GIF sneak peeks...!
this past week was mostly spent planning on paper, so there isnt too much to show GIF-wise, but thats not to say no progress was made! things should be picking up this week!
2020-07-19 18:37:47 +0000 UTC View Post~10 second WIP sneak peek of the next animation!!
thats right!! the next animation is of "Soft Fuzzy Man" by Lemon Demon!!
the animation will cover this section of the song up to the very end, so itd be about 1 minute and 15 seconds long!
a thing i wanted to mess around with more was animated backgrounds, so something i wanna do for this animation (which you can see a bit of here) i...
2020-07-12 14:39:01 +0000 UTC View Postso whats the holdup?? (a general update + some GIF scraps)
so ive been itching to get back into longer-term animations, problem is that picking the right song has been a bit of a task!
the past 2 weeks ive just been all over the place trying to figure out a good song to animate, which has not been easy.. namely right now i want to avoid doing something "wholesome", as well as do something i find a...
2020-07-05 21:02:38 +0000 UTC View Postso what now?? (video preview of unfinished thing + progress update!)
right now im in the process of sketching out an animation of this audio! : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84v5R4aQ-4c which will be the full audio, meaning it'd be a 1 minute long animation! i'm not sure if i'd necessarily be finishing this animation within the ...
2020-07-01 17:49:17 +0000 UTC View Postalmost there!!!! (only backgrounds left!!) + some rough color scheme previews.....
YAHHOO!!!! if all goes well, backgrounds should only take a day to finish!! which means the animation may be coming tomorrow or the day after!
the images seen above are some of the .pdn files i used to decide the colors + rough out the backgrounds for this animation!
2020-06-21 13:02:43 +0000 UTC View Postthe rough animation is finished!!!!!
yippy!!!!!
now to start work on cleanup, colors, and then finally backgrounds!! theres a chance of me finishing it all this week, but i expect it to all be done some time next week ^_^
2020-06-17 18:53:45 +0000 UTC View Postmore WIP gifs!! + progress update + whats next?
the rough animation for this project is very nearly complete!! only 4 seconds left to board and animate (which is the amount i get done on a good day!)
as for whats next, as always im not entirely sure, but i have a few ideas! one of which would be an animation of this audio: 2020-06-14 15:33:05 +0000 UTC View Post
GIF sneak peek!
progress was a bit slow this week, but things are picking back up again, the rough animation should be over 50% complete as of today!
2020-06-07 18:13:39 +0000 UTC View Post~11 second preview of the NEXT ANIMATION!!
the animation i plan releasing some time between June 15th and June 30th is of "Ladyflash" by The Go! Team! this is a bit more experimental than what i usually do, plus theres a few cuts shown in this clip that go unfinished for now since they need editing in post so it might look a bit strange for now, but i hope you like the end result...
2020-05-30 12:45:46 +0000 UTC View Postnew stop motion setup + sample gif!
ive always wanted to try out stop motion, and i thought now would be as good a time as any to try it out!
whether or not id actually be using this for a full animation is yet to be determined.... but i might use it for a shot or two in the animation for June!
pictured is my closet, which i cleared room out to barely squeeze 1 desk in...
2020-05-24 22:52:37 +0000 UTC View Postan experiment in editing from ~2 weeks ago.....
this video itself isnt all that secret (its in my public unlisted playlist) but here i can offer a bit of explanation!
i recently downloaded adobe premiere just to toy around with and see if theres anything interesting i would be able to do that could be handy/interesting to use in an animation, but also to see if i could achieve this effe...
2020-05-21 16:42:35 +0000 UTC View Postrough notebook storyboard sketches for Modify!!!
as far as i know, this isnt even the complete amount of what sketches there are for Modify (i have another notebook thats full of random sketches instead of being a dedicated notebook for animation storyboards), theres a whole lot here!
2020-05-19 16:45:41 +0000 UTC View Postvarious rough notebook storyboard scans for CAKE!!!
ive been doing these for all of my animations since "Modify" in a single notebook! they are very rough sketches of storyboards i do just to get the idea down.. ive shown some of these before for Modify on twitter, but here's the complete scan for CAKE! i plan on uploading the scans for Haircut and Reaganomics soon today, as well as potentially M...
2020-05-19 15:58:10 +0000 UTC View Postthe new animation is FINISHED!!!! look forward to it on the 15th!!!!
2020-05-13 20:36:16 +0000 UTC View Postthe rough animation is FINISHED!!!! (+15 seconds of video!!)
YAHHHOOO!!!! theres not much to say now, this next week will be spent doing lip sync, clean-up, colors, and the backgrounds!
all of these processes take the least amount of time, so its pretty much guaranteed that the animation will be released on the 15th!
2020-05-10 21:18:01 +0000 UTC View Posta couple WIP gifs!
progress is coming along a bit slowly but surely! the rough animation should be finishing up either this or next week, which would line me up for finishing by the 15th!
more specific numbers....
the full animation requires 507 frames to be finished
at the moment, 314 of these 507 frames (62%!) are bo...
9 second sneak peak of the new animation...!
no lip syncing on the cat character (yet!) since this is a shorter animation i just plan on doing it all in one go at some point, there's gonna be an intro to this animation Buuut i just decided to start here since this is where most of my ideas are for at the moment!
2020-04-27 01:10:18 +0000 UTC View Postan update!!! (plus a short preview!!)
i think ultimately what this past month or so has shown me is that at the moment, i'm not ready to dive right back into doing longer 2+ minute ambitious animations, but thats okay!! i know i've been kinda jumping around from project to project lately, but i plan on finishing this one!
i still plan on finishing my animation of "Reaganomics"...
2020-04-18 16:40:18 +0000 UTC View Posta little update as to whats been going on!
hey its been a while!! sorry about that!
generally i try to post something every week, though for the past few weeks ive been going through a bit of a rough burnout, so i've been taking a break from art and animation for a while, and have recently been making efforts to break out of it
that being said, i do i have a special little so...
2020-03-31 18:16:03 +0000 UTC View Postso....... a change of plans!!
a few days ago i decided, screw it!!! i've wanted to animate "Reaganomics" for such a long time and i didnt want to wait any longer, so from now on i'm working on REAGANOMICS by lemon demon!!! (specifically the 2012 version, which can be heard here!! https://www.you...
2020-03-13 20:09:08 +0000 UTC View Postthe "monthly sketch" tier is closing down for good!
personally i found myself stressing over them more than necessary and would rather avoid that + spend that energy on the animations.. that being said, thank you so much to everyone who's been part of it and i hope you enjoyed your sketches!!
2020-02-28 16:18:52 +0000 UTC View Postwork on the next animation has begun: "Haircut"!! (+ sneak peek at some boards)
the next animation i will be doing is one of the full endings of HAIRCUT! also technically by lemon demon! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUIu6_eTkjY)
this is the ending i plan to animate, if youd like to listen for yourself..... (not the exact audio i u...
2020-02-27 17:16:42 +0000 UTC View Postmodify is out! but what next?
at the moment, im not really sure!
for a while i've wanted to animate "Party on the Moon" by Lemon Demon, though coming hot off the heels of "Modify" i feel like some other songs by him have caught my attention more that i'd be interested in animating... namely i want to make full animations for both "Knife Fight" and one of the full story...
