After that... my Dandy group did a round of Garctic Phone, so that was really fun, and uh, I did some concept art I guess I really can't say anything about because it's under NDA. That's about it really

We're supposed to make a color that is the same look darker next to another color. Then a color that isn't the same look the same. I dunno, it's not exactly challenging stuff but at least I'm learning. After class I realized I fucked up and didn't turn in an assignment from awhile ago so I did that

Here's a recap of classes today since I missed the last one
Still... just learning colors. And this week's project isn't really as fun as the previous projects cuz the assignment is to just play around with color, lights and darks overlapping, and how color interacts with other color.

I also read MLP fanfics in the hospital while I was recovering from that small surgery getting a stent in earlier this year. Did I talk about that here? I forget already. But yea, when i want something to read, fanfics are really the easiest to find since there's so many of them

But uh... besides that, even though it's late, and I have college classes tomorrow, I think I just wanna get comfy under my blanket and read fanfiction. Get my mind off everything. I really enjoy reading My Little Pony fanfiction in particular, I've been doing it since my high school days.

Even the film I wanna make, I just barely have enough time to work on it, and I'm dreading the idea of not finishing it on time. Like, I'm in such a tight situation right now where it's rush it to completion and risk putting out a worse product, or waiting a whole nother year to premiere it

One part of me wishes I could relive that joy i used to feel, or at least recreate it somehow or make something that gives people that same feeling if that makes any sense. But I don't think I'm talented enough to do that, or even have the free time to take on these larger ideas I always think of.

But besides that I noticed it's been getting really chilly over here. I feel weirdly... nostalgic over it? Just thinking about how I always bundle under a blanket in the winter. I kinda missed doing that. I also feel nostalgic thinking about Halloween and the Club Penguin Halloween parties

I spent the last couple hours doodling. You know, I really want to make a comic someday, I think I said that before in the past, but I've never felt particularly attached to any of my comic ideas.
It's the same for my art style really. I always default to this really simple style and I don't like it

I also got an email about the award. I have to fill out a tax form or whatever and then they're gonna give me a check. I'll probably do that tomorrow since it's already late
foxslushi.bsky.social
I've pretty much already planned out which scenes I'm gonna animate on which day to finish it before the deadline. But that also means my entire month is pretty much dedicated to this test, anything else I wanted/was gonna do is halted

Boring update time
The interview went well, I guess I don't have the job yet, usually I'm just brought on but they wanna see my skills as an animator so they're having me do an animation test
Am I possibly being used to do free work at the promise of money? Maybe, but I don't care

Really though, I think it's because this is all I got. My parents are so proud of me, and I'm so passionate about art, why would I ever turn away from it? I don't think I could. I just hope the school I go to let's me keep going there because my entire future is riding on this working out somehow.
foxslushi.bsky.social
Now, I still hold onto that dream. Even though the world has turned to shit... and the futures uncertain, for some reason, I just keep moving forward. Working on things, improving. Maybe it's because I'm passionate, or maybe I hope things will get better one day.

It was in high school I really started thinking about what I wanted to do in life. I thought about my passion with cartoons. And... I had a dream that maybe I could make my own one day. I started drawing... I took a screenwriting class, and I wrote and drew so many ideas.
foxslushi.bsky.social
Have I ever really talked about why I like to do animation and art in the first place? I like to tell myself what I'm doing right now is just to get experience. That's why I'm fine with not being paid, even though I have 3 years experience under my belt now. But really, this all started because--
foxslushi.bsky.social
This isn't really unusual though. I'm pretty used to getting accepted onto projects at this point and either not being immediately needed or given a large grace period to get work done. It makes taking on multiple things as an animator easy
foxslushi.bsky.social
I applied to another animation job, and I potentially got accepted. I talk to the people I applied to tomorrow. If I do get accepted that means I'll have two ongoing jobs, one I started last month and then this one.

So I think it's just knowing their are eyes actively watching while I draw is what scares me away. It doesn't really matter though. I put effort into making a professional looking comic panel today quickly and one person praised it as the best thing they've seen with that character.
foxslushi.bsky.social
Well technically, I'm too afraid to actually join them, so I draw alone and then share my stuff afterwards. I don't know why, I just get nerves at the thought of people potentially seeing my messy drawing process. But... especially live. Like, I could record it and have no issues showing it.
foxslushi.bsky.social
In case anyone was curious, I haven't heard anything back about the award payment yet.

Today marks about a week since I joined that Dandy World group though. They did their weekly drawing thing and I participated in it for the second time.

Daily bunny no.3098 brings the snacks
A bunny is in a dark dungeon, on one side of a bolted wooden door. On the other side of the door, seen through a barred window in the door, a giant, amorphous monster is visible, with green tentacles and a giant eyeball. The bunny has brought a bucket of fish for the creature to eat.

So the big question this weekend is... when the heck am I gonna get my 200 dollars, because they didn't give it at the ceremony and now I'm just wondering if I have to wait for an email or something

The overwhelming urge to DRAW!

I mostly just need/want to relax right now. I can feel a mild headache coming on and I just want to get into my normal routine again. Probably playing a game or drawing or whatever. I would check how I appeared on stage but the online version of the event was only on Zoom
