3. Kentridge employs his drawings to create animated films, a modern medium.
4. Kentridge builds up his films with single drawings in charcoal and pastel, which he alters with erasure, additions, and redrawings that are photographed. Instead of being constructed from drawings, Kentridge's films are constructed from photographs of drawings in process.
