Video's of advice from John Lasseter

Here are some videos on YouTube of John Lasseter giving advice to students and how to animate an inanimate object. After each video I have put notes from it. This is also the first Tip Jar post!



Don’t forget to study the basics, even for computer animation.
  • Basic drawing
  • Basic design
  • Basic fundamentals of animation
  • Film grammar (how do you stage things)
  • Story/writing (3 story act)




An inanimate object was made to do something so it would want to do it so anything that prevents it from doing that job would make it sad and full of anxiety. What would it be feeling? Try and not put a face on it. Consider the movement the object does in real life. Make the audience believe it is that object.
