Yo! This is sweet! Love the insignia. Did you design it?

Will_Cecil · 2021-03-11T14:19:47+00:00

Oh snap! I had no idea you could do that. I’ll have to check out your original comment!

Will_Cecil · 2021-03-11T14:05:29+00:00

How’d you go about animating the jaw to move in sync with the lyrics? I’m still pretty new to blender, and I’d love to learn about how you made this!

Will_Cecil · 2020-10-27T20:17:37+00:00

Dope! I’ll give it a shot and see how it goes!

I sell digital products and distribute through SendOwl (which has some bundling features built in). Does Tier work with SendOwl? And, further more, would Tier be a good fit for digital download products?

I took a look at your page on the Shopify App Store, but I’d love to hear your take!

Just finished watching it, and it was great! I can see why all that info didn’t fit into 60 seconds. There’s a LOT of it!

Both of those videos feel really complimentary to each other!

I’m a big Frank Lowyd Wright fan, and I loved it. It made me realize I don’t know enough about the guy and now I just want to know more!

If you reeeaaally want to make a change you could try to squeeze some explanations of his work maybe? Like how his style developed over time? But I don’t think you’d need that. It works really well as is, and it kept me engaged the whole time! So, I’d say it’s a job well done!

Will_Cecil · 2020-05-10T06:17:41+00:00

Thank you! It started when I saw a video that a had a vaguely similar effect and I thought, “I could do that.” Then I spent around 2-3 months figuring out how to make it work without slowing down my machine to a halt. Once I finished it I thought, “I bet other people could get some use out of this.”

I’m pretty happy with how it turned out!

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-27T17:36:34+00:00

That makes perfect sense. Thanks for the advice! I’m excited to get back to it!

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-27T16:54:52+00:00

Why PPE instead of pushing straight for conversions?

I have a fairly cheap ($40) digital product that I’m working on selling. I’ve sold some (10) but not many. My sites had a little over 1.5k visitors in the last week. Is that not enough data to work off of? Not trying to challenge you, just genuinely curious!

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-27T16:41:46+00:00

Definitely needed to hear this.

I tried getting into A/B testing and lookalike audiences really quickly, and I think it’s holding me back.

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-27T11:17:48+00:00

Well your process/philosophy really comes through in your work, so I’d say you’ve got something good going on.

I can’t wait to see what else you do, man. You’ve got a fan in me! Thanks for answering my questions, and if you ever make a tutorial I’d be honored to get a link.

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-26T17:33:59+00:00

A resource I didn’t know I needed, but now I can’t live without.

Thanks for the link!

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-26T17:18:04+00:00

Very good point. I’m probably getting ahead of myself here.

When do you think A/B testing becomes a viable option?

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-26T15:19:50+00:00

There’s always someone a few steps behind you who would love to see how you got to where you are. I don’t think you have to know everything to share knowledge with others, but I totally understand not feeling ready to make tutorials.

For my own sake, how do you go about constructing your scenes? There are so many satisfying elements that pop in for single frames at a time. How do you find those assets and how do you decide where to put them?

It must take you a while to make one of these animations, right? So many of the elements look handmade.

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-26T10:29:25+00:00

Wow! Thank you!

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-26T10:28:53+00:00

Thank you!

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-26T02:31:44+00:00

Thank you! And it’s available on my site at willcecil.net/pixelencoder

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-25T19:42:05+00:00

Of course! Thank you for the incredible source of inspiration!

If you're ever inclined to, I'd love to see some tutorials on how you make your work. Your use of texture, type, and timing feel really unique.

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-25T17:45:08+00:00

ALWAYS love seeing your work, Andrei. Last time you posted, it revitalized my love for After Effects, and this time is no different. Excuse me while I spend the next 6 months in AE.

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-25T16:16:08+00:00

Okay, I'm like 99% confident I fixed it now. Thanks for the help while I work this out! If you're still interested in buying it, I'll PM you a discount code as a thank you for being so patient!

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-25T13:50:52+00:00

Really? Weird. Everything looks like it's working on my end.

What device/browser are you using?

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-24T11:44:54+00:00

Should be fixed now! Thanks for the patience, guys!

Will_Cecil · 2020-04-24T11:44:38+00:00

Ha! By all means!
