What i am loving.

I think i have came to a conclusion...(well so far studying animation) i have realised what i am loving the most.

Clean up and colouring animation (whether its mine or someone else's).
A bit of special effects in animation.
A bit of rotoscoping (animating over live action footage FYI).
A bit of Illustration (involving comics, posters, thumbnails, manga, etc...but not to big on the painting side of it).
A bit of storyboarding.

And as much as i am not a fan of being in charge i love coming up with the animation ideas haha...A director some would say. It sounds silly but i just have so many ideas to make but no time or skill to do them so i wish i could have a studio of animations and etc.. and bring my ideas and imagination to life! With input from animators as well because why not :).

Thought i would share this because it is a blog and tutors advise us to talk about this kind of stuff and show our work and that is what i am doing :) sharing with you what i love most with all this so far.
And i am not going to lie...I love the other aspects of animation but when its something super complex and above my so called "skill level" its not that appealing to me.

Life of Sin by MitiS.

I love this artist MitiS who has made 5 parts to a song called Life of Sin and i got this awesome idea to make an audio reaction in After Effects (note this is my first time trying it) and i am so happy with the results! Also note this is not the full version obviously haha plus it is a gif so no audio BUT here is the link for the full: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMx9D4VN2B0


Having fun with After Effects.

I have been using After Effects a lot lately for study, personal projects and YouTube stuff and here is some gifs of examples :)
