Am I back? I'm back!!!! Yes!!! Hahahahahaha... Oh, that is the saddest fox I have ever seen... Click on the picture if you want to go visit the site where I got that. Oh, on other news I just did another interview with a good fellow by the name of ActiveObjectX, his video was really well done, and I really couldn't pass up the chance to see if he would be willing to share some of his secrets with me and of course you my wonderful followers. Here is the interview and the video is below that. Also, remember to like the channel or video to subscribe and to follow and comment for more wonderful news by me. -Stray.
1. Your artwork looks really cool, where did you develop that kind of style?
I normally to draw bubble eyed cartoony characters or funky looking stick figures. I wanted to make a dramatic story so neither of those styles were going to work. I drew some anime and disney inspired characters and then started to mesh them with my normal drawing style. Eventually I ended up with the designs we see in the movie.
2. Have you always been this good at animations?
Hahaha, no. Just look at some of my older animations on Newgrounds. It's pretty clear when I started out I had no idea what I was doing. It took me quite awhile before I got the hang of animation or even drawing in general.
3. Have you always liked animating?
When I first started animating I didn't enjoy it but really liked how finished animations looked. Basically I would animate thinking about the finished product rather than focusing on doing good animation. Now I actually enjoy the process. I don't know when the shift happened but I'm glad it did.
4. When did you first start drawing?
Pretty young. Maybe 5 or 6 years old. For the longest time I only drew stick figure comics and showed zero improvement with my drawing capabilities. Even though my drawings didn't change much, the stories themselves were always improving. I was learning about framing shots, pacing, character development from all those years of stick figure comics.
5. If you have any advice for any of the readers out there what would it be?
Just keep making things! Don't focus on pleasing other people, just focus on making what you want to make! Practice makes perfect. Also, listen to a lot of music! I find a lot of inspiration from the music I listen to.
6. Last and Final question, what are your future dreams? Do they still involve animating or are they different?
I definitely plan on animating in the future, I don't ever want to stop! Currently, I'm working on a bunch of stuff and each movie is completely different. I would like to release stuff more frequently. I just want the next movie I release to be better than my last! I think in the future I'm looking to write and direct my own feature films. It'll be a few years before I start to pursue that goal.
