International Animation Day 2021
 |
I loved the old Bob Clampett series called Beany and Cecil, I was enamoured with Astroboy, even Clutch Cargo and Space Angel.
You would think this love would have followed me into my present ... but alas it was not to be.
I find that the manga and anime simply didn't hold my interest. This was likely a function of my need to immerse into the technical literature of the times and now I don't watch television like I used to.
Today we have another International Animation Day held each October 28 under the auspices of the International Animated Film Association since 2002.
It celebrates the art of animation.
Sapphire Sandalo is an animator. I know her from other genres such as podcasting and I enjoy her work on television very much.
She worked as an animator and character designer for many commercials and TV series for FXX, Comedy Central, Adult Swim, and MTV.
Looking over her resume as an animator she is very qualified to represent the art hands down.
She works two series I catch periodically called "Paranormal Caught On Camera" and "Paranormal Nightshift" on Travel Channel.
Sapphire's animation talents were a hidden gem in that interest she cultivated in me over the long time I have watched her on television — I mean, seeing how it IS a main claim to fame.
