How to draw a polar bear, with legendary animator Aaron Blaise
In this video, legendary animator Aaron Blaise talks about his inspiration and process for designing and developing the primary polar bear character for his new animated short film, Snow Bear.
It all started with the inspiration, and then he moved into research: reading books, watching video, and even going to the zoo to watch a polar bear live. But how does he approach taking a very realistic polar bear design and turn it into an expressive character for his new short film? Watch along to find out.
The power of digital ink
Humans have been using ink for thousands of years to express ourselves and preserve knowledge – from plant-based paintings on cave walls to writing and illustrating foundational cultural manuscripts. In the 20th and 21st centuries, digital ink has taken this uniquely human impulse to the next level, with Wacom at the forefront. Wacom created the electro-magnetic resonance (EMR) technology that powers our devices, and we’ve been perfecting it ever since. Today, creatives worldwide use Wacom technology to empower their work through the use of digital ink.

#WacomBlog Feature 📝
Do you create hidden meaning or messages in your work?
"I do sometimes! I really like telling stories, and I love when there’s an underlying meaning to photos. When someone looks at one of my photos, I want them to feel the message, and to feel a certain emotion. That makes me so happy when people say they really feel the emotion from my work."
