Give me your questions about "Eye 4 Eye"

I'm making a behind-the-scenes video, so if you wanna know something about my process, comment here!

And before anyone asks about this gif, I looked up a tutorial about datamoshing with avidemux

My other hell fable idea

Here is a look at the video I was working on before I decided to make Eye 4 Eye instead.

Hopefully you can get some ideas from my experiments.

August Donation and Update

This month is $50 to the National Resources Defense Council and $50 to World Central Kitchen. I didn't post last month, but I donated $50 to the NRDC. They do good things, go check them out.

Update

Well, I posted the new animation "Eye 4 Eye" for Hellavision and Loose Frames, I guess the next thing would be to make a behind-the-scenes video, and I have other animation ideas I'd like to work on; new original ideas as well as a sequel or two. I have a few supporter exclusive video...

EYE 4 EYE (short animation)

Here is the final cut of my hellavision animation. I didn't wanna completely redo large parts of it, so most is the same. Compared to the version I submitted to hellavision, this one has leg animation, credits, and some details like the babies are dirty at the end. I also added a few more poses here and there.

I'll probably make this public in about a week.

I hope you all like it!

World's Best TikToks 1 - with Kevin Bissell

I thought this could be a fun thing to do, let me know if this is entertaining because I could definitely make more.

I'll try to get some behind the scenes content made soon. I just finished the public version of my Hellavision animation, so that should be here shortly.

My new animated short! (kind of)

I made this in 45 hours over the course of a week for Hellavision's "Hell Fable" animation open call

I'm planning on fixing up parts of the animation and adding credits, but this is the version that will be in Hellavision screenings

Everything else by me

When I have time, I'll share some behind the scenes stuff to show how I made this, as well as the animation that I postponed to do this one instead

Thanks for watching...

How I made this animation in 16 days [early access]

I've finally finished the behind-the-scenes video for "I Come In P-", thank you all for being patient. I hope this answers a lot of the questions people had.

I'm working on the next Hellavision animation soon, so stay tuned for updates on that. I'd like to be able to send updates while I'm actually working on it, but managing time is tough, so we'll see how it goes.

Enjoy!

Sneak peek at making the music for "I Come In P-"

I'm still working on the behind-the-scenes video and I though people would like to see this part I just finished.

Sometime soon, I can make a supporter video where I go over this process in detail.

Enjoy!

How I made the stretchy rigs from "I Come In P-"

The short one
The long one

Okay so these two videos are the same, but one is edited to be much shorter and the long one only has big silences cut out, like when I walk away from my computer.

I've included the file with the characters from the video (yes, including the astronaut and main alien), so you can follow along if you'd like.

I'm making a new drawing tool for Blender

I've shared some drawing tool ideas before but this will have pretty much all of them built into one tool, and the UI is way better thanks to some recent updates.

I've included the file if anyone wants to play with it. It will be updated before I start sharing it publicly though.

Have fun!

Animated short that I made in 16 days!

I made this for Hellavision Television Network's open call "Track Attack" and the last day, I stayed up all night to finish it in time. It definitely has some problems I would have liked to fix but I am moving on from it.

I don't know when I'll publicly release it but here is an early viewing for you all here.

[Early Access] get rid of foot slipping

As promised, here is the video I've been working on. I'm going back to this follow-along style video since they are quick to make. I would like to put in more time but I need to prioritize the freelance project I'm working on.

I have at least one more animation tip video that I could make, and I'd like to do a few beginner videos because those tend to get more steady views for longer. And when I'm done with the freelance gig, I'd like to go back to my animated short projects.

I ho...
