During one of our twilight sessions we watched "Made You Look" which is a documentary which introduces us to a number of different artists who talk about what their area of expertise. They ranged from young, old, male, female, some individual and some partners in crime. All of these artists worked with different media, some worked primarily with 2D such as paper cut outs, screen printing and digital.
What did I like about this?
I really liked the fact that every artist in this film was completely different, and some of them had really obscure professions , some of which I had never really thought about, for example there was a "Professional Doodler" who came across this by accident one day when working behind a bar.
What didn't I like?
Although I found this film interesting, it was a shame that there was not much relation to the field of animation.
What have I taken away from this?
The main thing I have taken away of this is the fact that digital art, should in no way be seen as a replacement for the more traditional techniques, and that having the ability to create digital art alone does not make somebody a better artist, there should be an equal respect for all forms of art.
