A day in my life - 5 little Ducks

Bonjour, Hello dear reader, 

How are you? Thanks for coming here!
My name is Pascal. I am the creator of Frenchy Bunny, cute characters and animation for children. 

Today, I've been working on the video  about the song "5 Little Ducks". I translated the English version, and adapted it slightly, so the rhyme and the rythm still work. 

I did the recording, and then just for the editing, it took me several hours. 
It's crazy, because it seems so simple.
There are 3 scenes which repeat themselves, over and over... 5 ducks, 4 ducks, ...
But the French version is a little different, so I had to re-edit the whole thing. 

5 little Ducks
Here is the English version 






and the French version,
with this amazing close-up of Mother Duck!:)

(I know it's ridiculous to speak about these things. But you know how I am?! 
I love it! Changing a boring day with something colorful and absolutely riduiculous!:)

And I like that. I added as well a close up for mother duck, when she find out that none little duck came back. 
It's so funny to speak about things which are so unreal.:)

Well, that's what I do, guys.

I heard in an interview, I think it were guys from Pixar. And so the guy is complaining to his colleague because they had to redo, and redo, over and over, an animation to improve it. The animation was about a frog. A simple frog, and they probably wrecked their brain to adjust the animation and reach perfection.

And his friend told him: "come on, it's not so bad when you spend the whole day working on making a frog move.  I mean if we have to complain, what the rest of the world should say?" 

So, I spend the day with the "5 little Ducks"!:)

=========================

Something else....
If you have one dream, work on it. I'm not saying drop everything, or quit your job, to follow your dream. No. Just start working on it, learning the field, studying the pros and cons, see if it is realistic, if it can work, if you can really make a living out of it. This research is basically what they call a market study or market research. 
Before jumping in the pool, just check if there's enough water, OK? 
Simple as that.
Invest your time in getting new skills, learning new things, and it will be a start, because you start building as soon as you do the first step in the direction of your goal. 

Another thing, keep focusing on something you really like, something you're really passionate. Because, if you really like it, you will keep working on it, whatever happens, if it's snowing, pouring with rain, or if the whole world goes down around you, you will go on, when the others quit. 
And that's a rule of success. Persistence, being able to overcome the big difficulties when it gets really tough. 
Success requires work. But when it gets too hard, most people quit. And it's only by going on that you get better.
"Vouloir, c'est pouvoir"   and I think Napoleon said: "Pouvoir, c'est gagner"
To will is to be able to,    and " being able to is winning"
Have a great day! You're the best! And if you want something, if you really want something, work on it, and you will get it!
