I built a #characteranimator puppet of everyone’s favourite reality tv heel. If you do a good Trump and would like to lend your voice to this goon dm me a voice memo or video. Offer open to all ages, sexes, and ethnicities. I had considered using his voice but @cubstudio have already done that (and they have done it perfectly as they are amazing). You should check out the brilliance that is allthetrumpfacts.com But yeah, he’s an Adobe Character Animator puppet so his mouth moves to make words, his head eyes and eyebrows move and his hair moves stiffly in place like a well attached wig. His tiny hands move too. He was drawn in #procreate and then pieced together in #photoshop before I rigged him in Character Animator. #design #animation #trump #drumph #donaldtrump #45 #election2020 #voiceacting #impressions #comedy #puppet #performancecapture #motioncapture https://www.instagram.com/p/CDS-7BFnbT2/?igshid=1tj5c8wcl3i3n

I find myself making stuff on the move a bunch - there’s been a rise in well crafted creative mobile apps that make it easier (but also I just get my computer out on the train too). I really like it. I like the restriction it places on the process (both in terms of time and complexity) and how it doesn’t have to be polished or perfect. So I wanted to see if I could get a hashtag going so that I can see other people doing this too. If you’re making stuff in transit (plane, train, tram, bus, car - preferably not while driving) post it up with the #madeintransit - finished, unfinished, whatever If you’re not - maybe give it a go? It’s a great way to hone your skills, flex your brain, and it gives you this feeling like you’ve spent that limbo time well. #creative #hashtag #project #make #brain #tech #apps #travel #time #art #test #trial #workinprogress https://www.instagram.com/p/ByEBEcWHQWW/?igshid=1c6bvk1hjwksp

This course is part of Adobe’s teacher education program but it’s available to ANYBODY... and it is totally 100% FREE. Sign up at bit.ly/learnpremiere2019 - still plenty of time to join in and get a lot out of it. #adobe #premierepro #aftereffects #video #plan #storyboard #film #edit #howto #rules #tips #content #learn #create #make #30degreerule https://www.instagram.com/p/BwBMwTjnEci/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=815msjrqtmkh

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY I made this last year but seems appropriate for today. If you want cool bun on anything you can get em here: bit.ly/surpluscool (and I’ll happily donate my portion of the profits to @whiteribbonaust ) #internationalwomensday #iwd2019 - ~ - ~ - ~ - ~ - My friend Jacq is cool – recently we discovered there wasn’t an emoji out there that communicated this cool properly. Something that said this lady is cool and relaxed but takes no shit. So this is for @newjaxcity8 and my pitch to @apple – I think #coolbun deserves a look in in the next iOS update. For all the cool bunned cool mums. If you want cool bun on something I've popped her up in the surplus weird store: bit.ly/surpluscool #cool #design #custom #emoji #sunglasses #😎 #women #ladies #girls #mum #mom #mumlife #momlife #bun #hair #takenoshit #apple #ios #update #representationmatters #representation https://www.instagram.com/p/BuuZqkentEe/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=z8cenhhwwb60

Final live of Visual Effects for Educators was all about putting together all the skills we’ve covered in one video. This video features motion tracking, green screening, keyframe animation, 3d space, and colour correction (along with a few more effects). It was supposed to be a sci fi video but I went off on a tangent. 😎🍑 Course is open til March 8 so still plenty of time to enrol and learn some simple (but cool) visual effects tricks: bit.ly/learnVFX #adobe #aftereffects #learn #education #create #video #cooltricks #3d #space #greenscreen #color #colour #colorcorrection #effects #camera #motiontracking #weird #surreal #butts #buttsbuttsbutts https://www.instagram.com/p/BuI5U97nqIu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gypf65yy7qwc

That idea that seems to dissipate just as it’s forming; when you realise that you bright idea is something that already exists or you realise it can’t possibly work and it’s like you were brilliant just for a second (and then reality sets in). I made this single line icon yesterday at work for a project I’m working on and I was so pleased with myself for thinking of it I just had to animate it. #idea #think #genius #lightbulbmoment #design #icon #line #animate #animation #loop #light https://www.instagram.com/p/BuCXj84nrV_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=10gfs0ofc1cg1

Class 4 of Visual Effects for Educators was all about building the appearance of three dimensional space out of 2 dimensional assets. This is just textures, masks and effects (no footage, no 3d elements). Was trying to make something that felt like the opening credits to a show - I can’t image what this show would be though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ / open to suggestions. Still plenty of time to enrol in this course and learn some simple (but cool) visual effects tricks: bit.ly/learnVFX #adobe #aftereffects #learn #education #create #video #cooltricks #3d #space #texture #layers #mask #effects #threedimensional #tv #credits #titles #pitch https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt_8GgJDPVA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=47la5otybguu
