high school but did not end up furthering my education in art because my mom hated the idea and refused to send me to art school. I couldn't afford school on my own, so I had to give up my dream. It worked out in the end, though. I still love drawing, but I've found my true calling is in education. :) for all of you aspiring animators: KEEP GOING!
VermilionLotus can I ask how it worked out for you? Did you end up going back to school?
Hi, I have the same question as the reply above mine! Could you please answer? Thanks! I'm genuinely curious about it.
You still dream of doing animations or art? You should commission yourself? I have written stories but no artist
They dont just make animations they make dreams...
Animator make dreams 😊
Indeed 💜
Thanks I appreciate that lol
My great grampa went to school with Walt Disney.
that's cool. what about his brother
K
@@Chopperdragon39 yeah idk
Thats what my great grandma told me that she still alive.
Angel Jourdan wowoowowooww thats amazing
I LOVE THE LAND BEFORE TIME! And now so does my 6 year old, thats so cool he animated it!
so this dude single-handedly animated every woman cartoon I've ever been attracted to you since I was like 8! Freaking Meg, Jane and the lady from Atlantis are you kidding me?!? Praize
on a movie called hercules. as if we wouldn't know which movie he's taling about haha
Perfectly timed video once again
I’ve been searching animation non stop
I have a deep passion for art and animation, always have since i was little. A while ago I kinda gave up on pursuing it as a job because I grew up with a family that somewhat discouraged an artistic job choice because of the chances of success and employment in such a medium. But, Into The Spiderverse actually recaptured this essence in me. While i am in college, as a hobby I want to study and even create my own animations. Thank you for this video!
Same i also have a family that does not really support artistic careers but I'm doing my final year in high school. Have any advice for me??

2D needs to come back
Yeah, 2D just hit different
Wait a few years. It's coming back. Someone I know is working on her new movie business.
watch anime Its has like 99% 2d animation
I really thought this video said “a professional amateur” and I honestly related so much
That's career goals 😂
As an animator this really inspires me to keep looking for this dream and do my best :)
what're u doing here xd
Good luck!
Same broski
same and good luck!
"Animation as an industry, you never quite feel like you make it because there's always something new and challenging right around the corner." < --- almost any job BUT that's a good thing. If it's not a challenge - you'll never grow
I love how he says "the movie called" so humble
When you look at the hands of Captain Amelia, Jane, and Megara, you can REALLY tell that he drew them!
my dream is work at Disney. Thank you for the video
This guy is so incredibly humble
I want to become an Imagineer, always loved the design and architecture of all the attractions at all the Disney parks (especially Shanghai and WDW)
That’s lovely!! World needs more creativity :,)! Wishing you the best of luck!
What a great dream! Just dream bigger!!! Because I wanted to be a cartoonist.
Wow! So do I!
Omg whats an imagineer?
OMG this guy helped worked on the Land Before Time, that's my childhood right there.
Always great to see the people behind the animation and behind the scenes ☺️
We’re all here because what they’re doing is what we want to do, or wanted to do and no one really encouraged us to go for our dreams. As sad as that is we can not let other people’s fear of the unknown stop us from a beautiful, growing, always improving industry!! I hope we all make it in some shape or form, so we can have something we proudly write home about later in life. 😌❤
Wow. Never realized how Meg from Hercules and Jane from Tarzan are literally the exact same.
I worked with Ken Duncan when he was at Disney. He’s a brilliant animator, an excellent draftsman and a fine human being. His Duncan Studios does top notch work.
Stephanie mentioned David Pruiksma as her professor and mentor. He’s another excellent animator and Disney veteran and wonderful instructor.
I’m a Disney veteran and currently teach at LCAD where Stephanie studied. Currently most of my students are NOT males (though many are). The industry has been changing and is showing much diversity in animators. It’s about time.
I loved his message , and her determination. Thank you for this video.
the way i GASPED when he mentioned THE captain amelia from treasure planet..
