Gradient Maps. I love them, you love them.

After Effect doesn't love them.

But here are a few ways we can convince AE to use them.

Except for college, which went over a little of everything, and a couple of bootcamps, I'm self taught.

As I get older, I find that my usual learning process is making me increasingly anxious?

Can't pin down why, but it feels like "I don't know what I don't know".

Doesn't feel like play anymore.

I have a theory

To learn about someone, check out their mugs.

These are some of my wife and I's favorites.

Ok maybe don't look too closely at our mugs 😅

(First mug is by my favorite illustrator, GodMachine)

-2 Charisma is a Twitch stream my friends and I have run forever.

It's also my playground for trying new techniques.

This is a piece that landed on the cutting room floor.

Here's more if this tickles your fancy: lnkd.in/enHYR2QW

(what is a fancy? how does one tickle it?)

As predicted, platform compression ruined yesterday's upload.

Maybe these stills will compress better maybe?|

The Mill has been torched, the post job market is a desert.

Then why does it feel like drowning?

Only the AG and the President can interpret the law huh?

That's not at all something a dictator would say.

The time for pitchforks is now.

Majora's Mask just grips me.

I can't explain it.

Has since I was a child.

So when I cosplayed at PAX for the first time, the costume choice was obvious.

I don't toot my own horn much, but the paint job I pulled off on this 🥹
