if you want to draw cartoons you should study life drawing and landscapes…: Keep it simple. A lot of animation is problem solving, whether it’s a complicated drawing, a difficult movement or a challenging camera angle. Rather than losing oneself in minute details, more often than not, asking oneself how can I communicate the story as simply & effectively as possible, leads to a painless solution. At those times when I struggle with a sequence of drawings, rather than staying late and obsessing over them, I simply stop, forget about them overnight and on reflection and with a clear mind the next morning, the solution is often obvious.