I want to learn animation so bad to do work like these two. So cool and inspiring
This probably will be buried and unseen, but it would be interesting to see Disney animators or any veteran animators in the industry react to Warrior Cat MAPs. I've heard that some people believe that 2d animation isn't as popular as 3d animation any more and that people don't want to spend time on it as much. I would love to see how they'd react to the amazing animations that people from all around the world come together and produce for free. There are some amazing animators out there and it would be amazing to see a veteran animator give their feedback on the community.
I just started thinking about being a animator. I just started drawing for the first time in years. But I love the medium, and love creating things other people enjoy.
I want to know if animators can start from scratch in there twenties.
I'm 17 as of writing this, and I want to be a cartoonist. (Maybe, I'll try my hand once I can improve my art though).
I suppose it's possible, as nothing's impossible unless we really want to pursue that thing.
Good luck to you all guys, it'll be a long road, but I know we'll make it there.
No reason why it's not possible
its been a goal of mine to work as an artist under Disney or Dreamworks since I was little, but I've been so discouraged and telling myself I'm not going to be that good of an artist to make it to such huge companies, despite studying it in college and doing great according to my professors. this video as well as videos from Laura price have been so inspirational and motivating for me to chase after my dreams until I catch them
Same here
how is it going now because im always doing something that has to do with art and whenever i think about a job like this i dont see it happening
I love Laura as well! She’s amazing
This video inspired me so much and seeing this made me feel more confident about going for animation
It really is people like these that inspire me to become an animator
I feel inspired, the message in this video resonate so much with my personal goal. > w
My dream is to become a Disney animator so thank you for this video!!
FlipptyHoppity Get off my property. Same here man
FlipptyHoppity Get off my property. Same hope to see you there one day
Meg is my favourite princess of all time! Thank you my dude
This is very inspiring for us animators! 💙
Animations is what got me to draw at age 6 six and now I’m practicing poses and structure for characters that I imagined to further improve my skills and learn more about animation
My son who has a hard time focusing at times started drawing and doing comics and animation around 7. He can sit completely focused drawing for 6 or more hours at a time. He says he wants to be an animator but I honestly have no idea how to direct him in the right direction. This was a great video
Omg the land before time was my fav childhood movie!!! Now it’s also my nephew’s favorite movie! 😍😭
I am going in college for animation. I'm so excited.
How'd it go, you in the industry yet?
It would be awesome if they were the artists teaching us how to draw at the Animation Academy inside California Adventures 😍
People wanted a video of this😍😍😍😍
LAND BEFORE TIME YESSS
This is so good to shed a spotlight on animators this is low key the most stressful job. So glad I skipped art school
Why? Art is fun
Omg Hercules is my favorite movie!!! This guy is amazing!!
So he is one the reasons why my childhood is awesome 😎 thank you sir
Good on ya Buzzfeed for not even mentioning their names in the title and description 😒
Ohhh the land before time 🥰🥰🥰 I’m gonna cry 😢 that was one of my favs when I was younger Awwwww and he did all of those things like Jane 😁🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 awww I’m gonna cryyyyyyyyyyyyyyand I don’t know whyyyyyyyyyy
So cool you are working on new projects with female leads! Thank you!!!
This two deserve much respect ❤️👩👴
Needed this, my dream
This was so inspiring
This is my literally my dream 🥺 but I’m 21 and feel so behind, like how do I even start?
I really want to be an animator so this is really nice to see this
Pixar is my dream career!
I saw the title of this video and I was so happy this is want I want to do
*Oh boy,time to go see people who are hands down better than me and me being an amateur in the whole writing and drawing business*
I'm graduating from my degree in Animation soon and this video is very inspiring. Something I need to keep in mind as I go about the industry.
Did you get a mentor? I'm currently an animation student but I don't have a mentor or even thought of getting one before. I'm not sure how that would work. Let me know!
@@Divio18 I always go to my animation professors since they have been really good mentors to me all throughout my stay at uni. Our professors are definitely going to be our first mentors so its best that you try and get to know them well.
@@gingerfloofy Thanks for the advices!!
