Thanks BananasFoster. Wish I could say that I meant to do that, but I'm really just a sucky storyteller. haha.

Also, thanks Pahgawk. Yeah I don't understand it either. Haha. I checked the front page almost everyday, and still managed to forget. Ah well, it seems to have gone through finally. Also, thank you for the kind words! Best of luck to everyone who enters.

Man, you guys are inspiring me to want to make some animations just for the fun of it again. Ive been so busy animating for work that I haven't sat down and animated for myself in a while. I look back fondly at the two years I did TOFA (when it was called TOFA (backinmydaygrumbleoldman.jpg) and just look at how much I've grown over the span of 9 animations, and how now I look back at The Shape of Love and realize how I could top that these days. Its cool, its almost like an autobiography of your progress as an artist. If it also helps, I MISS the days when I would get home from my internship, or when I was unemployed all last year I would just wake up and animate until I couldnt anymore. That's the real prize from winning this thing, to see progress in your craft. So grow, learn, have fun, and work! If the sky were the limit, we wouldn't have put people on the moon by now!

I read this topic on a regular basis every day, to be sure that no entries are being left out in case someone forgets to tag and then doesn't check back and realize their error. Still, be sure to edit that tag in when it passes judgement and we'll be all good to go :)

Saw it at midnight release, such a fantastic movie.

To motivate myself, I've decided to livestream myself animating tonight until I pass out.

That is a great idea! I guess people can root you on live, huh?

Just please don't pass out. That might not be very productive!


Boop boop beep boop.

Sadly, I am not gonna be able to do it this year. I have one project being canceled, another project I am working hard on, and School Work. I wish everyone else the best, but sadly, I cannot enter.

Why does lip syncing have to take so much time if i want it to look good :/

I know. Lipsync is definitely the most tedious part.

Been working mainly on audio today. This is a part of my backing music i recorded. Still got a fair bit of animation to go but backgrounds are mostly done. Hows everyone else doing?
