The reason why I wanted to animate


To put it simply this scene:

Jodi Benson 'Part of your World' The Little Mermaid -1989

'The Little Mermaid' was the first 2D animated film I ever watched and has stuck with me all these years, but it was this scene that made me want to draw for a living and eventually become an animator. It's also where my obsession with mermaids came from! I love the way Ariel swims so gracefully and naturally, like this was how any mermaid would swim and the way her hair moves underwater is just beautiful. Because of this one scene Glen Keane became one of my all time heroes and one day a fellow animator I would love to meet.
