"if u only “ like “ white fcs u ARE racist like literally it is that simple." i'm not baiting but i'm having a hard time seeing the simplicity in your claim. maybe some others too who are anxious to speak up, i don't know. i am not neurotypical so perhaps something is being lost between the lines here.
ok its not actually that simple , per se , i can admit that was a Simplification of a very long-winded answer , but long story short : i do think you’re a racist or hold very racist ideals and microaggressions towards people of colour if you ‘ just so happen ‘ to only like / rp / portray / want to play white people .

“Lecturer of chemistry” isnt something anyone in the field of chemistry would ever phrase like that. Unless you’re an atmospheric chemist Im p sure you arent working with climate change. Ice Age isnt a Disney movie. Ice Age is literally about talking animals and has nothing to do with geography. Im fucking rolling. I hope to god that last anon was joking. Im fucking rolling either way. Holy fucking shit
[ sorry this took a couple days to answer i figured if they already thought my followers/friends were bullying them posting this straight away might set them off again akdhnzsjsk ]
Yeah I have to admit the ice age bit really caught me off guard😂😂😂 Like you are right I love ice age but how does this have anything to do with anything?!? But yeah ngl, even if you are a chemistry lecturer doesn’t necessarily mean you know everything in that field. I’m a geologist but if someone came to me and started talking about Geophysics, I mean i could give it a stab but chances are i’m gonna be confused😂😂😂 Yeah idk its a tricky one but i figured i would answer them seriously and aim to educate tbh☺️☺️

Sorry if youve been asked this before ;; but i'm in HS rn and im aiming to submit an Sher Animation portfolio soon! And they completely changed it this year so im sUUUUper stressed. Especially for the personal pieces... Do you have any tips for getting in? Also how many tries on average does it take to get in ;; im worried i might not be good enough right now hhh. But I rlly look up to u and i love ur art so it would mean a lot if u would respond!! Thank you for ur time :'D !!!!
hhh sorry for the late reply, i had a big exam this week n its been stressing me out :’) luckily thats over n done now so!! heres some advice!!
im not entirely familiar w the new portfolio guidelines, but i do know in a broader sense the elements that ppl are looking for. I’m not gonna give u a bunch of art tips because you’ve probably heard them all a bajillion times: keep a sketchbook, study anatomy, look at lots of art, etc… see this ask for more technique-based advice.
what i will tell you is, besides artistic technique, the main thing this program wants is artists with a strong sense of STORY. animation is the hybrid of art and story-telling in a time-based medium, and you may b artistically talented but if you don’t have a strong grasp on storytelling this may not b the program for you.
with that in mind, take every opportunity in your portfolio to depict some sort of story.  your personal pieces are the perfect opportunity to display this.  You may rly like a drawing of ur oc that u did, but if you cant get any sense of character traits or narrative from that piece, you should probably pick something else.  your personal pieces should depict some sort of broader narrative, ideally with a sense of composition.  look up some concept art for some of your favorite animation, and take note of how one illustration provides you with an understanding of plot, character, setting, or some other aspect of story-telling.  Try to tell us something about your story, however vague it may be, thru ur artwork.
composition’s a big one too.  obviously this doesnt apply to the more technical portions of the portfolio, but for elements such as your personal pieces and storyboard, composition is rly important.  look for clarity in your compositions, particularly your storyboard.  the purpose of a storyboard is to show the rest of your team how you want a scene to play out, so strive for clear transitions (how did the character get from point a to point b) and insight into a character’s thoughts and emotions.  good composition doesn’t necessarily mean detail, it means creating a piece that is balanced and clear, where the eye is drawn to the most important subjects first.  whether this is done thru line weight, lighting or some other element of design is up to you.
i got into this program on my first try, but keep in mind that a) im 21 and b) i took time off from school to work n save up money, n during that time drew and taught myself stuff as much as i could.  Some ppl i know got in fresh outta high school, others got in after a couple of tries.
what a lot of ppl do if they don’t get in on the first try is study art fundamentals at sheridan for a year.  the purpose of fundies is to give everyone a multi-discipline approach to making art, and from there ppl branch off to whatever program they wanna do.  Fundies is specifically made to help students get into the program of their choice, and offers lots of resources for critique and portfolio-building.  A good amount of ppl i kno in animation got there after taking art fundamentals for a year and then re-applying.
that being said, there’s rly no failsafe way to predict whether you’ll get in on the first try. every wave of applicants is unique and there are definitely ppl who get rejected even if they deserve a place in the program.  That’s just how it goes for any competitive college program tbh,, the whole thing is p subjective.  I kno this probably isnt v comforting, but if you rly have ur heart set on animation i urge you to keep trying, and in the case of rejection, to use that as an opportunity to focus on improving ur weak points.
if you want more info i’d encourage u to pm me off anon so i can answer any specific questions u may have,, im always happy to help fellow animators. i wish u the best of luck!!
