Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu
(the song is Tenkuu no Canaria, from ToS *w*b)

Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me. :la:
Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang. :D

The Echo chamber dilemmaThe promise of the Internet was that unlimited information and experiences would draw us together. But instead it seems to have driven us apart.
For years I've observed this behavior but haven't been able to vocalize it correctly. Originally I called the behavior of collective opinions as "the hive mentality" of the Internet. But that wasn't exactly right and I often got called out on it. The most prominent example was when I made a comic about a guy disagreeing with opinions and being shouted at till he remained quiet, eventually fading into the background with everyone else. The consensus of that comic was that if you disagree with someone you aren't bullied into not speaking, but instead are free to go someplace else where people who do agree with you exist. And you know what? That wasn't what i was trying to convey, but is sadly true. The Internet is not a hive mind. It's many tiny pocket echo chambers of mutual agreements.
And this is becoming a growing problem, I think, because n

300 + Pressure

:iconpriteeboy:

  • Mood: Distracted
No, I't has nothing to do with the movie that came out a while ago. I just am Promoting my 300th watcher :iconnagux: he is quite good at anime too, of course, I am noticing an increasing level in talent in my watchers, both old and new...Lets all grow together.
Trick or Tree has become my first deviation to reach over 100 faves in it's first day, I'm glad you all like it so much ! Now I've set my bar higher.

The rest is old information-still not over this bridge yet....
The title kinda oversells it, but I couldn't think of a better one, though it does have relevance to what I'll get to in a minute. The last journal was really long and made my page look messy anyway so I''l make a new one for this mildly important information.

Anyway I am a bit pressured at the moment, I have a few things going through my mind, things that make me nervous but I will eventually have to do. I have been putting off learning how to drive and finding work for ages now. It's been nearly a year since I finished High School and I havn't accomplished anything since. So I better put deviations aside and start doing normal-people stuff.

It's also happening on the digital art side of things as well, I have teachers, parents and even the local video store demanding stuff from me, so most of my photoshop time recently has been spent on things that couldn't be further from the usual, which makes them not really enjoyable to make...I guess it can mean a good thing but I ain't getting much which hardly motivates me to start, and they all came at once...a few weeks ago I was cheerfully working on my own projects but now its stuff thats...well..boring to create and hardly shows my full photoshop skills. BUt I won't let myself become one of those deviants who goes months on end without submitting stuff.

It's starting to get long now, So I'll end with clubs that I'm part of, thanks to those who read !

Well that was full of typos and I'm not sure if it's possible to edit my comment... but what I meant to say there was "The best advice I can give you is to have a relaxed mentality".

Oh don't worry...If anything - I relax too much, but thats just my easy-going personality. I guess its not a very huge thing ( compared to what I might face in the future ) But hopefully I'll get over it in a few weeks or months. :relaxed:

Your first comment looked fine to me, I understood it much more than some other comments I get, but yeah - comments can't be edited :shrug:

Well good luck and try not to worry. The best advice I can give you is to have a relax and keep in mind that stress will only make things worse. It may sound stupid/obvious but remembering that during busy times often helps more than one might think.

My Dad still owes me for the character I designed for his budding photography company...lucky for him he lives in another state, though I learned a lesson...Never send a full-sized image until they see the preview first and then pay me if they like it :-x

That's just like freelance music, let folks download the low-quality .mp3 and, if they like it, they can buy the CD. When you give them the preview, make it a copy with a little lower quality, or watermark it so they can't use it unless they buy the full-sized, licensed, unwatermarked, and un-pixelized version. There are ways. Too bad the "industry" doesn't embrace it yet. ;)

Yeah, next time I will make a very small preview available for free...It was my first time doing this after all, but its just sad my own father has taken weeks to pay me.

I've lost trust in all mankind now :unimpressed:

He might have put it off temporarily, then forgot. You could ask. But, he's family, too. A tough call to make.
