I'm Digressing

Posted by Theo-art - April 12th, 2008


'Ullo Newgrounds, take a seat, help yourself to some crumpets and tea.

I haven't posted much, been preoccupied with a lot lately, I think I'm sick. But I'm not here to bitch and moan, you guys don't like that, you want some insightful crap and rants.

Well I've got a lot on my plate at the moment, this includes:

Starlight
Juzzy Animation: Black
MGS Collab
Probably something else, I forget easy . o.

Aura Core definitely keeps me busy, but I'm so amateur it's hard for them to notice my slacking. That or they're just too modest.

I bet you all have these times when you just get really detached from your norm, and you just start getting stressed with the conformity and what not. I'm not depressed, that's an emotion, and I don't think you can "cure" emotions.

It's like animating is as distant as ever from me, but it's all I have to do, I'm just that pathetic. Keeping motivated is hard, it really takes a lot for me to get up in the morning, and tell myself that I'll get something done today.

I think I abuse the paragraph. Every new idea I get demands its claim.

Have you guys ever noticed the attention hungry kids that post "HOW DO I MAKE A FLASH MOVIE" or "I WISH I HAD FLASH"; we get it, you're to redundant to realize flash movies are made with the very program the name derives from, and you expect a random person to just cure your lack of flash. I could just be overreacting, but that just urks me ya' know.

I should start dating.

How're you guys, how's the family, what's the word.

I want to know.

Everytime i go to the flash forum there is always a "OMG plz halp meh" then i cringe and click the topic... it always says "OMG what internet porgram do i use to make falsh!" so then i write "you use adobe flash the latest is cs3", then he says "OMG why is it so expensive! :'(" then i say "its a profesianal program used by profesianal, there is a trial though" then he says "OMG thax, i making flahs rightn ow!" then i say
"just don't submit it right away" knowing that he is just making a sprite movie sure enough he soon replys

"OMG ho w do i put sprites in falsh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!" i don't reply after that.

Im depressed really it makes me wake up late i feel like i cant move at all, i fell like i want to crawl up ina ball and sleep my sleep is a nothingness of darkness witch is soothing and peaceful thats why i love to sleep the day away if i could id go with the bears and sleep for a long long time but i cant so i wake up feeling horrible my whole body hurts i feel like crap and want to go back to sleep but my body wont let me so i go into the day untill midday i feel nice and calm, and thats my word well i cant think of the other crap that makes me sad.

I really wish I could post viruses on the bbs.

If you're too stupid to google "flash" to see what flash is, you're too stupid to deserve a pc. End.

So true man.

I have the google toolbar thing (like everyone else), and if you don't take it's existence into account, then flashes are the least of your worries.

wheres the flash forum, i wanna read it.

How do I Pull my Pants up?

I have been trying for fucking AGES.

Oh Lord, I-I JUST DON'T KNOW!

Hey thar.

Heh, the day I stop having fun with making flash movies is the day I stop for a while. But I love it, its kinda theraputic to make something silly and goofy when I've got a hangover/stressing over uni work/just been recording or practicing with the band.

I feel like slapping myself sometimes cos I don't take animating as seriously as I should. seriously with the right time, effort and practice/education, I think ANYONE could make things on a par with Brackenwood/Metro Circuit/Mastermind style stuff (you know, the real 'eye candy' animation). But I have a very 'impatient' art style. Its sloppy and messy and crude, but people seem to like that.

Anyways, hope you get your focus back man.

Yeah, I totally getcha. Hopefully I can get on track soon, I was probably just overwhelmed.

I don't have flash, but I try not to bitch about it. Plus, the computers at the highschool have it, and I'm gonna be taking a graphic design/animation course there next year. Yay.

Anyway, keep up the animating. Remember that there are people out there who like your work, and have that motivate you.

You're so lucky that your school has animation courses, we have NOTHIN'.

Golly, I hope there's people who like my work! . o.

<3

I went through this same, exact phase right before I finished my Bittersweet part for the collab. To the point where I was just LOOKING for distractions and the like, but one day I came around and got started again.

I think what made me come back to my focus was to tackle ONE thing at a time. Figure out what you can get done that day, and then do it. Trying to do everything at once is what will make it overwhelming.

thanks for the crumpets and tea :T

also lul @ profile pic

Yeah, well Tarienn is a BIG FAT MEANY HEAD, who makes me WORK.

Well hopefully if I take things one at a time and not worry about priority, I won't get so stressed.

Stop eating my food.

...I though it said "I'm Digesting"....I'll leave now.

Dude, I think that post contradicts everything I think of you as an animator. You are awesome! And I saw your review for the When You Were Young Collab and I thought woah! How'd we get him to find out about this? And then i saw your last sentence:

Kudos to Noxx, that was some epic frame by frame.

:D Sorry if I'm over reacting. But it was really awesome.

Oh, we all have our times man, I just happen to get them more frequently then others, haha. I'm flattered that you think so well of me! I always have issues with self-confidence in my work, so this really helps dude.

And you should feel proud bud, you really are talented, and I hope to see more from you in the future!

Peace

Thanks so much! And I'm always a fan. :)
