Animatic for One Nipple at a Time.
-----------
My usual aproach to animatics is to just get everything down as loose and in as little time as possible. When I'm working solo on a project it's more or less a thinking document for general shot flow, knowing that I'll solve the smaller issues along the way.
For projects that need other's involvement though, or need more complexity it's important to spell everything out in fine detail. A good rule of thumb is that if something can't be communicated clearly in the animatic, it's going to be a nightmare when it comes time for production.
Looking back on it after so long, its cool to see how much of the essense of the animatic was retained in the final video. Ya tend to lose certain things along the way as details flesh out and get brought more into focus.
Hit me up if you got any questions I'll do my best to answer :)

2022-03-26 02:44:36 +0000 UTCThanks for the kind words 🙂 There’s a few strategies I use when I’m creatively blocked. - Just try to absorb as much as you can, and rather than sitting down trying to nut something out, go for a run or do something physical that leaves you a lot of mental room to stew. Most of my ideas percolate when I’m doing something else - If I’m in a deep lul period where nothing is coming out, usually that’s a sign to pump the peddle a bit and focus on health and nutrition, because stress is a massive creativity killer for me. - I try to make most projects ‘fit for purpose’. So I have a goal in mind, whether its for online growth, or more personal reasons, and work backwards from there. There’s a lot of creative restrictions in what tends to work and tends not to online. I work a lot better when there’s a creative box or limitation, and trying my best to produce the best outcome within certain parameters. - Go back to basics and focus on fundamentals or technique. Often times learning a new style, a project idea will emerge out of that - I think at a fundamental level creativity is about putting disparate ideas together to create something new. Two unoriginal concepts can come together and blend in new and interesting ways.

2022-03-25 07:23:44 +0000 UTCI just want to say, your channel is the only one I genuinely get excited for every time I see that notification. Your work is a huge inspiration to myself and many others, and I every time I watch a video, it pushes me to want to create something new. So thank you for that. What advice would you have for somebody who has the ability, and wants to make videos like yours, but feels creatively blocked for ideas? Any thoughts on how one might create their own style and look?

Even though there aren't a lot of posts, if something lands on here, it feels worthwhile and actually like you get something more. It feels very small and intimate imo. Like an actual look into the creative process.

2022-03-22 07:02:01 +0000 UTCThank you so much for showing this, James. I don't have the headspace to make this prettier because today was a nightmare but I just wanted to really take a minute to tell you thank you. Idk how you see your own blurbs, but these post do wonders for people like me who have a really rough history with art and autistic trauma related to internalizing everything so severely that it's made approaching art, what Ibused to do and be my everything, now even on my best days a terrible gut wrenching experience. I always wanted to pursue it professionally but being autistic made things so much more difficult and all the pain inherent in being a young artist was and remains amplified by my disabilities. I gave up on ever getting to go to art school, not that it was ever financially feasible for me anyway even if I was a confident artist at any point in my life, and certainly not now. But watching and seeing this stuff helps. Drawing even remotely as casually or frequently as I used to it all but impossible for me these days and can trigger shit I don't want to go into, but I just really need to let you know man, these posts mean the world to me. I can't enmesh myself in art videos n shit at all anymore these days because it's just all too painful, but your stuff just feels soothing. It's only brief glimpses but that's all I can handle anyway, and yet it's also comes loaded with little behind the scenes thoughts and blurbs that make sense and help me think about stuff I'm too distanced from these days to get to overhear anymore. It feels genuinely soothing and comforting.. and it let's me keep in touch with a world so near and dear to me, even better from a creator whose work is so stylistically impactful it grips me by the shirt collar for just hard n quick enough but is plenty rich in so much visual things taken to gorgeous contrasts n extremes before letting me go without a push, left to free fall as if tossed off a cliff but with no intention other than to give a good thrill. And then it's over and leaves you to digest it all, a free fall with no crash, just left breathless, curious, and... allowed to resume your day in a state of whatever you care to wander back into. Anyway, this.. went on way too long n I almost hope you don't even spend the whole time reading it because it's not important. Just, sincerely, thank you ✌️ you're just a great experience. Carry on & shine 👋
