GETTING ANIMATED
Olive Oyl was my
first animation crush.
Stop
looking for the similarities!!!!
Drawings in motion have been the backbone of many a
childhood journey. Look what Micky Mouse
has given us. Popeye The Sailor Man – I
STILL love you. What a man – although I never could work out whether Olive was
with Brutus or was she with Popeye, and you know what – who cares – it’s just
animation.

My sojourn into animation however, isn’t just about tricking
the eye. My tricks are always far loftier than that. Read on.
Does ‘Time Dilation’ mean anything to anyone? What about theories of relativity or Albert
Einstein?
Einstein’s
Theory
(in a
[particularly nutty] nut shell)
The faster we travel, the slower time
passes for us compared to other people who aren’t travelling as fast.
This theory has been scientifically
tested many times and never proven wrong, SO.
The
Hypothesis ( mine not Einstein’s)
If I was an animation, I should be
able to travel as fast or as slow as I please.
If so, then, I should be able to time warp.
Scientific notation :
Time Warp X
flip-o-mania* = Time Travel (Relativity)
* see
‘Captain Underpants’ for details
The
Test
Meet my new friend on this week’s
episode of Reel Time. Liana is an animator. She will inspire you to get
out those colouring pencils again. Why should the kids get all the fun! But
that’s not all.
Involved in the design of the Star Ways up and
coming website, Liana’s animation skills will be -‘tested’.
For the Results
Jasmine Neutron Star is the first book of the Star Ways
Chronicles. It is a novel most suitable
for young adult and teenager readers of speculative, fantasy / science fiction,
urban fantasy. It is a humorous account
of Jasmine’s first adventure into the world of light – Quanta. She is a spirem – a new kind of superhero –
and perfect for the sphere of Terra.
