At just ten years old, Amaru is already dreaming big. A fifth grader at I Dream PCS, he envisions a future where he brings stories to life through animation, creating movies that captivate audiences and spark imaginations.
Amaru’s passion for animation began with videos that sparked his curiosity. “I watched a lot of videos about animating, and I liked it,” he shares. “I want to animate a movie.” Dream Time in Action During Dream Time, Amaru is taking his first steps toward mastering animation. Using the Toy Theater Animation Station, he’s learning how to make objects move frame by frame. His excitement is evident as he explains, “Each frame, you make the thing move slower so it looks fast when it plays.” Though he’s currently focused on practicing, Amaru is already showcasing his progress to his family. “I enjoy showing it to my parents and brothers,” he says proudly, recalling their surprise when he created a digital explosion on his tablet. The Tools of a Dreamer While Amaru is honing his skills, he’s also keenly aware of the limitations of his current tools. “I don’t have a computer at home,” he explains. “On Toy Theater, when I make a new frame, it deletes the drawing. With a PC, I could find better apps that save my drawings or let me copy and paste to make animation smoother.” Amaru dreams of having a PC to take his skills to the next level, explore advanced animation software, and one day bring his movie ideas to life. Dreaming of Tomorrow When asked to imagine his future, Amaru lights up. “Me animating my own movie,” he says confidently. Though he hasn’t settled on a storyline yet, he’s already planning to share his work on YouTube, where his talent and creativity can inspire others.
