This class in life drawing, of a nude model, was very pleasant, yet awkward as the drawing technique we were instructed to implement, guiding a charcoal stub taped to the end of a bamboo cain whilst standing, through most of us off. This exercise immediately opened my eyes in appreciation whilst observing the various research pieces in the Lecture of Animation Theory that Magnus presented today.

Magnus's Lecture on research and Theory, however, was just as enriched with ingenious visual art techniques for the budding young animator. This lecture journeyed from man's earliest attempts at animatable art, e.g. key framed figures drawn on ancient surfaces including the "Cauvet Cave" (32,000 years old) a decorated Iranian Bowl (5,200 years old) and a egyptian motion piece (400 years old), to the first deliberate inventions of machines purposefully built for animation purposes. This session set a standard for the students in terms of the dedication required to move the hearts of the calibur of artists assessing work at this University.
