I remember instructor from an animation course I took at school told us animation is just illusion. Growing up watching a lot of Disney movies and Japanese anime, I am always amazed how going through pages of still images would give us so much connections with the stories and characters. That made us love them so much and would laugh and cried with them.

Whether or not they are just illusions, I believe the feelings they make people get are real. Bringing motions to the illustration that I have created has became one of my favorite forms of creation as it carries emotions from it dynamics and it is always fun make it move.
