  • Learned
 Sometimes, some people will be better than you. I can't be jealous, because it won't do me any good. All I can do is my best.
  • Want to learn
 How to draw human beings more effectively.
  • Frustrated you
 As deadlines approach I can't help but feel a sense of dread.

That and I've been fighting with some close friends of mine :(
  • Made you happy
 My boyfriend

 You're going to die

Dark Sauce (Dark Souls)

A funny parody. I've kind of been into Dark Souls recently. This video has lip syncing and stuff. It's pretty funny too. Check it out and beware, we wouldn't want you to go hollow.

Inexpensive Garage Studio Tricks

Fast Facts:
  • Protect your external hard drives. They are your best friends. Invest in fireproof safes to keep them safe from harm.
  • Use ankle weights to keep your stuff in place. This is a pretty creative and useful idea actually.
  • Utilize the thrift store for cords. Search for cords that can be used such as bendable or right angle end cords
Cool bits:
  • Useful. Cost effective. Makes the most use out of every asset.
  •  Great for anyone starting out or anyone who wants to keep their space small
 Question:
  • Where does one come up with these tricks? Is it something one learns from experience?

Another Tips Blog

yay...

Fast facts:
  • Break down your rigs to make them easier to work with. Dividing each leg or appendage into separate colors can be used to make animating much easier.
  • Show off your goods while they are still works in progress. Don't let your pride get the best of you. And besides, if there is a major error, it will be easier to catch and correct in its earlier stages that near completion.
  • Animators are only actors with pencils. Go out and live life so that you can take that life and shove it into an animation to make it feel more real. So basically, live life for your character.
Cool Bits:
  • Another tip blog. Not that they aren't useful, but they're getting a little repetitive...
  • Useful tips that I hadn't really thought of before. Color coding is genius
Question:
  •  I think tip number 8 is a little unclear. What does "block" mean in this situation?
