passionpeachy if I hear one more mediocre cartoon critic use the word "calarts style" as a catch all term for any new cartoon that's vaguely round looking I'm going to gotdamin lose it passionpeachy another thing: I'm begging you to actually WATCH the films that come out of calarts these days because it's very obvious you didn't even bother looking at them before you came to the conclusion that "it's all stevens universe right and you're only parroting what a cartoon youtuber told you gun-flame The term was also coined by John Kricfalusi so maybe you guys don't want to use a term coined by a p--------- y'know passionpeachy I didn't believe you at first and was going to ask for sources but then I remembered the f------ infamous blog he used to run almost exclusively to complain about modern cartoons and lo and behold C D johnkstuff.blogspot.com/2010/01/cal-arts.style.html?mel John K Stuff Tuesday, January 12, 2010 The Cal Arts Style When cartoonists refer to the Cal Arts Style they are taking about this recycled look that is not influenced by life or even other cartoon styles It is strictly a straight ine of inheritance through a few generations starting from somewhere around the "Aristocats" Losing important genetic code with each new generaton and getting staler and staler it has been blended with 7Üs Hanns Barbera Nelvana and Sheridan College in the last 20 years- and even a bit of Spumco, but the basic core of the feeling- sofl Disney is Cal Arts the people who grow up inspired by copies of copies of 60s Disney animation learn to accept these few stylistic things and don't realize they are doing t They unconsciously absorb it and regurgitate it in their films until the next generation comes along and copies their copies. Most Cal Arts graduates will say there is no Cal Arts Style, but everyone who didn't go there f they have wider wider -can spot it I'm making a direct apology to all you Cal Arts students. I have used the term "The Cal Arts Style" to point to many familiar modern drawing and animation cliches in order to contrast them against more universal animation drawing principles, and I can understand why students might think I am directly blaming them or attacking them which I am absolutely not! back then "calarts style" meant disney style and he was dragging the designs in the Iron Giant and the Incredibles despite him hiring the same guy to work in Ren & Stimpy but I don't doubt this is where that term comes from since apparently he p----- off a large portion of animation community with that post ............Once again it's all John K's fault
