Today I watched this interview^[1] from Patrick Smith^[2]. It was very good, especially when he talks about his ideas process and how he approaches projects in small steps. I will leave three of his shorts down here:

Masks (2010)

PITTARI (2017)

Handshake (2004)

Himself

Today I also realized that I won't be able to send my application this year to The Animation Workshop^[3], which was in my plans. It makes me a little sad, but who said I was going in first? That means I'll have more time to study, get better and maybe create something to send to a festival.

For now I am going to read the book The Fundamentals of Animation^[4] thoroughly, so far it speaks very well about the whole mindset and process without being protocolized.
