Hello everyone!
My name is David aged 22. I'm studying Animation/Illustration at San Jose State University.
I'll try to post my work, hopefully with not too many reblogs of things :P • Got a question?

LOOPER!
Just saw Looper, and it’s probably one of my favorite movies now. SO COOL!
In other but still related news, I started reading and caught up with Homestuck in the last month, because I had been seeing it on tumblr so much I just got curious. It turned out to be pretty good.It also made watching Looper easier to understand in terms of time shenanigans (wait, that’s from Homestuck too isn’t it… Oh God it’s getting to me!). There was a scene that reminded me of Past and Future Karkat arguments, like almost exactly the same emotions.
In summary: WATCH LOOPER AND READ HOMESTUCK! (it’s at mspaintadventures.com)
Hey guys! Sorry I haven’t been posting anything lately. I’ve been really busy with school starting and starting an internship with a church. Here’s some location studies from my animation class.

SETO-KAIBA-STARING-OUT-THE-WINDOW-WHILE-IT-RAINS FLIPBOOK
i am asking all people to participate in drawing seto kaiba.
i am also participating.
i will compile all the images and make it into a book and if you like it you can preorder it and i will make the books to fulfill the preorders. the price of the book will depend on how many people end up participating. the maximum number of participants is something like 350.
also all participating artists will be listed at the end of the book along with their website.
—
tips:
-you must use the template or else the flipbook wont work.
-your image must contain and rain, a window, and seto kaiba.
-everything outside the red boxes will be cropped (keep everything important inside the red boxes). you can download the template here.
-it doesn’t matter if you think you can draw or not. honestly, if your piece really does suck, its going to make this book a whole lot funnier.
-you can draw whatever on the left side of the image as long as its SFW.
-the right side of your piece must contain seto kaiba.
-remember to sign your piece! :)
—
as a side note, the title of the book has not been decided. if you can think of any, and your title becomes the title of the book, you will receive a book for free.
current suggestions are:
50 shades of kaiba
swords of revealing kaiba
its raining kaiba

Petition for Fair Representation of the SJSU Animation/Illustration Department
Okay, the Animation/Illustration program at San Jose State university has been unfairly treated by the College of Humanities and the Arts for years. We have now been so frustrated by those controlling what we can and cannot do, and we demand that we are allowed to become our own department so WE can control our own resources. A direct quote from the petition states:
It is important that the Animation/Illustration program become its own department because we are not being represented adequately enough within our College of Humanities and Arts.
Without a chair, the Animation/Illustration program does not have adequate representation at meetings where issues important to students are decided (for example, at space allocation meetings). What current representation we do have is not adequately informed about the concerns of students in the Animation/Illustration program and therefore is not sufficiently prepared to make compelling cases for student needs.
Without a chair, the Animation/Illustration does not have a vote in previously mentioned meetings.
“Program Status” places an unnecessary burden on the RTVFT department and other university administrators to understand and represent Animation/Illustration concerns. As an independent department, Animation/Illustration could better self manage to the benefit of the entire university.Let me illustrated some problems we have encountered for several years.
- From the timeframe of 2008 to 2012, the number of other arts students has decreased over 60 percent. In the same timeframe, the number of A/I students has increased over 200 percent. We have jumped from roughly 130 students to over 500 within our major.
- In relation to the above, we only have a small handful [between 5-8] to ourselves for classes, or we have to share with the rest of the arts, which have priority access. The rest of the art department occupy both the first and 3rd floors of the buildings, plus over half of the second floor, where all our rooms are located. In an effort to find space, some of our beginning A/I students have to move over 30+ pounds of heavy equipment in and out of rooms to accommodate fine arts students.
- Again, with ratios, we have to distribute all our students within 40 or so sections of classes that we are allowed to have, while arts receive 80 sections to offer to their smaller enrollment.
- There has been an enormous problem adding classes, which is affecting me at this very moment. With so few sections and too many students, we have to add over class capacities so people can move through the program. The professors understand and are generous to take a few extras, because they are fighting with us. Starting this semester, we have been requested to fill out a petition for an add code. There have been numerous problems with this. Those working in the office of College of Humanities and the Arts do not seem to understand our classes, or outright ignore requirements at the expense of rejecting students even with proof in a transcript. Or even worse, they have ignored requests and just never respond.
- Recently, we have a new dean of the college, and she has insisted on not listening to any of our complaints. When one of our program heads tried to call a meeting to discuss issues, she replied “I have already spent enough time on Animation/Illustration”.
- Also, with only being a program, our department heads DO NOT get to attend meetings where our problems are heard. Instead, we have to go through another person representing us in Radio-Television-Film who, while they make an effort, do NOT understand firsthand our needs.
Even if you are not attending SJSU, or not even a student, I hope you have read the reasons stated and sign the petition. Every signature helps our cause to look forward to a better future for our students and faculty.
In closing, all we ask is that we are treated fairly and allowed enough resources to be given to us so that we can successfully enjoy the education that we have paid thousands of dollars for. All we ask is for a voice.
WE WANT TO BE HEARD.
Reposting for the daylight people.
