THE CRITIQUE CHALLENGE


       For this second assignmnet, me and my group members namely Norliza Untam,Toji Ali ,Faizal had choose  “Bugs Race - Funny Brilliant Animation by Anna Jurkiewicz & Andrzej Ellert “ as our critique Challenge through aesthetic evaluation. In order to do that, I had to state my criterion on subjectivism perspective to judge that animation. The others criterion are state; i.e:
1.       Audience should be eager to watch this animation again during past time.
2.       Audience should be able to enjoy this animation for a long time as compared with the other animation , “Bully”.
3.       Audience should be able to laugh out loud from beginning to end.

               From this animation, I found that even though the storyline was simple but its very impressive and the message also easy to be understand. For me, since the first time I watch this animation, its really impressive and had make me laugh until the end of the animation.
       What I had see in this animation,its used the characters of bugs or an insects which have their own unique characteristics. “Bugs race  ” is about the race between bugs at garden or in their own bug’s world. Then, in order to win the “crown” which is the award for the race, the bugs play dirt. They sabotage the other participant and used whatever tricks. This make me become more attracted to the animation cause its show the wisdom of the bugs that I never thought. Even its just an animation but yet its show the creativities of the animator that had think “out of box” to make the bugs played their own role in making a clever ideas to tricks ever each of their competitors. For example, the ants  which was one of the antagonist character always use dirt tricks to tricked its enemies. Beside  that , they also had kidnapped a purple bug which is one of the participants of the race and had created a purple bug that looked likes the original one that they had kidnapped. So, meaning the ants had used a dirt technique from the start to joined  the race and disguised into the purple bugs. Not only that, they also play dirt during the race including falled a flower onto the spider ,which also one of the bug’s race participant.
           Furthermore, there also got another one bug that played dirt which is the snail. What I see, the snail maybe an army snail cause based on its pattern of the shell is the pattern of an army that we used to see. The snail not really played dirt tricks likes the ant but its used a technique that can make its move faster than the others bugs in the race.Even though its just used a characters of bugs. And I also likes the ending  of the animation which when the snail and ants busy fighting each other until the forget their goals is to win the first place ,the spider had won the crown and sat at the first place. But also not forget the small character, the green worm that very naïf and only busy with itself  which also almost had win the first place. When watching this animation I kept laughing with my group members about the funny storyline.
            Next I also want to critique the norm-referenced assesment about the other three criterion which are objectivisim , relativism and emotivisim . In objectivism, its does not suitable to make a judgement cause its judgement doesn’t about the aesthetics values. This is because audience should enjoy watched the animation and not only watch its during past time. As for the relativism, I really disagree with its.This is because every animation had its own technique and style to make its special and unique. The animators for the animation will used different software and shooting style whether stop motion, hybrid animation and others different time in animation. Its make every each of the animation are more impressive. And last for the emotivism ,an emotion can’t judged the animation cause its only will judge based on emotion and not by the principles of the aesthetic values.
          As  the conclusion, this animation was very impressive and attractive. Its not only enjoying the audience but also deliver a good message that we can understand in its every chronology. The idea of bugs that had being use in every the character was very cute and adorable. Even though, only the subjectivism perspectives that can be achieved but the others three didn’t reach the criterion but yet animation are something that being created by thinking beyond of our imagination.
