The first animation I watched was the South Park one called “The Spirit of Christmas” (1995). I love watching South Park because I find the show hilarious, and I also find the animation style very unique. I believe they used stop-motion animation and cutouts to create their show. I like it because their artstyle is not highly detailed, but the show is still entertaining. The animation mainly uses solid colors and simple shapes. The second animation I saw was “Mothlight” by Stan Brakhage. Honestly, I didn’t know what was happening when I first watched it. I kept thinking I saw a bunch of bugs on the screen and leaves, and my eyes were hurting while watching. Probably not the best idea to watch this animation at night. The third animation I watched was “#MeToon” by Samantha Bee. I loved this animation because of its clever way of incorporating what the speakers were saying and making a creative display of their words. It reminds me of an animator I watch on Youtube called JaidenAnimations. Her style is similar to this, except she doesn’t show her face in the videos. The final animation I watched was “Hertzfeldt on Blu-Ray”. Even though this was optional, I found this intriguing to watch because he used both drawings and real life elements to create this surreal world. It’s almost as if I was going through different dimensions. I thought the combination of real world aspects and drawings were really interesting.Overall, these different types of animations show me that animation can be simple or detailed. As long as it all has meaning to it.
