hello! i really love your art & animations! i'm not sure if someone has asked this already but: what do you use to animate? & how long have you been animating for? do u know of any tutorials/classes? (i'm a beginner learning on my own atm!)

hi ! thanks a lot :D

Software wise it depends, procreate for the little sketchy animations, toon boom story board and harmony for bigger projects, sometimes blender even ^^ and unity for work, but its special for video games, i even animated a lot on photoshop when i started !!! never again !!!

i composite in after effect or premiere, depending on what needs to be done, sometimes both for big stuff, but if youre learning animation, focus on the basics before the aesthetics (you can fumble your way into compositing way more easily than anim)

ive been animating on and off for 5 years, 3 of wich were in animation school (during which we surprisingly did not animate much lmao) i got this film out of it tho lol

as for tutos....

i cannot recomend enough The Animator's survival guide, you ccan find the free pdf on the internet, and a bunch of people explaining and showcasing it on yt, its basically the bible for 2d animation

this vid is also very good to get a feel of animation, and the basics, the guy also has v good classes on his channel

but basically the best way to learn is to animate ! a lot ! and look at animations you like, download them and look at them frame by frame : how does the timing work, how doess that character moves, etc

ACT IT OUT ! FILM YOURSELF IN YOUR ROOM DOING STUPID SHIT ! ANIMATE IT ! (believe me, im as sad as you that this is the answer to good anim... but it is...)

and what kind of anim do you like to make ! fights ? chara acting ? sfx ? theres a LOT in which you can specialize (if making a living out of it is your goal) so play around in a cheap/free/cracked software and see what you like and what works for you !

animation is a very complete field : you gotta know perspective, anatomy, acting, composition, exercising any of these skills ultimately makes your animations better !

3d anim is a whole other can of worm, but (IMO) still requires 2d basics,

TO CONCLUDE :

just go ham on doing weird shit and consume, consume,consume animation : short gobelin/carlarts films, all of richard williams filmography, obscure russian animated movies from the 70's, youll ALWAYS learn something, thats how you learn best

Happy creating !! animation is AMAZING the way i felt the first time i made something that MOVES ? unparralleled

Inktober day 7, a lil tribute to "An absolutely remarkable thing", Hank Green's debut novel that I just finished and completely loved. Such a mesmerizing gem of a story. I've been a Nerdfighter for years and had high expectations of this book, and I'm still blown away. A sequel can't come fast enough. 😍😘🙃 . . . #selandriansart #inktober2018 #inktober #inkdrawing #cuteart #aartart #aart #anabsolutelyremarkablething #nerdfighter #cuterobot #carlart #kawaii #zendoodles #doodleart #doodleartist #geekgirl #bookstagram #booklover #bookaddict #hankgreen #geekart #instaartist https://www.instagram.com/p/BopJ_okgoTZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=9pja9ya7mff9

I always looked on Pinterest for my typography but I used the website Carlarts Poster Archive https://posters.calarts.edu/?s=Junki%20Hong 

I found an artist that has a unique art style named Junki Hong. Their posters could be described as overwhelming and bizarre which is quite different to my personal style. However, their use of colour and texture is appealing and very unique. Within the posters they use a liquified and jagged type face which contrast with the modern bold typeface that trending now. Hong also uses patterns and illustrations to add colour within their work.

So this took longer than expected. It was a collaboration project with my friend Bits from the GTA and youtube. I just gotta warn you guys the music is really quiet because of a glitch we had editing the audio but that’s fine. The thumbnail was made by my friend CarlArts. Welp, Enjoy!

Reflection: Places of Mind

In this film, I have based on the stop motion and film technique of Henry Sellick, renowned director, screenwriter, producer, and animator who studied at Carlarts and worked for Disney. However, the original idea was taken from the concept art that I had developed previously.

The name of my film was based on the concept of Syncope. According to Silva(2014),syncope is the sudden loss of consciousness, associated with the inability to maintain postural tone, with immediate and spontaneous recovery.

Regarding the design of secondary characters and the plot, I found the inspiration on scientific articles I read.

For the design of jellyfish brains: I was inspired by an article I read about "organoids" in particular about laboratory-created brains, scientists believe that laboratory-created brains could become conscious and they contemplate the possibility of reviving the brains of deceased people (Delbert,2020). 

For the design of the black cyclops bulls: I base on an article I read about dark matter and its possible relationship with the first black holes that scientists believe existed at the beginning of the origin of the universe.

For main character design and supporting characters: I took as a graphic reference the style of character design used in the film Hotel Transylvania by director Genndy Tartakovsky under the artistic direction of Ron Lukas.

From Selick's work in Giant Peach, I have used his way of texturing the characters and the highly detailed fantasy settings of his films.

From this task, I learned that the stop motion technique requires more planning and time to polish artistic and technical details. I think it is a problem to deal with such tight schedules for the presentation of elaborate films, according to an article I read, even though Selick has worked with all kinds of animation techniques, his work is very meticulous and requires a process of post-production and a work team to achieve the detailed designs that he achieves in his puppets, stages, and film productions. The good thing about experimenting with this technique is that I have been able to identify my personal animation style no matter what media he use. Despite the difficulties that I still face in the field of structuring my film, I think that practicing, and leaving my comfort zone is something that will help me to enrich my knowledge as an animator.

“The power of corruption my dear.”

“C-Corruption?”

“All this is incredibly saddening, and you were so close to ripping the crown from my head. Your little trip in the road may not have harmed you, but it surely crushed the lives of those to small too defend themselves from your unforgiving fall.”

Okay, sorry for that edgy intro! I thought it’d be fun to show off some of the story I’m planning. How does this relate you ask? Corruption! Emotional, and, or physical! :D I really needed practice making and designing corrupted characters, and my great friend CarlArts (his art is amazing, and I love him) gave me a messy sketch and I took it from there. My immediate thought was “hey, you know…Gaster is probably so emotionally and physically distraught… Let’s make him a terrifying monster!” And thus, corrupt Glitchtale Gaster was born. Enjoy!
