Out of the Inkwell - Modeling (1921)
To start off, the concept of the video was great. It's always cool to see your drawings come to life, literally speaking based on this video. I enjoyed the humor in this video. I liked how the artist drew a clown only to have to that clown draw an exaggerated cartoon profile of the artist. Back in 1921, I assume this style of animation, rotoscoping, was one of the best. Its amazing how the movements were so smooth and everything seems to flow very well. Even with no dialogue, the idea definitely came across through the facials expressions, body movements and along with the playful music, which reminds me of the kind of music played on a carousel. And lastly, at the end, to see the clown sort of blend or hide himself back with the ink that formed it was very clever. A very suitable way to end the video.
