À propos de cet audio
What happens when you dedicate your life to an art form—and the world around you changes faster than your dreams can keep up?
In Part 2 on #OldAsianLady, we reunite with Jean-Jacques Chen, an animator whose career has spanned continents, mediums, and evolving technologies. From his early days obsessing over Dragon Ball and sketching every stroke by hand, to becoming a versatile creator working in MVs, film, and even video games, JJ shares what it really takes to build—and rebuild—a creative life.
JJ dives into:
- The grueling yet transformative years at La Cambre in Belgium
- Why he chose 2D over 3D animation
- How Princess Mononoke and Chinese ink painting shaped his visual identity
- Watching Taiwan’s 2D animation scene fade as 3D rose to dominance
- What Taiwan can learn from Japan & Korea when it comes to building cultural soft power.
