As of right now, my favorite animator is both a short film animator and illustrator, based in South Korea, named Puuung. I found her as I was browsing social media, and immediately fell in love with her cute short and relatable films. Although short and quite simple, the message she tries to display is clear and anyone watching can’t help but say “Aww”.
She works in 2D and her whole production is very simple, but as a new animator, still learning the basics, I felt very inspired. That something simple as this can be created and yet still send the intended message and lesson across in the clearest way.
