THE DAVID OREILLY ANIMATION INTERNET WEBSITE — Basic Animation Aesthetics

THE DAVID OREILLY ANIMATION INTERNET WEBSITE — Basic Animation Aesthetics: "The importance of animation aesthetics is such a subtle yet vitally important one. It might seem superficial to discuss these things, especially because cinema is so much more to do with content and story than a pure aesthetic experience, but nonetheless the visual nature of animation calls for debate on the subject. There is a continuous raft of animation, both commercial and independent, which looks the same, and I don’t believe it has to be so. The more we think about the subject the more playful and interesting computer animation becomes, the medium feels to me like a recently opened Pandora’s box which is still being examined, understood and tamed.
