My brother loves animation???!


Question: My brother loves animation!?!?!?
My brother(younger than 10) is really interested in animation, and would like to know if there are any camps that he could go to(around South-West Missouri)!. also if you know any sites he could go to, so he can learn more info and(or) do something involving animation that would help!. Thanks!Www@Enter-QA@Com


Answers:
I know you said he's not interested in drawing, but he must understand that in order to animate, he needs to learn the basic skills which include drawing!. Your brother's a little young, but when he gets a little older (around 14-18) and he's still interested, try going to pre-college programs!. I personally don't know any around your area, but you should try out schools like SVA (in NY), Academy of Art (Cali), Art Institute of California (San Fran)!. Yep, they're a bit far, but they will offer the best in animation especially the Calfornia ones!.

I would recommend to your brother to watch any different kinds of animations!. Nowadays, many people only see anime or CGI as the sole source of animation, which is untrue!. Not that anime or CGI are necessarily bad things, but most animation studios look down upon people who don't have a broad interest!.

If you want your brother to get a headstart on animation, he should try out Flash (around $200-300) or a free trial for thirty days!. also important programs to know later are Maya (3D), Photoshop, and Final Cut Pro (taking drawings, filming, and then putting it all together into a movie)!.

The best thing is to take a class!. The internet can't do as much as a reliable animator/professor!.

But for now, I think he should concentrate onto drawing first!. He doesn't have to draw realistically, but he should have characters and stories!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Hey
Sorry, but I don't think there is any clubs like that around!. However, if your brother is really interested, you could suggest that he starts his own club and tries to get his friends from school to join!.

To encourage his hobbie, you could buy him comics or manga books (though they may be a bit complex for him considering his age)

also, I'm not sure if i've understood your question properly!. Do you mean he likes reading comic type animation, or he is into film animation!?

If the second, you could suggest he sets up a youtube account and uses Windows Movie Maker to create Stop Motion Films or just little projects like this!.

Hope this helps and if you want any further explanation feel free to message :D

Good luck!!

Oh, there is so much, just everywhere around America, When he gets a little older, Maybe let him take a trip to one of the Northern art Colleges, Alot of the places like Kendall and the Chicago art institute have exibits, they're really interesting, and alot of the time, you can get a free tour!. Another fun thing, would be to set your brother up with a Deviantart account,

Deviantart!.com


There are alot of novice artists on Deviantart, and It's a place where people of all art levels can talk art and ect!.!.!.

I wish your brother all the luck in the world, as I am in the same field :)Www@Enter-QA@Com
