My imagination part

What I have figured out for me, most of my imagination comes out when I start blocking out the character.

The reason video reference is so hard for me is because I have nothing to see ( I have a visual type of person I think) So it was really hard for me to make up my mind and making a video reference.

But right now I am blocking out my animation, and for now, this is where I think I get creative. I'm changing things around, I see the character movement in front of me, I can get inside his head and think of more ideas.

What a huge relief for me!

Video References

For me this is the hardest part of animation.

This is where your character comes to life. You have to get inside there head. Being a beginner it is hard to do.

I've spent all day trying to get into my characters head. But I keep on changing the story and stuff. So it is hard to get a good understanding.

I've been in my basement for a while just acting things out. And for me it is tiring lol.

But I'm going to try my best to get good video references

Lack of posts

Man I haven't posted for a while but I've been busy! Camp, then cedar point and hanging out with out of state friends.

But I finally have time to animate now! Also I found a nice side hobby...Music! People from BTA really inspire me to do that too. And it will be good if I get burned out on animation to much.

Also I contacted Tom Richner about starting an animation studio! I need to start writing a letter about why I love animation and why I love ohio. I love both so it will be easy!

Anyways still working on that hammer smash!
