Final (late!) Entry

Here is my ANIMATION INSPIRATION~



Eva showed this to us in class. I am not necessarily a huge fan of the style of art, but the style of storytelling and characters slay me, not to mention the simple animation. I am also enthralled by the world it takes place in...buildings stacked upon buildings, which are also relatively simple in design, airships in the sky...

An overall rad animation. I also like the fact that its origin is Mexico, a place not known to me for its animation, and is almost like saying, Hey, this is me, Animation, and I am alive and thriving in Mexico.
