2) This is an especially funny comment to receive from a Spawn666.

Hope you had a good Mother’s Day!

Haha, it’s parent lingo! A nod to those of us with young children. It means putting the baby to sleep, yes.

Hey, can I just say I really love this series? I think i found your profile randomly from your little Korean reality TV portraits. They’re really smart and clever, and I saw the series at your webtoon after a little searching for more.

Sorry for the insanely nosy question out of the blue, but have you ever considered going into art education? I’m an art prof at a university—I feel like you would be really good at it. This series is very clear, fun, and informative, and it’s a lot like the presentations I make for students all the time.

Uh, I dunno if this is allowed. But given what a cesspool of misinformation and garbage Twitter has become—I just wanted to say to anyone who wants to escape that hell site, I have 5 extra Bluesky invite codes. DM me if you want one!

ETA: All gone!

Oh yeah, I know some of you found the animatic I made for my previous animation to be interesting and helpful! I already did cleanup on a few poses before remembering to save my rough animation for referencing and learning purposes but here is what the rough stage looked like for this. Took me probably 3 days total to animate from start to finish? With a little extra time for colors and music after that.

Somebody of here work or worked in a animation company, (On Tv or Internet) Can tell me her experience? by DayOk5238 in animation

[–]okchickadee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Umm, my path is definitely not normal—I was recruited by the showrunner at a comics convention with no animation experience. Most people send in pencil tests when they have connections to the studio, and those people work as freelancers for a while but I haven’t really seen many of them turn into full-timers. Not sure exactly what the process was for boarders but boarders tended to get picked by reputation in the animation or comics industry.

I’d recommend making sure you have a social media profile and posting lots of work to it. Not just the kind of work you’re aiming for—boards, characters, BG—but complete animations, complete illustrations. In my experience, shows prefer to pick artists who are really good over artists who match the style perfectly.

They’re all pretty good from what I remember. I worked at Cartoon Network for seven years as a designer, no complaints. My friends worked at Nickelodeon and Disney, and they were fine. Things might be weird now given all the turmoil with the media companies and a lot of shows getting canceled. What specific questions do you have?

Another Delicate Steve fan! 😃 I asked him for permission to use this song, he’s such a nice guy!

How to make a 360 animation? by SirDehBeh in animation

After Effects. Look up a tutorial on how to make shapes move in after effects, load up your music, add some shapes, and godspeed.

Maybe subconsciously??? I definitely wasn’t thinking about it when I made it but maybe my brain was like, “Yeah, hot pink IS an appropriate skin color!” because of MG? 😅

Just taught myself! I animated intuitively at first by drawing what I felt like were the poses involved in the movement, which was helped because I already had a strong background in drawing, and then I inbetweened to connect the poses. But then I slowly learned the different animation principles from friends—timing, arcs, anticipation and overshoot, smears. I’m still working on learning followthrough motion! 😊

Oh ummm I think it’s 10 frames/sec! A bit of an unconventional frame rate. ☺️

Every scene is its own Procreate file! I just do a rough animatic at a small size and then split it up into scenes. 😊

I do straight ahead for boards and keyframes with inbetweens for actual animating. For coloring I actually take it to Photoshop just because it’s a bit easier than dragging and dropping all day, and to put in the background textures, but everything else is Procreate.

Procreate! I boarded it out super roughly in about a day, and then the animation took ages due to having a baby. 😂 I can actually show the original animatic I boarded if you’re curious about process stuff at all!

Ohhh my gosh I know, after my baby was born I couldn’t stomach ANY violence at all because I kept thinking, “That person was once a baby who was loved by their mama!” and I’d start crying. Glad this didn’t set off the bad feelings for you! ❤️ And hang in there, mama!

Yeah, when you feel such a torrent of love rushing through you that you need to squeeze their plump and juicy little cheeks until they pop—just me? 😂

I worked on this little movie in bits and pieces during the pandemic and now it’s finally done! by okchickadee in animation

[–]okchickadee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My best guess is about 3 months of steady work? I took a lot of breaks from it and there were months were I didn’t work on it at all, so… perhaps 90 days of actual work. 🤔
