Realism

The content of this lesson was about realism, or in another words, a critic to the relation between  realism and contemporary animation.

Ivan show us a nice photo of the National Geographic magazine, I still buy this magazine, of Giza Pyramids, he said sarcastly “Yeah, it is wonderful  but it is not real”, yeah definitely there is a great distance between each pyramid but National Geographic designers where more “intelligent” and “brave” than ancient Egyptians and they put the pyramids in the “correct” position for the photo.

 Ivan asked us about the difference between the old version of King Kong and the modern one of Peter Jackson, actually I’m a big fan of the Peter Jackson’s version,  is amazing but  surprisingly most people  look it as a waste of money. 

Personally I think we just look at some parts of realism,   the merchantable ones, more or less the same happen in the fantasy and unrealistic projects and work of digital animation, we need to be more open. Otherwise it will be very boring...
