Spending some time up in Southerndown this Christmas bought back the Vampire universe in my heart. The Vampire universe was born right after I visited my dad last July, and was in full swing in mid-August when I was moving house. We can take a Freudian dip into my sudden enjoyment of permanent, unchanging statesContinue reading “Visual Diary – Vampires”

Visual Diary – Switching Off
Just sketching up a few examples of Antonia spacing out. Each sketch is from a different universe. Themes of comfort and moving hands.
Visual Diary – At the Inn
This one was sweet. Drawn to heal the heart. Still in the fantasy AU, where Ludwig is nearly two feet taller than Drake because he has giant genes.
Paddington – Tom Kerridge Shot
Today I woke up with fear in my heart, but after a morning of work I’m feeling good, loose, happy and I learned a lot! I learned how to manipulate video in Photoshop and to export as a series of images. This will be hugely useful to me with any frame by frame animation IContinue reading “Paddington – Tom Kerridge Shot”
Paddington – Mad Laddington
Cool for everyone witnessing this project thread to get to see my neurons die in real time as the words “Paddington Bear” weave themselves into my thoughts in any way they can. Prime examples are of me calling Roderick “Paderick Roddington”, me trying to say I had to blog paddington but instead trying to “PlagContinue reading “Paddington – Mad Laddington”
Visual Diary – Bound?!
Ever since I drew the Bound reel for Drake and Ludwig – a sweet, loving thing – I’ve wanted to create a sister reel for Mitzi and Antonia that just epitomises silliness and chaos. I took the same audio as before and added a bunch of dumb noises at the end. Again, I challenged myselfContinue reading “Visual Diary – Bound?!”
Visual Diary – Only One Bed?!
Depending on who’s reading this, you may or may not be aware of the infamy of the literary trope that goes: two people try to book at a full hotel, but there’s only one double room left, forcing them to share the bed. It’s famous because it’s cheap, and usually used in fanfictions as aContinue reading “Visual Diary – Only One Bed?!”
Paddington – File Format Problem Solving
Today I threw random media into Premiere Pro and exported it in the Apple Pro Res 422 HQ format. I got the sense as I did this that I had been prepared somewhat for this by previous experience – that awful day where my videos got exported in Virtual Reality for NO REASON did, admittedly,Continue reading “Paddington – File Format Problem Solving”
Visual Diary – Bound (To Falling in Love)
With some reluctance, I dragged myself up to make another reel. Instagram is absolutely kneecapping still image posts – I’m convinced it’s hiding them – and I am only receiving scraps of engagement on moving image – that is, reels. Of course, I ended up enjoying this. I got to animate a scene from theContinue reading “Visual Diary – Bound (To Falling in Love)”
Visual Diary – Drake (and, more importantly, George)
You may realise that the completion of Drake’s design (or at least, something working) means that all five characters have designs in this universe now. Which means I can start sketching up some cool scenes without limitations now! Drake meets George while still on Mytikas, his home city in the clouds. The culture on Mytikas,Continue reading “Visual Diary – Drake (and, more importantly, George)”
