not that I'm really big on drawing lately but I wonder if I should change the program I use because I can't tell if FireAlpaca sucks or if I just can't draw good lines

@tiffany To be honest, whatever program you are most comfortable with is probably the program you'll do your best drawings in.

Finished drawing today and realised I still had my initial MSPaint doodle open. (It's still a work in progress) http://pny.lv/0jz2a

How can I work somewhere like Studio Yotta when I've been staring at a blank canvas all day with no ideas. I can't even improve my own portfolio

My final result for my degree is a 2:1, which is alright. It's what I figured I'd get anyway
Thursday, 09-Jun-16 15:21:26 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation Thanks, now if I could only get a creative job so it'll all feel worth it.
-
@scoot Have you considered applying with Studio Yotta? It'd certainly be a good way to get your foot in the door.
-
@mrmattimation Their standard of quality and ability vastly exceeds my own. If I felt like I was good enough I'd totally apply though.

Finally had to resort to selling my stuff to make ends meet. Cool.

I finished my film with 10 days to spare. Finally, I can die.

@thelastgherkin rip me
-
@scoot Oh neat, I didn't notice the dash from earlier. Congrats on finishing everything, I'm proud of you.
-
OK I give up, it's 3am and I managed to complete nearly all my animation. Good night.

Here's a pretty convincing argument against animating in Photoshop. http://pny.lv/0dqd5

@mrmattimation It took 10 minutes to open one of my files :)
-
Literally can't watch back what I've made, preview is playing back at 10fps in Photoshop. Nice job Adobe!!
Wednesday, 20-Apr-16 01:20:42 UTC from web -
If I can get some minor edits my tutors requested done before I fall asleep, I'll be officially done with animating. Sorry to ramble on here about this because it's boring as hell, but I need to vent a little
Wednesday, 20-Apr-16 01:06:00 UTC from web-
@scoot Eh, you're fine, I'm constantly talking about what I'm doing and posting WIP stuff nobody cares about.

26 seconds of animation in one day~~~~~
Wednesday, 20-Apr-16 00:43:29 UTC from web-
@scoot Ah, I wasn't sure if there was a way to ask "are you on 1s or 2s?" without literally asking that, but I guess not. I'll keep that in mind for the future. And yeah, from what I've read even in relatively expensive animations 1s are reserved for really high energy scenes.
-
@narwhal I could be wrong, but I believe classic Disney was on 1s, which is why it looks so beautiful and smooth. Nobody can really afford it anymore.
-
@scoot I think it was a mixture of 1s and 2s, but on a frame by frame level hardly anything can really match up to those classic Disney flicks as far as animation fluidity is concerned. I know Richard Williams animated most of his work on 1s, but he's run into tons of financial and development issues over his career. 2s are really the most economical choice these days (though for lots of anime they end up being mostly on 3s due to more meticulous designs and really tight budgets).

My cat has been sniffing the edge of my tablet for a while and I'm unsure what it is he's trying to accomplish http://rainbowdash.net/url/838461

@mrmattimation I'm still using a busted old Bamboo tablet :(
-
@scoot It's a Cintiq Companion 2! I can use it at my PC like a regular monitor but when I'm not at my desk I can take it around with me and work basically anywhere. It's very, very useful but it was also very, very expensive.
-
@mrmattimation If I had any money at all, I'd get a good tablet
-
-
Really ramped it out today, only 2 or 3 shots left to animate. No sleep 'til it's over.

@scoot Aww shucks, that means a lot to me. Thanks. http://rainbowdash.net/attachment/838457

This little callback shows how much better I am at drawing this guy now. http://pny.lv/0dq4k
Wednesday, 20-Apr-16 00:00:28 UTC from web -
In related news I am not drawing anything for a little while. I am sick of drawing.
Tuesday, 19-Apr-16 23:43:07 UTC from web -
Despite all my complaining earlier I managed to get 10 seconds of animation done today and am getting very close to finishing the actual animating part of the film. Shame I also need to do colouring/backgrounds/editing/sound...
Tuesday, 19-Apr-16 20:38:04 UTC from web-
@scoot Well at least it's one less thing to worry about, eh?

Just tweened a camera move to save time, I feel dirty.

Photoshop is making my life really fun. If I use the select tool, it refuses to let me change tools for several minutes. This is the sort of feature I've always needed, thanks Adobe.
Tuesday, 19-Apr-16 15:52:01 UTC from web -
Drew one new frame today then felt exhausted, I hope I can actually finish in time.
Tuesday, 19-Apr-16 13:12:20 UTC from web -
Also my website is about as finished as it's gonna get, aside from adding my film when that's done. (http://pny.lv/0bhwj)

Had to drop £20 on business cards, since having some is a mandatory part of the course. Great.

Made a showreel of my work today. Pretty scary stuff, since that's what potential employers will be looking at. I hope it's enough
Sunday, 10-Apr-16 18:58:17 UTC from web -
Computer just crashed and I lost 4 seconds of animation. Cool. So much for getting 10 seconds done today

Spent an hour trying to force myself to sleep and yet here I am. I have to be in Uni tomorrow god damn it

Looks like another sleepless night, cool. I love insomnia
Monday, 04-Apr-16 02:05:45 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation I gave it a go.
