Different Views

It's always good to see everything from a different viewpoint.  In the past, men have dominated many parts of life.  This included art, inventions, politics, religion, and so much more.  But these are the things women dominated: children's behavior, life at home, taking care of the family (mostly cooking and cleaning), and raising children into responsible adults.  But men did partake in raising children most of the time, if they weren't at work or at war.

But today, it's so different.  Men can be the dad at home.  And women can go to work.  Women have influenced to change the outside view of art, inventions, politics, religion, and more.  Taking those things and showing to everyone what they see.

In class, Professor Leeper mentioned about a lady who didn't like certain animation because they weren't smooth and colorful like animation was suppose to be.  At least not to her.  But being open to other ideas and styles make a great artist.

Being open in a way that you're not a mindless consumer taking every idea there is.  Taking ideas and looking at it from an outside view, asking "will this make it any better?"  If yes, take it.  If not, don't just reject it.  Keep it for another idea.  Not all solutions fix the problem.

That's what I gathered from today's class.

This is why we are animators.........
