1
I think if you're looking for what kind of story you want to tell, I actually, what I used to do when I was in school, before I would start making a film, is I would just ask myself,
2
"If I could take a vacation anywhere, where would I want to go?" "You know, I'd like to go to a medieval castle.
3
Oh, that'd be a cool place to tell a story." So, you don't even have to necessarily start from a theme or a conflict, just
4
jump into a setting and then start thinking of the characters and what do they want and maybe
5
"Maybe this is a castle that's been too boring, so they've got to hire a dragon to come attack them." "And
6
so we're going to do a talent scout for a dragon." and then you just go from there.
7
So, you know, when in doubt, just let your mind go on a vacation.
8
Through storytelling and especially in animation, you can go anywhere that your mind can take you.
9
Sometimes it's fun to just think about what you would like to see.
10
What would you like to watch.
11
What is something that and for you personally, you would say, "Oh, I'd love to watch a movie like that," and make it.
12
And even if it's not perfect, it's great to
13
just have things out in the world that are personal to you and
14
It's good to look at other films for ideas and inspiration and structure and how they you know, work things out, problems that they may have,
15
But always.. try to stay true to your gut and go with something that is important to you.
16
I went to California Institute of the Arts, the school that was started by Walt Disney specifically for animators, and I studied character animation.
17
And one of the things you learn at CalArts is that you have your professors, which are great, they're professionals in the field.
18
The people you're really learning from are your fellow students.
19
They're the people that you are spending every day with
20
and you're telling jokes to and you're learning if you're not funny or if you're pitching your stories and you're realizing,
21
oh, you know what, I'm not making JG laughs.
22
Maybe I should make this story a little funnier.
23
And even to this day, when we pitch scenes to each other, Sometimes we forget that we're going to be showing them to billions of people in the world,
24
and we're just trying to make the director and our story crew laugh.
25
Because at the end of the day, we're just people telling stories to each other.
26
What happens when I tell the story to another person is that all these other things show up.
27
without me asking for them.
28
Even while I'm telling them.
29
the story starts to come alive.
30
the characters start to come along.
31
And then also, the person you told the story to, will tell you what they thought of it.
32
Notes.
33
They're free.
34
they actually are helping you make your story and your character better.
35
So that's why I encourage everybody, if you're crafting a story, and you want it to get better, keep telling your story over and over again.
36
You'd be surprised how good those characters and those stories become over a short period of time.
37
And you don't have to sit alone in a room.
38
with it, thinking that's good or bad or whatever.
39
Somebody can tell you.
40
So another important thing that I've coming to learn the more I'm working in the industry is,
41
it's, you know, it's filled with really amazing artists and you're kind of always struggling to figure out how to stand out.
42
And I think the best way to do that is to worry less about
43
what you think people want from you and just do express yourself as best as possible.
44
All the responses I got from the internship
45
and all the responses I got on my portfolio were just me going back and thinking about
46
what made me laugh or what were things that my siblings did
47
that made me laugh really hard and just try to express that into my boards and people would be like, how did you come up with that?
48
And I'd be like, you know, I, didn't come up with it.
49
It's just like, you know, this is me and what I'm exposed to.
50
And, you know, and people really react into that and wanted more of it and, you know, thought it was entertaining or fresh and new.
51
So I think that's the biggest advice I could give is just, you know, figure out what influences you in your life and try to display that in your art.
52
So I think a big thing to remember if you're trying to get a job somewhere like Pixar is to be yourself.
53
I know it sounds cliche, but it really is important.
54
There's a lot of failure, of course.
55
There's a lot of times when you're wrong.
56
There's a lot of times when you think that something is working and it's not.
57
That actually is the most important thing that could happen to you as a storyteller.
58
is when things are not working.
59
and when things are kind of only slightly working, you always want to get better.
60
And the only way you're going to get better is if you keep trying.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
