In my opinion, art plays an essential role in our society due to the purpose it
serves in communicating with the world. Of all the different types of arts, animation is
something that fascinates me more than anything I had ever known and never fails to
captivate me. When I was 7, I first came crossed animation through “Spirited Away”.
As a child, even though I was not able to fully grasp the depth of the story, I was
overwhelmed by the power of animation and felt that a new world was opened right in
front of me. I could not stop looking at the exquisite hand-drawing scenes and
laughing or crying along with the mood swings of the characters. It was in that
moment I decided to drawing, to making animation, and to telling a great story to
people through my hands.
