Hello! I am officially in your care as of this March! My name's Kuroda!
This is my exclusive dormitory diary entry for March.
The second drawing I posted is a caricature of a photo.
I recently said goodbye to a friend from elementary school and moved to Tokyo. We always went to see Detective Conan at the movie theater every year together, so it was sad to tell them that I wouldn’t be able to go this year and say goodbye. We promised each other that as soon as we get credit...

Hello. My name is Toshiki Kimura.
This is my dormitory diary entry for March.
I will be in your care for another year. I would like to extend another big thank you for being here.
This month, we’ve welcomed many new residents to the dormitory. There’s a lot more residents now compared to last year, so I think it’ll be very lively.
I haven’t met any of the new boarders yet, so I am both excited and nervous. Everyone is so good at drawing that I’ll need to up m...

Nice to meet you.
Starting in April, I will be working as an animator. My name is Kim Chansol.
I apologize for the late post. My FaceBook account was giving me trouble.
I’ve come from Korea to work at a Japanese animation company.
I’d wondered if I could really handle the life of a new animator, so I was very relieved to received support from this organization.
I have training before I fully enter the studio which starts next week. There are many uncertaintie...

Nice to meet you. My name is Kyoko Shimai and I will be an animator starting this April. I am moving to Tokyo from Osaka.
My training program is lasting fairly long, so perhaps I should say that I'll be (sort of) an animator.
I want to work such that I will be able to repay those who support us tenfold through my animation!
Around June of last year, I took my first animation job. I found that animation really requires patience and good senses. I was working with a simple cha...

Nice to meet you! I’m Nakamura, and I’m scheduled to become an animator starting this Spring.
April is coming, and I've been having a hard time managing my health with my busy schedule, so I'm constantly creating problems for those around me.
I’m not exactly sure when things will calm down, but for now, I’m just trying to take better care of myself so that I can get my feet on the ground.
I would also like to start working on my physical fitness by the end of this mo...

Nice to meet you.
My name is Watanabe, and I’ll be an animator come April.
The other day, I went to a real estate agent to pick out a room to stay in. There are so many more processes and procedures to moving than I imagined, so my days are busy but never boring.
As I complete each task on my list, it started to dawn on me that I’m really going to become an animator, which has always been my dream. I’m anxious about whether I’ll be able to make the cut, but at the sa...

Nice to meet you! My name is Konoka Yamamoto
I’ll be working as an animator come April!
The animation attached to this post is the storyboard, layout, keyframes, and in-betweens for a cut I did for my graduation project! It doesn’t have any camera work applied yet though.
I rushed all through February to get it done before our graduation exhibit and ended up finishing right before the deadline.
After the exhibit, I thought about what aspects of the other schools’...

Nice to meet you, I’m Kuroda. I’ll be an animator starting this April.
Here is my introductory dormitory diary entry for March.
I went to see my own art exhibit for graduation today. I tried my hand at a projection mapping piece, but I feel that if I had tweaked things just a bit more, I could have made something more true to the art form. I also felt some scenes could be better explored by tacking on some animation. I came out of it wishing that I’d been more particular abo...

Nice to meet you!
My name is Yuto Aoki.
This Spring, I will become a benefactor of your support.
I cannot express how thankful I am for our backers and the Animator Supporters organization.
As for my current situation, I’m in the middle of packing for my upcoming move at the end of this month. I’ve got a lot to pack, so it’s a lot of work…
Additionally, I’m also jumping onboard an anime production mid-way through while also trying to meet a deadline for...

Nice to meet you!
I’m Takazumi Ura, a soon-to-be animator coming this April.
I’ll be moving up to Tokyo from Ishikawa. Going into March, the layers of snow around here have almost dissipated as Spring makes its arrival.
On a personal note, I purchased an 8th generation iPad at the end of February. I’d been using an LCD tablet that I’d borrowed from my school until now, so I had to give it back once I graduated.
I had to get something new, but now I sorta regret...

Nice to meet you!
Starting this April, I’ll be working as an animator.
My name is Chitomona Yamaguchi.
This is my first dormitory diary entry.
I was been busy between preparations for my move and my art exhibition, but after those things have settled down a bit.
Currently, I’m studying every day as I prepare for my admission to my studio in April
I have a bit of anxiety about making such a large departure from what I was used to as a student, but at the...

I’ll be starting my career in animation this April. My name is Tomoki Sakamoto.
I’m heading to Tokyo from Osaka very soon and am currently in the middle of gathering my belongings as well as picking out furniture and appliances.
When I go to Tokyo, I won’t know anyone anymore, so I’d like to mingle with as many people as I can.
I’ve only drawn as a hobby until now, so knowing that many people will see my work going forward, I get a bit tense...

Hi everyone. Kimura here.
This is my Dormitory Diary entry for December.
December being the last month of the year, I’ve resolved to do some limit testing and see how many frames I can handle drawing in a single month. For in-betweens, one should reasonably be able to do 200. Recently, I’ve been breathing easier as I’ve gotten more used to digital animation, and from my testing, I’ve found that I can do 173 frames.
Digital art is more time-consuming than analog art, ...
