The art of storytelling | Pixar in a Box | Partner content | Khan Academy

mylydy:

Hi, so a lot (like a LOT) of people ask me how to become a storyartist, how to introduce themself into art of animation and animation industry, how to tell stories in general. I don’t have a proper and quick answer for that but I wanted to share this link who is for me the best link ever all time for anybody who is interested in the art of storytelling in general, from comicbook, until film and cinema, writting, storyboarding of course.

It is FREE, and made very very generously by all the story departement which is the best in the world plus some of the Pixar directors themself (!). Don’t misjudge it : It is not because it seems simple and because it s free that it is useless or less effective than an expensive class .  On the contrary it is MUCH BETTER than any expensive school in the world.

Even if you are an advanced art student or a pro you should watch it and do the training class as soon as possible on your spare time. These exercises are also very similar to the Pixar summer internship training. so it s really not bullshit. These video are accessibles from beginner but also great for professional even myself.

So please share this link as much as possible, seriously and make these exercises, train when you can, whatever age you are, whatever is your favorite medium, movie, comicbook, writing…  HAVE FUN AND LOVE STORIES  and thanks a lot Pixar story department, because they are awesome :)

FR (English version bellow) :

Dessin en deux versions (avant/après polychromos) inspiré du poème suivant :

LE DORMEUR DU VAL

C’est un trou de verdure, où chante une rivière
Accrochant follement aux herbes des haillons
D’argent; où le soleil, de la montagne fière,
Luit: c’est un petit val qui mousse de rayons.

Un soldat jeune, bouche ouverte, tête nue,
Et la nuque baignant dans le frais cresson bleu,
Dort; il est étendu dans l’herbe, sous la nue,
Pâle dans son lit vert où la lumière pleut.

Les pieds dans les glaïeuls, il dort. Souriant comme
Sourirait un enfant malade, il fait un somme:
Nature, berce-le chaudement: il a froid.

Les parfums ne font pas frissonner sa narine;
Il dort dans le soleil, la main sur sa poitrine,
Tranquille. Il a deux trous rouges au côté droit.

Arthur Rimbaud

Je ne sais pas ce que Pikachu fait dans la scène haha

EN :

Drawnig in two versions ( before / after polychromos ) inspired by this french Poem :

THE SLIPPER IN THE VALLEY

It is a green hollow where a stream gurgles,
Crazily catching silver rags of itself on the grasses;
Where the sun shines from the proud mountain:
It is a little valley bubbling over with light.

A young soldier, open-mouthed, bare-headed,
With the nape of his neck bathed in cool blue cresses,
Sleeps; he is stretched out on the grass, under the sky,
Pale on his green bed where the light falls like rain.

His feet in the yellow flags, he lies sleeping. Smiling as
A sick child might smile, he is having a nap:
Cradle him warmly, Nature: he is cold.

No odour makes his nostrils quiver;
He sleeps in the sun, his hand on his breast
At peace. There are two red holes in his right side.

Arthur Rimbaud

I cant answer why Pikachu is here haha
