Seven Things I Learned From My Father


Seven Things I Learned From My Father. This is a recording of a slideshow I did for the animators at DNEG Redefine in Hyderabad last week on Dad's birthday - he was born on 19 March 1933. I was trying to think of a way to celebrate his birthday in a way that might be useful to the animation team. His book, the Animator's Survival Kit, is big in India - all the animators seemed to have a copy.  I came up with a list of seven lessons I learned from Dad in the course of becoming an animator.  Of course, I learned more than seven things from him - but these are the seven lessons that seemed important, and also a good number for a short talk.  Enjoy.

  2. This heartfelt tribute really shows how personal experiences can shape an artist’s journey, especially when lessons come from someone as iconic as a father. Honestly, I loved how you connected these life teachings with your creative path proton ge really shines in meaningful storytelling like this.
