Letters?! But it's only February!

In the past week, information has been sifting in...

One current CharAnim student at CalArts mentioned that her teacher left during class to go review portfolios, and unconfirmed reports suggest that someone has already been accepted into the program, this just the end of February. It's not even March yet!

Is it possible their job was not as difficult this year? I may be receiving a letter sooner rather than later... I don't know if I was prepped to find out this early!

More quotes

"I prefer motion to be stylized, because the essential part of the art is movement. You've heard the saying that great animation is not drawings that move, but movement that is drawn. What you are doing is creating drawings that, when looked at individually, may look bad or illogical. But when looked at all at once, they are magical. That's our art form. That's what we do that nobody else can."

Someone asked that I post this. Here it is.

Final Portfolio for CalArts

Here we go guys. My portfolio (in order) as presented.

*throws confetti in the air*

Usps.com confirms: My portfolio was delivered yesterday at CalArts!

All is done. The application is in, the fee is paid, the portfolio is shipped. I'm honestly glad it is over. Now I can do OTHER things. I'll still keep up with my art, but I just want to do it for fun for a little while, instead of a forced march.

Now I need to figure out what other schools I'd like to apply to. Deadlines will be approaching soon, but for now, I am enjoying my weekend.

Illusion of SLEEP!

With the exception of it having a postage sticker on it and filling out the application- I AM DONE!

The rejoicing may begin! Portfolio is on it's way!
