Reflection

As an artist, I have always tried to use my talent and ability to spread the word for animal rights and human rights. This time, I chose to create an animation that mainly focuses on the issue of entanglement and background of North Atlantic Right Whales. Some scenes in the clip were inspired by a documentary that I watched when I was little called: "The Dolphin Cave". By then, I realized that my power was too weak to make any change in the world. However, ten years from then, I am able to create cartoons that can educate the younger generation but also raise awareness of ocean health. Throughout the project, I have definitely learned a lot about how industrialization had harmed so many marine lives. As a member of my school's environmental action club, I was able to have spread the message quicker and reinforce recycling to reduce the amount of plastic that goes into the Ocean. When creating more than 500 frames for the clip, I was able to reconsider how humans can have both of a positive and negative impact on the health of the ocean.
