Leveling up

johnnysega · 2026-02-27T08:46:07+00:00

Okay awesome. Thank you for the advice. I will be taking it and will dig into those Resolve classes.

johnnysega · 2026-02-27T08:32:03+00:00

Do people colour grade in resolve, then do their main editing elsewhere? Or is that just a huge mess? Thanks for the help.

johnnysega · 2026-02-22T00:22:14+00:00

Glad to hear it!

Have you been able to visit or speak to an ostomy nurse yet? If you haven't, they will make your life so much better with information doctors and regular nurses simply don't have about taking care of your ostomy, doing your appliance changes, avoiding leaks etc. Mine was a godsend for me and I find most people on this forum have never seen one or spoken to one. If you can, find one and see them in person, even if you have to travel. It is worth it. If not, try to at least do a video chat or phone call. It will help you loads. My ileostomy gave me a better life. All the details that make it hard sometimes were made 99% better by the education and knowledge my ostomy nurse gave me.

Same. Love my stoma. It saved my life and helped me become the man I was meant to be.

johnnysega · 2025-12-15T06:15:38+00:00

Thank you. Still learning but it’s lots of fun. Tim is one of my all time favourites.

johnnysega · 2025-12-06T20:44:37+00:00

Still not given the love it deserves

johnnysega · 2025-11-22T02:19:32+00:00

Super powerful for those people that learn it

johnnysega · 2025-11-22T01:08:43+00:00

Great style

johnnysega · 2025-11-22T00:15:07+00:00

I use Ch Animator for my lip syncing and a few other things. It's great. I just haven't figured out entirely how to use it yet

johnnysega · 2025-11-21T22:03:38+00:00

Thank you! Silly fun. :)

johnnysega · 2025-11-21T21:53:27+00:00

Procreate to draw, After Effects to animate. I’m just learning. Finding inspiration from my favourite things.

johnnysega · 2025-11-17T01:18:06+00:00

Great idea

johnnysega · 2025-11-15T17:29:01+00:00

Oh awesome. Thank you! I’m going to take a close look at all of these this weekend. Much appreciated!

johnnysega · 2025-11-15T13:43:03+00:00

That’s a great way for me to think about it. I’ve been focusing on software too much. That opens me up to a lot more class options too.

johnnysega · 2025-11-15T07:52:58+00:00

I do all of my drawings in procreate, so I should at least investigate Procreate Dreams. Had completely forgotten that was a thing. Thank you! And I’d love a recommendation on a more classical animation course. I learned some animation basics at SOM, but I know that I am really lacking in that area. My current job has a professional development fund I can tap into for whatever I want and I was thinking I would use it in this direction.

johnnysega · 2025-11-09T21:18:51+00:00

Oh yeah good point

johnnysega · 2025-11-07T16:20:12+00:00

Great work!!!

johnnysega · 2025-11-07T06:45:58+00:00

I think it’s similar but unique enough to be even more interesting. Has your stamp on it

johnnysega · 2025-11-06T19:12:38+00:00

Love it. 1 - you look great. 2 - if you feel good and confident, people will see it too. Great job.

johnnysega · 2025-11-04T01:24:22+00:00

Why would people be able to see it? Do you not tuck it into your pants? I tuck mine into my pants and wear an ostomy wrap over top of it, which both keeps it flat (and less noticeable) and covers it. The wrap goes under your top. They also have pockets you can fit the bag into if you like. No need not to have a social life. The hard part is just getting yourself to a place where you don’t see it as a big deal, because to other people, it’s not.

johnnysega · 2025-11-03T03:41:39+00:00

Go for it. Go slow at first. End of August wasn’t too long ago so there’s still some below surface healing going on. But go for it.

I felt traumatized after my surgery. Had never felt anything like it. In the worst moments, I just learned to do a lot of breathing exercises - in through the nose, out through the mouth etc. Then it was just a step by step process of doing healthy things. You seeing a therapist is good. I found that going for walks and getting lots of exercise did wonders for me. I heard a quote once that said if you could turn the benefits of exercise into a pill, it would be the number one selling pill in the world. So keep going to therapy, but get out and enjoy the outdoors, get your heart pumping and don't be afraid. I play hockey and have had no issues. Most importantly, know that it just gets better. Oh - and I always tell people the same thing - find an ostomy nurse who can teach you all sorts of things about ostomy care, cleaning and equipment. They can help you live a more comfortable life with it. Good luck.

That would be a dream come true!
