hey, i just wanted to say that a few years ago when i was questioning, really confused + depressed, and feeling like i didn’t have a support system, this blog helped me SO much. i’m not sure if you still take asks but i submitted a ton trying to understand my place in the community and who i was, and it helped me more than i can put into words. i’m much older and nb now and so so happy, but i wouldn’t be that way without you. thank you <3

so glad i could help you out kai!! i always love getting messages like this that show that i do actually make a difference haha. sending so much love <33

hi so i’ve been wondering how you make ur gifs? i’ve been meaning to for a while and i figured there’s no better person to ask than the one that inspired me 🥹 if you’re open to giving tips or starter suggestions, my messages are open 💞

hi!!!!! and plssss tysm ur too kind!!!!!

i keep it pretty basic bc i dont have a lot of time (this is why everyone should rb the people who make really beautiful sets bc think of the time theyre giving us <33) but main tips for basic editing:

use photoshop and 1080p. (i also use 2160p but its depends on ur computer. it could wash out, which requires a lot of color correcting. when starting out, 1080p is going to be better). for 1080p, if the size is under 1.5gb, its probably lost quality during compression so keep the file size in mind.

mpv is the go to for screencapping and im sure there are tutorials that explain exactly how bc its a little technical ur first time. if u have a mac that becomes even more complicated. ive known other gifmakers who just screen record instead bc of that and honestly i cant really tell the difference most of the time 💀 so choose whichever works for u!

cropping - everyone has their own preference. the closer to 16:9 the easier it'll be to keep the quality intact. so if u have media thats older and mb only 720p, u might consider using that ratio. default width for tumblr is 540px

ALWAYS SHARPEN!!!!!! this is the most important step. for a while i couldn't upload sharpened gifs and it was the worst moments of my editing life. after u crop the gif and set the frame time (usually 0.05), convert to a video timeline and convert all your frames into a smart object. thats when u can use the smart sharpen filter. my settings are usually 500%, 0.4, 0%, remove gaussian blur. then i do another smart sharpen at 20%, 20.0, 0%. you'll want to experiment with this bc it depends

coloring is hard to give advice on bc it really depends on what the source media is. if u dont have ps experience i would go here and there are so many amazing creators who have posted help for people learning to color!! and then u can figure out what method u like best from there :)

those are the main things i use when making gifs. but i also want to tell anyone who asks for tips that sometimes the quality of a tv ep or movie is just bad!!! or the coloring isnt completely fixable because they used some weird filter and thats okay!!!!! just have fun with it!!!!! i dont think 90% of tumblr really notices the small things that we do when making gifs and thats a relief <3

lmk if u have other questions and wishing u a great saturday!!!!

Okay 3 things

1. I was thinking about an aroace Sonic who says things that can be taken as wildly flirty/romantic but he just means them genuinely. “You have beautiful eyes, I keep getting distracted while looking at them,” not cause he’s interested romantically in them but because eyes can be really cool and pretty man I dunno what to tell you he likes looking at cool things and he thinks his friends are neat. “You’re the most beautiful person here,” because he really thinks that, he loves his friends

2. Sonic randomly dropping heartfelt genuine comments on his friends out of the blue completely blindsiding them and then moves on like nothing happened while they’re left going ?????? Bonus points if he does something immensely stupid or jerkish just before or immediately afterwards and they can’t tell if he was serious or not with the compliment (yes he was)

3. Sonic usually being so allergic to truly vulnerable moments that when he expresses something heartfelt randomly Tails thinks he’s been stabbed or something and does not believe him when he reassures him that he’s fine he’s fine he’s not dying yeesh

I know you were just ordering a special smoothie, but I kind of...I thought that you said you loved me, so... 'Cause I did. It's just a loaded drink name but...wait, what? Yeah I wasn't ordering when I said that. I said, "I love you" to you. Must have just slipped out. Oh. But it was an accident. Yeah...but it slipped out because that's how I feel. I think of it all the time. I was gonna say it tonight over dinner, but apparently I couldn't wait. Because I love you. Sick, sick, sick. I love you, too.

I love your art so much but also something about your art style specifically is like honest to god crack. Could I request a chole drawing of some sort? Literally anything there just hasn't been enough Chloe (and Chloe and Max) art on my timeline as of late

Hi! I’ve just discovered (and subsequently fallen in love with) your art! I started with your narumitsu stuff— I used to play the cases a-la-carte with a friend, and I’m finally working through the games on my own (I’m in Turnabout Big Top now)— and anyway I’ve just been scrolling down your blog and absolutely loving all of your work.

Your style is so expressive and evocative while retaining everything that makes the characters recognizable and charming, not just in Ave Attorney stuff but in the variety of fandoms for which you illustrate.

I just felt compelled to take a minute to express how wonderful I think your work is!

Oh that is so sweet of you to say thank you so much!!
