students discussed the fact that their high schools didnot have information technology or computer-based classes in it, they did not know anyone whoworked in the field, and they had never tried programming before. In these cases, the studentsdiscovered the field of computer science by accident, typically by taking a class required for adifferent major. For example: Personally, I came to [university] to be an electrical engineer, because I'm really good at abstraction. I took Intro to Media Computation just for fun, and then I really liked it, but then I thought I couldn't get a job in computer science.

However, animation creation is time intensive, typically 1-2 hours each.
