I created an anime opening for my OCs

Finally ready to share where I’ve been the last couple of months. For my senior capstone, I created an animated opening for my OCs Dara and Daiki. I honestly had so much fun working on and dedicating my everything to this personal project for an entire semester. To my beloveds Daiki and Dara. This is just the beginning.

You can watch the full animation on YT here:

Zootopia 2: Animation & Cinematography Analysis

Z2 genuinely impressed me, and after watching this film, I wanted to analyze the intentions behind the animation and cinematography in certain sequences. When I talk about “animation” I’m referring to different departments of animation (i.e. story/storyboards, visual development (mainly color keys, costuming), and the animation’s acting choices). For cinematography, I’m referring to camera and composition choices. This isn’t a technical animation breakdown analysis, but if people want me to analyze the animation in certain scenes, then I’ll consider it!

To get this out of the way, I dislike Disney and its company practices (and most recently their whole shit with OpenAI). However, I can appreciate and celebrate whenever their artists and filmmakers have created good films with narratively compelling characters, such as Zootopia 2. I’ll be discussing real world politics at the end. If that bothers you, feel free to stop reading after PART 4 or don’t read this at all. 

This post contains spoilers for Zootopia 2, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, and The Bad Guys 1 and 2 as minor cinematography comparisons.

been considering to use this blog for analyses of whatever media i've been enjoying lately 🤔 i've always been on a weird spot with how i wanna use this acc and usually resorted to only posting my art, but thoughts/critiques on animated media i've watched i usually keep to the myself and friends

anyways, debating if i should do those kinds of analysis posts on this one or make an entirely new blog for whatever i wanna yap about

decided that i'd rather have a separate analysis blog: @wretchedwax

first analysis has been posted already :]

Jesus fucking christ I got it back. If you got a suspicious message/dm from me asking to contact a tumblr tech support via discord DO NOT CONTACT THEM. I got hacked and I just got my account back. But just in general FRIENDLY REMINDER TO BE WARY OF SCAMS. I honestly don’t know how I fell for it when it seemed SO OBVIOUS but if they’re trying to rush you into doing things and cause panic within you, that’s definitely a red flag and you should ALWAYS pause and question everything. A social media app or any app in general should never tell you that you need to do XYZ from a third party source. Lesson fucking learned holy shit.

If you happened to lose access to your account please contact Tumblr Support and submit a request from their official site. Apparently this phishing scam where an acc dms you “I falsely reported you and you need to contact this discord to dispute the claim and ask info about you” is VERY COMMON. So just submit a request and they should email you about how to get your account back. Thankfully I was able to get access again and change my password.

I feel incredibly stupid and awful for anyone who got taken advantage of while my account was compromised and I sincerely apologize for anyone who got affected by it. This was just another reminder to stay vigilant and always protect your safety on the internet.

SCAM ALERT!!

This artist ( @ garganov ) got her account hacked!!!!! The scammer dm'ed her using a similar message to the one I received "from her", got access to her account, and now they're using it to scam others!!!! Please be careful, and be aware of messages/comments like these!!!!
Screenshots and image descriptions below:

[Image description: message "from" tumblr user garganov: Hey can you message me? I have something important to tell you its about to your account, but i cant message you idk why??]

[Image description: twitter/x screenshots from user NovaNeonDream:

Tweet 1: "should’ve clocked it but I was gullible and stupid. If you get any messages like this on any platforms please be careful. Any social media app SHOULD NEVER contact you via a third party app."

Image annexed: "Hey uhhmm sorry for the mix-up! I accidentally reported your Tumblr account instead of the scammer who took $496 from me. Their profile looked similar, and in my panic, I even had friends report you too. I've contacted Tumblr Support to fix it. If possible, could you message them on Discord (ID: elituckerrtumblr) and mention the reports were a mistake? Please refer to case #40557035. I really regret this."

Tweet 2: "The person who scammed me was also the person who contacted me. So please be careful if you get any messages like this from me or anyone else."

Hiii I love your art so so much! I just wanted to ask if you do trad art as well? Or is it just digital art? How long have you been drawing digital art for? I've only ever drawn using traditional methods, and I also wanted to ask for any tips you could give me as a beginner in digital art. Thank you! :)

hi!! i started off doing traditional back in elementary but it was your typical doodling/painting for fun. when i was in university, i had formal training for traditional art fundamentals for ~2 years, but tbh my traditional art skills are dogshit compared to digital LOL. i've been drawing digitally since 2014 but didn't dedicate proper time and practice until 2015 (so ~10 years now). majority of what i know for digital art is self taught and learning off of other artists' artworks.

for a beginner in digital art transitioning from traditional, i think people struggle the most with actually understanding the software they're using. i think a few tips i can offer are these (keep in mind i'm under the assumption that you already know basic art skills/fundamentals):

burnout is real when it takes me over a month to draw 2 illustrations, but then again i've been working on illustrations for zines and i'm not allowed to share those just yet. also taking a break from storyboarding/animatics for now. lots of shelved ideas/WIPs but won't be able to resume those until i find the motivation again.

anyways, here's updated chara sheets of scarab and shrike after 6 years. been slowly rewriting them and rael and reyna's stories, so maybe in due time i'll figure out an efficient way of introducing their lore.

HI sorry this is random, but i am OBSESSED with the way you format your art!?!?!? ITS ALSO JUST SO PRETTY GRAAAHHH ‼️ALSO HI GACHIAKUTA FAN AND BKDK ENJOYER!?!?!? 🥹🥹💙

HAPPY BIRTHDAY @xuune !!

ITS XUUNE MONTH XUUNE MONTH!!! To the coolest person ever!! Everyone go wish xuune a happy birthday :D

OH MY GOD??? WHAT THE FUCK 😭 😭 😭 THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS?? HOW ARE YOU SUCH A COOL FRIEND?? THEIR DRIP?? THE SONG YOU CHOSE FOR THEM?? NO NOTES THIS IS SO PERFECT. words cannot describe how much you've been inspiring me this summer to keep drawing my ocs, YOU'RE THE BEST??

i know most people follow me for my fanart, and at times i do get too concerned about the numbers on my posts, but drawing my ocs is the most indulgent, and self healing art i could ever make. probably only a handful of people would ever care about the art i make of them, but that's okay since i had fun drawing them and that's more important to me :)

anyways, these are updated sheets of rael and reyna after 6 years lmao.

Anonymous asked:

is there any way to get storyboard pro as a one time purchase? it was literally a thing. like, about $1500 or almost $2000 but now they only have subscription based stuff. like, seriously??

yeah, piracy.

otherwise if you want to stick to the legal, official version then there's no other option but to use their subscription plan
