Guess who… me! Today I just want to share one of the experiences that happened today.
We had the opportunity to meet up with a few students from Taipei National University of the Arts and got the chance to tour around their campus.
During the tour, we were able to view some of the art exhibits that showcased existing works by the students, and let me tell you, it was phenomenal.
Not to mention, one of the pieces was a painting animation, and I got to see both the individual drawing frames that made up the animation as well as the full animation itself.
Seeing this really made me think back to the days of old-school cartoons, like Mickey Mouse and Tom and Jerry, that were made using traditional animation techniques, where every single frame was hand-drawn
Watching this student-created animation come to life gave me serious childhood flashbacks, and I couldn’t help but feel a connection. It really resonated with me.
All this to say, it was a very enriching experience, especially getting to see what college life is like in Taiwan compared to what I know back home in the U.S.
With that, I’ll call it a wrap. Bye!
