Lyrics:

I don't want to be yellow
If I'm gonna tone down
I don't want to fly if I end up with my head in the ground

I just want to be stable
Is it wrong to brown
'Cause all the pretty colors twist my emotions around

I just want to be happy
Just so I'm being clear
I just want to be brown

*repeat x ∞

I enjoy your style of music. The slight amount of audio distortion sounds really nice.

Regarding the animation, glitch effect looks nice, as well as transitions between scenes. I'm curious what other techniques you were practicing, I am looking to get started on some myself but am trying to find a place to start :/

Hey GeneralBaker! thank you for listing the lyrics and the kind review. This project in particular I was trying to figure out how to use compositing to compliment the animation. So the glitch effect, static backgrounds from my editing/compositing software, as well as some features from Toon Boom that effect line quality and texture. I wasn't happy everything I tried out, the line boil features they added to toon boom were a bit too subtle for my liking, but I learned a lot of things I'd love to add to my arsenal to make my future work shinier.

I really like your digital paintings! They're hella vibing. I could easily see you making a couple of animation exercises with those. Best of luck.
