What's a Limelight?

As a good number of people know, I used to go by the name "Limelight."
Well, as we all know now, I go by "Doji Pocket."
Why?
I thought Limelight was a good name, despite everything being called Limelight(if you Google the word) That name was held dear to me because as a little kid, I've wanted to open a studio called "Limelight Studios" (Now it's "Limelight Animation Studios" because then, I didn't animate)
But just last year, I typed "Limelight Animation," in the Google search bar and even before I finished typing the whole thing out, turns out, it already existed.
After that, I was down for two days. Limelight was my thing for several years, and in just seconds, it was done.
After I realized that Limelight was a stupid unoriginal name, I started coming up with something better! After all, my content is original, so my "name" should be the same.
That one fateful day, during the High School Exit Exam, I was finished early, so I had nothing to do, when out of nowhere, the name "Doji Pocket" occurred to me.
A few days pass by, and now, it's mah new thing! So here we are today with Doji Pocket.
Be on the lookout for "Doji Pocket Animation Studio" one day.

The reason I posted this was because I finally released the URL of this blog to Flipnote Hatena, a site where I used to be active, posting my animations. My username was Limelight.
Search me up the site if you've never seen my work!
Just don't see anything before 2013. That stuff's OLD.

New Project Upcoming!

I'm very, very excited about my coming project.
Anyone that knows me well should know that I love the future! I love all the sophisticated gadgets, building designs, fashion, and culture of the future! Even though we aren't living in  a chrome-covered 4583 AD kind of future, it's something I've have a huge interest for. That includes nearly everything science fiction has to offer.
So naturally, I want to create something surrounding all that. Every concept idea I've created surrounding this, either failed or I just didn't stick on to it because I didn't like. Mainly, they would strangely similar to familiar movies. STRANGELY.
I've been playing around with the concept of a little kid bringing a nuclear weapon to school for science class, and as strange as it sounds, it's a normal thing for someone way ahead of our time period. Then it grew to a futuristic setting. Then that little kid became a high schooler. And so on.
Then it all came together when I thought a history teacher would be better if he was a time traveler instead. After that thought, boom. Everything worked.
So the image here is a reference to how I will design the high school teenagers will attend soon in 2122 AD and also for the city it will take place in. Mainly for the city design, but you get the idea.

It's back!

Just when I thought it wouldn't return to Anaheim again this year, it returns to Anaheim again this year! WonderCon returns to Anaheim this year! It's good news, well, for me at least. I just received the e-mail, giving me access to buy tickets for the convention.
For those who don't know, WonderCon is exactly like Comic Con, except it's slightly smaller in size, but it still offers all the Comic Con goodies!
...AND if you still don't get the idea, it's a comic convention! All the cartoons n' movies n' video game companies n' TV shows n' anime n' cosplayers n' comic writers n' more, will be at this convention.
These conventions made me feel like I was with the group of people, sharing similar interests and actually caring about the creators who created all our entertaining shows we watch today.
It's a big nerd convention basically. I belong with these people. These are my people!

So in other news, this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCkYw3cRwLo

Movie Poster Designing

I love creating stories. I love movies. I love designing. I love movie posters.
Put 'em together and you get my love of designing movie posters! So, whenever I become dedicated in a story concept and just get into the story, I soon see it as a full length movie and come up with movie poster.
The drawing below is a drawing of a poster I created for a story I created: the Elite Squad Force.
This came out pretty bossome, so I might digitally colorize it.
