Graduation Approching

With the end of high school nearing its end, I can feel like nervousness of entering college and becoming a regular member of society increasing.
I can't believe it! It's almost here! Our Graduation!
According to the board in my third period, there's 15 days until we graduate.

Misadventurenauts Sneak Peek

I'm currently working on the Misadvetnurenauts animated video again, and I decided to share a frame screenshot.

Working for Others

I know I made a post about awhile ago about how I wanted to work and create on my own content rather than the content of others.

Well, guess what's been happening the last few days?

A friend of mine not too long ago asked me to create some short animated footage for a video he's working on for his Video Production class. I followed his direction and he liked the end result.

Then just recently, him and another good friend of mine met up with me and asked me to animate several scenes for a video project they're both working on in the same class.
I've got to say, this kind of offer is kind of neat. It's a great opportunity to gain experience and bettering myself in animating.
Don't get me wrong. I'm still not big on assisting with creating someone else's work or project, but I think it's safe to say that this is exception, especially since these are cool guys I know.
I hope they won't mind if I post one of the clips they wanted me to do.
Before this scene, you see the computer screen with a photo of a "duck face," then this scene comes on. Now it makes better sense, right?

I gotta say, what I really loved about this task was that I pretty much animated all the different scenes they wanted non-stop. I literally animated straight from 5pm to 12am. I totally loved it! I feel like a real, dedicated animator. Even though I finished at midnight, I felt refreshed for some reason.

Experimental Drawing Style

We're a few days into May!
Let's get things started!

A few Mondays ago, my English teacher has given us another typical assignment. However, this was no typical assignment.

We're currently reading the novel 1984, written by George Orwell. This one particular assignment is something we've done before, which is to create a comic strip of a certain section of a chapter, or sometimes the whole chapter. She usually wants us to create with a "graphic novel" type of style, so while the rest of the class went about with stick figures, I had a different idea in mind.
As you know, this is my usual way of drawing:
Totally my kind of style, right?
