Have respect for animation, no matter the surface.

I’m currently working on a small flipbook for school that will eventually be digitialized.  Although it’s only 60 frames, I find my self exhausted and bored with drawing similar items and positions repeatedly.  Through my frustration I’ve developed a huge amount of respect for animators, especially those working with stop motion or still frames.  I recently came across this video of an animator utilizing graffiti and building walls as his medium.  Although its creation is probably illegal, the final result is incredibly impressive.

Enjoy.
