Animators discuss creative projects
The Tartan Online: Animators Erin Cosgrove, Tom Sito, and Chris Sullivan shared their wisdom in a discussion panel held in Giant Eagle Auditorium last Monday. The animators drew an audience of students from Carnegie Mellon and the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, along with other members of the Pittsburgh community. The panel, second in a two-part animation symposium that took place last weekend, was part of the Carnegie Mellon Media Initiative. Established by College of Fine Arts professor Jim Duesing and English professor Kathy Newman, the Media Initiative encourages the use of new and social media.

Animation has always sort of fascinated me. It, like comics, is cool because you can stylize literally everything you show the audience, so that what you are saying can be completely conveyed. One thing that stuck out in this article was talking about animation being used to prototype, which got me thinking, what if our process was entirely different. What if instead of having an extended rehearsal process, we had directors that would animate exactly what they wanted and then we would get actors that could mimic that. Just some food for thought.