I go to LCAD!!
Started drawing around age 3, I can see improvement and I really want to be an animator though! 😋✌
When I was 5 my inspiration to draw increased then my 2d career went nice...then when I was 12 iam in to 3d digital things ....now iam 15 ...
Welp..I hope i will become animator
I am a small youtube storytime animator and i wanna be like you guys this feels so inspiring
Everyone started drawing since like 5/6 and it makes me feel shiet man, i drew here and there but being 20 and like not being able to draw amazingly makes me feel like i wont be able to be animator :c
Currently an animation student...really inspired me ..thanks for posting...i would love this to be a series
I'm into Animation as well, I want to apply for calarts
I want to be an animator but I don't know where to start or what program to use
so I'd be really grateful if you guys gave me some advices
if you want to animate traditionally you could always get a pencil and paper. but programs to do it digitally could be (free programs) firealpaca, opentoonz, pencil 2D or (paid programs) toon boom and adobe animate,. Mobile apps could be flipaclip and roughanimator. To get into 3d animating i recommend SFM to begin with. for the basics there are tons of free tutorials and books such as "the animator's survival guide".
I really want to make my own disney show
I love this *^*
Omg I love this.
It's my dream to be an animator at disney and I am sure I'll be one day.
Buzzfeed: I animate
Try guys: IM GAY!!!
Which we already knew about Eugene.
Glad he got to flex his director's muscles though, otherwise he'd be stagnating there.
Eugene’s. Video. Was. AMAZING! Breaking the walls and coming out in such an artful and beautiful way! It fills me with hope and joy! Watches this video and realizes that there is a chance I might be ostracized in the animation industry for being a woman... (cough cough* I’m going to art school for animation...) These problems are never fixed... 50 years later it is still a problem 😑
I always dream about being an animator
I wish I kept up with my drawings and art ... Plus this is amazing my 10 month old loves Tarzan and Jane specifically. 💕😍
Which is the best laptop for animation ?
Can you become a successful animator without studying at university these days? Feeling a little lost at the moment.
Working with Duncan studio will always be one of the highlights of my career, the closest thing to work with the old man himself.
Cool
My dream job😍😍
Start small and make way to way to the top
Can you do this for filmmakers
my dream job
What’s a good college for animation that’s not crazy expensive
A lot of my professors were ex-Disney, and they always told us to not go to Disney lol
Why?
Please interview Aaron Blaise!
I didn't know there was a Mary Poppins returns movie?! I only knew there was a remake
The movie that came out last year wasn't a remake, it was called Mary Poppins Returns. :)
@@laurahauschildt1708 oh! Haha thanks! I wasn't able to watch it when it came out I was too busy with college so I thought it was a remake... (I'm studying Animation which is why I watched this video! XD)
This definitely inspires me to find an animation program so I can animate my character in my youtube videos!
The art form is disney in all time and history realistic cartoon like newer styles and a powerful universe imitating life
I love Treasure Planet!
what's the music 0.00-0.16?
What it wants to work in disney
I have a SERIOUS question for all of us(Animator)
We all heard that we dont need a degree to work at Big Company(Dreamworks,Pixar )
But the PROBLEM here is this
I just google Dreanworks intership and their requirement is that I have to pursue or graduate a Degree???
What is your opinion about this ???
I really confused T^T
Yea
Omg omg omg I want to be an animator so bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want them to explain who and why they were told to draw so many subliminal messages in Disney's animation, it's always dirty stuff.
I ❤️ u Stephanie Alexander
I want to become an animator but there arent many animator jobs where I live
Flamywolfie that’s why she moved to LA 🤷♂️
Move then. Sacrifices may be necessary.
@@kevinzhang6623 That was four years ago haha. I still have a hidden desire for animation but reality has hit and I will probably pursue a career in architecture.
“I read about a guy called walt Disney” Walt Disney was a huge deal before he was even born Snow White came out in the 30s and was a massive hit world wide and he’s trying to say he didn’t know about him until he read a book about him
