Animation with The Walt Disney Family Museum - Day 3

The group started the day by visiting The Walt Disney Family Museum to tour the galleries. There we were able to learn more about Walt Disney’s life and his career. After that we went to the Cartoon Art Museum where we practiced character designs and learned about some famous cartoon artists. The rest of the day we spent touring in the Academy of Art University at the departments of animation, 3d graphics, and puppetry. I was glad to see what is it like to study and work in animation at the university. -Oleksandra
