Artist Statement:
My animation is about a little orange bear that saves two of his best friends’ lives. When Mr. Blue Bear gets hurt because he jumped off a very high rock, Orange immediately calls the hospital people and they have a room ready and Yellow takes him away in the car. Then when purple gets stuck in the water and can’t get out and she’s going to drown, he gets a ladder and climbs in and saves her. It took me two entire hours to get this [animation] right. It was very frustrating, but I finally got it! I think it was really challenging because my shadow was in a few pictures, but I got it finally. I am proud of how well it turned out.
