vie consolidates both Poh and Goh’s careers as animation artists.

Poh talks about her career journey during an animation workshop at The One Academy.

“My contributions are mostly the gag sequences where the camera and characters should be able to make the audience laugh. I enjoyed the process of translating the jokes from storyboards into the 3D world and I am happy to have been able to contribute new shot angles and ideas to make it even more funny.”

INSPIRED TO ASPIRE

On one of the significant ways in which animation can transform learning, Goh noted: “Animation holds great influence over society because it is a form of entertainment that can be enjoyed by both the young and old and it can inspire values and change

mindsets subconsciously.

“For players in the industry, I strongly encourage them to use its power to help society to be more open-minded, diverse and kinder to each other.”

She also shared that technology can help improve society as “it works by encouraging us to ensure that our crafts are more engaging and portrayed with a unique human touch”.

The best way to learn and explore animation is simply by analysing the available animated and live action films. “Watching the behind-the-scenes and interview videos of these pictures is very helpful in understanding how a movie is made and how the pipeline works,” said Goh. “Nowadays, there are so many free tutorials online to help us get started. I wouldn’t say that animation is for everyone, but it is definitely for you if you work hard enough for it.”
