With all the bad news surrounding Animation and the world, itā€™s important to share around good news too. And, Iā€™m sharing this, because Iā€™m a huge fan of ā€œThe Dragon Princeā€.
Netflix quietly released this amazing trailer for the upcoming Seventh Season, which Iā€™m hoping wonā€™t be the last ā­ļø

With the Animation Rally tonight, I wanted to do my part and get a post out about Animation. As an amateur writer I like to take inspiration from a variety of places, including Animation. With that said, here are the top 5 Reasons I like watching Animated Shows:Ā 

1 The Writing is unusually better: Due to the time it takes to create animation, the writing has to be good in order for viewers to stay engaged. Having watched a mix of both live action and animated shows, I can honestly say that the writing is for the most part, more consistent in quality than live action shows.Ā 
2 Interesting characters: Adding on to my above point, not only are animated characters interesting design-wise, but they tend to have more consistency than live action characters in terms of personality traits and decision making.Ā 
3 The limitless visual potential: There are things that animation can do visually that live action and even CGI simply cannot. While both are limited by budget, Animation can achieve visuals closer to what was originally visualized. A great example of this is when a show includes magic. Thereā€™s a broader range of how magic can be visually shown.Ā 
4 More variety in storytelling: Oftentimes Animated Series tend to have a variety of styles and genres of storytelling even within single seasons. For example, a heavily comedic episode followed a horror-inspired episode.Ā 
5 Less potential for minor distractions: Weā€™ve all had moments when watching live action films or series where we are distracted by something in the visuals. For instance, finding a film hard to enjoy because of the crappy CGI, or cheap-looking costumes or props. With Animation, thereā€™s less potential for minor details like this to distract from the visual world and the story.Ā 
As with anything, there are always exceptions (*cough* *cough* ā€œVelmaā€), but overall Iā€™ve found these examples to be true for most Animated shows that Iā€™ve watched, especially in the fantasy and sci-fi genres. I stand in solidarity with the Animation workers who are fighting for better pay and working conditions. Thank you for taking time to read and hey, share this around if you like.Ā #standwithanimation
