  • Take a peek into the mind of Bobby Chiu.
    Bobby’s art career started at the age of seventeen, designing Disney, Warner Bros., and Star Wars toys at Thinkway Toys in Toronto, Canada. He has since won a number of awards for his independent work and is featured perennially in various juried art annuals and magazines.
    Bobby is the founder of Imaginism Studios in Toronto, Canada. He presently does multimedia concept design, having created characters, creatures, and beasts for such blockbuster motion pictures as Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, Alice through the Looking Glass and Men in Black 3.

      Please why are you saying sorry for your face as a Muslim we believe that we are all created by Allah and when some says something awful about your face they’re criticizing God’s creation, we are all in perfect condition our eyes our nose our mouth are just in perfect order and design, we all look at who you really are and it’s you that decide who you are not your face , the soul is the only thing that matters and I can only see beauty from you 🌷

      Nothing wrong with your face, Bobby. It's the constant shift back and forth between a super close up and a sort of a medium shot of the sketchbook that gets annoying.

    Bobby’s art is so captivating to me. The subjects he draws, but also the faintness of the sketches give a real whimsical feel. I think any of it would make for a great children’s show/book/movie. Plus, Bobby seems very chill and down to earth. Some of the artists featured can feel very pretentious.

      AGREED! They can do the close up of the artist in the beginning and end of the vid. In between should focus on the sketchbook ONLY.

    • @Vo-iDstudio
      @Vo-iDstudio 4 роки тому +18

      I think you have to acknowledge the videographers and editors are artists in their own right and the aesthetics and style of this channel are very consistent. They should be able to present their vision as they see fit. It is not meant to be a drawing tutorial. There are hundreds of those elsewhere.

    We don't need the constant closeups of his face throughout the piece.. I understand you are highlighting the person behind the art, but at a certain point it truly detracts from the work itself. I know I'm not the only one who feels this way about the editing/style of video. Listen to the feedback and trust that the content will be better!

It’s fine to not like the style but to tell tell these creators what they should be doing is silly.

    I am taken back to my youth, listening to a true hippie explain how society could be explained by a bowl of soup, in which we are all the vegetables, those who think that they have made it are the chunks of meat, but the soup, the soup was made for *The Man* who will devour the potato-people, the crazy -carrot-folk, the pea-peasants, & the middle-class-meat-men all together.

    I've noticed even on other sketchbook series videos that most of the liked comments explain how annoying and uninteresting it is to always have super- right on the face clips of the artists. I mean yes, it is to enhance the quality of the video and to depict their emotions while going through their sketchbook. But, it is kind of annoying and nauseating having it up on so many angles that I just get motion sickness from it. From a stable shot to a handheld shot is cool yeah but uhhhh. Maybe better transitions? It just hurts to watchh. Hope you guys take these comments into consideration haha
