animation run cycle notes for my upcoming 2D animation video course package

A 20th century revue, as performed by Ivy Pepper.   The intended horizontal format is here. It’s got some flow that way. Reformatting for tumblr turned out to be a bit awkward. If anyone’s interested, I’ll add some notes to this post about the dances, art styles and fashions depicted here.  (The 60s are doubled up because they changed so much from one end to the other and I couldn’t decide what to focus on.) —————————— Lackadaisy is on Patreon - there’s extra stuff!

Wow...

Let's talk about mynoise.net

Have you ever been listening to Rainymood and thought, “Yeah, this is good … but it would be nice if I could customize the sound more, or if there was a little more choice.

Let me introduce you to MyNoise.

MyNoise is a customizable sounscape looper with so many options, even within each soundscape.  So say, for instance, you really love rain sounds when you write or study or relax.  Anything.  I know I’m a big fan of rain sounds.  They have a page for that.

But say you like really high, pattery rain, and LOTS of low thunder.  Here’s where MyNoise really stands out: you can customize that.  See those sliders with all the cute colors?  That is your equalizer. You can adjust the levels based on what you want to hear more and less of.  Here’s how it looks when you want high, pattery rain and low, rumbly thunder:

But say rain isn’t really your jam.  Say you want something a little more ambient, a little more background noise-y.  Something with people.  Well, they have customizable coffee house chatter that even has the levels listed for things like “kitchen,” “babble,” and “table”:

Or say you miss the ocean.

Or say you miss your cat.

Or say you miss your spaceship.

Or say you miss the dungeon where you and your team of scalawag adventurers used to explore and face off against, say, dragons.  In the dungeon.

This site is seriously so helpful, and those are just a fraction of every kind of sounscape the site has to offer.  The best part is that if you want to layer it with music (for instance, I’ll layer a playlist + rain + coffee shop if the scene I’m writing takes place in a coffee shop), you can adjust the master volume, meaning all of your layers stay at their respective volumes, just louder or quieter.

Enjoy!

Hrm, this can be a little hard for me to answer because everyone has certain specific difficulties but I can try to give my best answer in a few bullets - first and foremost congratulations because not everyone realizes they need improvement; you’re on you’re first steps to getting better when you recognize that there is something to improve. - second i wouldn’t take practice and drawing too seriously or anything. If you’re not having fun while doing so it’s going to make the entire process very grueling and boring. I think the best way to remedy this is to practice while mimicking a certain style you admire a lot. (this is kinda cliche but it is true. treating something as fun is a good way to confront actually doing it). -third, there’s no shame at all whatsoever in starting over to the basics. I think I’ve done so 5-6 times? And I can guarantee the competent professionals have done it at least a dozen times. You just need to make absolutely sure you crank a dictionary or ask someone about terminology/concepts you don’t get. In order to practice something, you have to be aware that it exists and understand it first.  -discord groups with some friends is a really good outlet for critiques. I highly suggest doing so. Take good constructive criticism like a good sport and you WILL improve. hope this helps!!
