I haven't updated in like, ages xD Sorry xD Holidays and exams and stuff.
I'm still making my art, but that's about to stop soon.
See, at the start of the last school year, for my moving image arts class(MIA) I asked our teacher if I could do animation. She said I wouldn't have the time and that I should rotoscope instead (filming and then drawing over every frame)
That went well and all, 630 frames in 2 months for a minute and a half of film. It was passed around our whole school ><" Random past teachers would come up to me and ask about it @______@ What do you even do when something gets that much attention? I ended up hiding from teachers that knew me ><"
Anyway, while I wait on results for my A Levels, I remembered my teacher saying that I wouldn't be able to animate a short film in the time. Long story short, challenge accepted. I've got my story, I've got my characters and once I have a story board drawn out in the next few days, I'm starting it.
That gives me 9 months until it would be due in. Tonnes of time I hear you say, but I'll still have 2 other subjects to keep on top of. Not to mention this year is the year that our whole year group puts on a play at christmas for the rest of the school. It's called Christmas Pie and is usually hilarious, but it takes an awful amount of time. We're still writing it, but the guy in charge is like, one of my best friends(I have connections~) and has already asked me to help work on the set for them among other things. So that pretty much makes it 6 months for the animation and other subjects I have to juggle.
A 3 minute animation in around 6 months of evening and weekend work. Think I can do it?
I feel the need to prove that I can. But I need to keep the quality up in the art section. So. Yeah.
And I guess it's going to have to be me that emails the people I was going to be working with since it's clear they aren't gonna email me. I hate changing my mind like this, but if I actually manage to make this film it could open so many doors. I just wouldn't have time for much else.
So yeah. Um. I hope you're all doing ok
I realise I've been pretty inactive here for a brave while, tumblr is where I exist. But no I'm not giving you my new URL, I'm scared I'd freak you all out xD
