Did another lighting test of my Diadem animation, lowering the sun intensity. First time I've done a daytime scene in Cycles, so taking it a bit at a time until I get the lighting just right. #FFXIV #IntotheDiadem

A render test of my opening scene. Not 100% happy with the lighting on some of the angles, but was quite happy with the composition. #FFXIV #IntotheDiadem

Before I started in 3D animation, I made a comic with GPose set during the Garlean occupation of Gyr Abania. Check it out here: heartsofwinter.carrd.co #FFXIV

Howdy all!

This week I began production on my next short film "Into the Diadem." It's my most ambitious animation yet and will tell the story of a newbie's first experience in The Diadem. Will post some sneak peeks as I get further along. See you soon! #FFXIV #IntoTheDiadem

New animation drops tomorrow! Was a lot of fun to create. I'll post it here when it's out.

Bloodlines @bloodlines87.bsky.social · Aug 13

Hello everyone! Have a new animation dropping soon. Looking to have it done within the next 7 days or so. Hope you enjoy! #FFXIV #FFXIVVideos

Made this for a friend for my latest practice round. Not 100% content with it, but got to try a few ideas for it. The challenge was to make it one continuous animation, so I didn't do any camera cuts as I felt that would be 'cheating' the exercise.

Bloodlines @bloodlines87.bsky.social · Jul 29

I'm considering doing a Behind the Scenes for how I did a lot of the shots and effects of #UndertheMoonlight2. So many things went into making it that it's a short story in itself. Also this was just me having a little fun practicing animating with a two handed weapon. #FFXIV #FFXIVVideos

Bloodlines @bloodlines87.bsky.social · Jul 28

Lots of people say things to me like "I wish I could do that" or "I'm not talented enough".

Whether it's animation, art, or underwater basket weaving, it all starts small. Every step is a journey to something greater. But it all starts with that first step. Take it and see where it leads you.

Haha, mood. Big mood.

Under the Moonlight 2 won "Best Narrative" at the Hildi's Film Festival 2025!!

Bringing my DRK's story to life has been such an incredible experience. Thank you all so much for all the love you've given me!

Reiza's story isn't over. It's just beginning. Stay tuned. #HildisXIV #UndertheMoonlight2

Another bit of practice bringing a friend's WoL to life. Worked with a few techniques I've been learning. The coin flip was a bit more challenging than I thought it would be, but was a great exercise. #FFXIV #FF14 #FFXIVVideos

A bit more practice. Getting closer to the production stage of my next project, so working some reps in. :) #FFXIV #FF14

Making these for some friends and to get practice in while in-between projects. It's definitely pushing me to refine my animation workflow, which makes the actual animation process a bit faster! #FFXIV #FFXIVVideos #FF14
