Leo Babauta posted this on his blog recently, where he got to tak to a Pixar animator while giving his children a tour of the studio.
There’s some really cool points made, that can carry over to pretty much any creative medium. My favourite part was this:
Quote:Tenacity matters. Bernhard told a story of a friend who did a drawing every day, for more than 3 years, and became amazingly good by the end of that stint. He shared Looney Toons legendary animator Chuck Jones’ assertion that you have to draw 100,000 bad drawings before you have a good drawing. Bernhard said you might not seem very good at something when you start out, but if you’re persistent, tenacious even, you can get amazingly good.What do you think?
