It was John Lasseter, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg's biography that first inspired and told me that computer programming was an empowering and cool skill. When I tried coding - I found this tutorial in the web - when I was 14 I immediately realized that this was my thing. Using math, computer, and art. These were my favorite subjects and that probably explains why I got hooked to it.
It astonishes me seeing myself being able to create and move shapes –I was animating! Later I learned to create simple character by my self then I started storytelling with them. I titled it "banana in space". It was simple, black background with white dots as stars and a banana with dialogues that rotates and moves around. It was an amazing feeling. Feeling that you can imagine whatever you want while telling the computer what to do.
"The programmers of tomorrow are the wizards of the future. You'll look like you have superpowers compared to anybody else". Gabe Newell, co-founder of Valve, states. We believe that computer programmers are the next gen magicians. Blowing our minds with their creativity.
Especially that technology is as awesome as ever! Computer graphics has never been as real as now. The graphics, the art, the way Optimus Prime transforms. I always catch myself thinking "whoa!" or " how did they made it look so real!".
John Lasseter, chief creative officer at Pixar and Disney, voiced that "The art challenges technology, and the technology inspires the art". Technology is getting better everyday and more talented programmers are being produced. That means media, graphics, software, games, cellphone are getting better than last year, better than last month, better than yesterday! All I am left to say is I can't wait for the future, and how computer programming will change the world.
