Our heroes hike a trail through the mountains. As they traverse a particularly steep bluff, Beetle gamely lifts Kubo up by his collar and plonks him onto his shoulder. {x}

Ok this has been requested over and over again so here we go with part 1! :)

Calling this done for now. Missed the mark a smidge but learned a ton. Gonna take another swing in a short while. Based on tumblr user @aznotnewk.

There’s three main groups: the flexors and extensors each take one half of the forearm, and the ridge muscles sit on top like a little tiara. Each group has it’s own unique form. Learning their anatomy will help you design awesomely dynamic arms.

Let’s try to make forearms manageable to draw. This is a body part most artists don’t quite understand. It can be real intimidating if you don’t know the muscles.

The arm has a simple chain design and the forms interlock down the arm.

To avoid the snowman effect, use straight, angular lines and look for asymmetries. Compare the apex of both sides of the forearm to understand the curvature better. Notice that the flexors reach lower on the wrist than the extensors and ridge muscles.

Look for this kind of thing when you’re drawing the gesture of the muscle groups. A wave rhythm where the curve on one side leads into the next curve on the other side.

I’ll explain more in-depth in the video - www.proko.com/179

11 Things Only People Who Suppress Their Emotions Will Understand

Some of us carry catastrophic storms in our hearts and minds wherever we go. They try to keep everything bottled in as they have trouble expressing themselves or nobody’s listening.

When they do react , they are reacting to not only the current situation but the many like it before. If two or more of these aspects relate to you then I’d suggest you start venting and seeking avenues of love and acceptance for yourself (and the safety of others).

A Closer Look: Landing an Internship

Internships are a big deal. They give you the experience that will get your foot in the door and bring you closer to your career goals. It’s not always mandatory to get an internship in college, but it can make or break your resume, seriously. The thing is, most college students don’t even know where to start with finding an internship, and most internships are wildly competitive. So we thought we’d share a few of our favorite ideas on landing the internship of your dreams.

Let’s start off with resumes. Three words: quality over quantity. Try not to go over one page. Remember that summer job at 16? Yeah, it was cool and all, but is it really necessary for this internship? You want to save space for all of the relevant experience you have so your resume is concise and clean. One-page resumes are professional and all-around better to keep up with. The company you’re interning for has tons of other resumes to look over, and they might just skip over yours because it’s too long. Keep things short, sweet and to the point.

This brings us to cover letters.

Cover letters are your first impression to the person reviewing your resume. They give you an opportunity to clearly explain why the qualifications in your resume makes you a relevant applicant. Unless an internship advertisement says “send resume only,” always attach a cover letter with your resume. All cover letters usually have an introduction, a body and a concluding paragraph. Be sure to address the company and highlight your qualifications, or experiences. To sum it all up: know who you’re writing to and bring some meat to the table.

Not all internships will be paid, and that’s alright because internships are essentially about the experience. You can get more experience from an unpaid internship than one that actually does pay. The purpose of an internship is to prepare you for the career that you are interested in pursuing and to give you job experience that will make you more hirable. Needless to say, you may get lucky and find an awesome internship that pays. But remember, paid internships are more competitive. If you really want that paid internship, bring your A-game with a solid resume and cover letter.    

Every internship is different. Take it as an opportunity to network, which is the most important thing you can do while interning with people in your desired field; and many jobs are found through networking. When you put that experience in your resume (hint hint) and make those connections, somebody is going to want to hire you. You’ll already be ahead of the game when you get that first job after graduation because you already learned many key components that go along with your career. Each major at Texas State has an internship coordinator so you can seek internships in your career field. You can make an appointment to sit down with them and discuss any internships around the area that you’re interested in.

It’s always better to hear back from several different internships, rather than one. Always have a plan B, C or all the way up to Z. Of course, check in and give them a call, but that doesn’t mean that the spots haven’t been filled already. There will be many others (some who already have degrees) competing for the same position, so it’s important to have more than one option. Pro-tips: Adjust your resume and cover letter to fit each internship description and always research the company beforehand. These tips are important for internships and will help boost both your resume and where you stand as a candidate. Don’t give up if you don’t get the internship you want; just keep swimming.

Visit Career Services. They do it all, literally. You have that interview coming up for that internship you’ve always wanted but have no idea about how to properly conduct yourself? You can set up an appointment for a mock interview to alleviate any stress and give you an idea of what to expect for the real thing. I’m telling you, Career Services is your Holy Grail. Their office is located on the fifth floor of LBJ, and there are internship flyers hanging up on bulletin boards leading up to it. Sweeet! Landing an internship: remember to create a thorough resume and cover letter, research the companies and keep your options open. Be patient, grasshopper. Your future internship awaits you.

Studio Ghibli Color Designer Michiyo Yasuda, has passed away. :’(

Michiyo Yasuda, long time animator & color designer of Studio Ghibli passed away 

Japan’s Mainichi has reported on the death of long time color designer and the chief of the ink and paint division of Studio Ghibli Michiyo Yasuda, who passed away of an undisclosed illness on October 5 at the age of 77. Yasuda started working at Toei Dogo before she was 20 and joined Studio Ghibli co-founders Isao Takahata and Hayao Miyazaki on the 1968 anime feature Horus, Prince of the Sun aka the Little Norse Prince.

Yasuda later worked on Miyazaki’s ‘78 TV anime Future Boy Conan, pre-Ghibli feature Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, and Studio Ghibli’s features such as Hayao Miyazaki’s My Neighbor Totoro,  Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle and Ponyo, as well as Isao Takahata works like Grave of the Fireflies. 

While Yasuda officially retried after Studio Ghibli released Ponyo in 2008, she came back in 2013 for Miyazaki's “final feature” The Wind Rises. Yasuda won an Animation Lifetime Achievement Award in 2011 from the Japan Movie Critics Awards.

Her career spanned over five decades, beginning as a tracer for animation before shifting into color work. She was present at the inception of Studio Ghibli, and continued to run the Color Department until her retirement following PONYO in 2008. Then returned to work for The Wind Rises.
