Fall 2020 Update

In progress: Castlevania animation + style tutorial, funny zombie animation (we have an amazing cover song recorded already), still have to finish the "is this a furry" animation from last year.

Scribble Kibble Plans: mini series of inspirational videos to get artists through tough art-related stresses. I'll release those here first. I'm working on pins, charms, buttons, and a plush toy. Regular merch is already on Redbubble.

This fan art is a rare example of when I do every 2D animation step. There are only 8 drawings but it took about 10 hours to make. The second video on this Instagram post shows the steps.

- keyframes
- inbetweens and cleanup / final lines
- color
- shading (this is the step I always skip)
- compositing and effects

The background is out of Trolls World Tour; a decent one takes me 30 minutes to an hour to draw. Real backgrounds cost a few hours.

When cutting costs, the shading is the first to go, background quality second, then compositing disappears, and finally the # of inbetweens drops.
