"The Bill Plympton Show"_movie review

"The Bill Plympton Show" was reasonably awesome. I went to movie opening and the lecture, which I found it was funny and knowledgeable. Plympton grew up in Portland, Oregon, than moved to New York City to become an illustrator since in his time of study an animation degree was not possible. Plympton learned how to think up his ideas fast and draw fast. After years of beginning illustator, Plympton found himself into animation where at this time his work was so impressive Walt Disney wanted to hire him. Plympton did not take the position, but he became a famous independent animator where his work has been seen on MTV and over seas.

For me, I was more impress with Plympton’s line work in his animation than the movies themselves. I was surprised to learn how cheap, short, and funny some of the movies where. Overall, I enjoy myself.
