What's seejayDJ up to?
🕑 Added 2023-10-20 00:27:31 +0000 UTC"What's that (REDACTED) animator been doing? I'm so confused. He was gonna make a spiderman (REDACTED), and then just bailed? Now he's making RWBY?!?!"
I'm re-making RWBY, but that's not important right now. Right now, I'm quitting my real life job to make (REDACTED) animations for you, and posting them online, for FREE, for everyone to see. FULL TIME. That means that after Nov. 1st, if everything goes well, I'll be working on animations all day, every day, for the foreseeable future. There's nothing else I want more than that.
RWBY content is happening. RWBY is this kind of anime, kind of not, web series that I used to be obsessed with. I guess I still am obsessed. The RWBY IP serves as a foundation to show what I have been working towards for the past six months.
Loyal supporters. I'm not gonna lie, this whole thing was way harder than I thought it would be. It's cliche, I know, but seriously thank you. You have no idea how big of a role ya'll played in my life. Can't give specifics, but the past year's been rougghhhhhh. Ya'll kept me going through it all.
Enough sappy shit, here's the deal. I've spent the past 6 months developing a workflow for creating lovely animations quickly. QUICKLY. That 'Quickly' part is important, because the Jinx animation you know and love took four months to complete. Four months for a two and a half minute animation is ridiculous. It is important for more animations like that to be produced more quickly. However, it is also important that the animation quality remains the same.
After 6 months, I believe I now have a workflow that could produce the exact same Jinx animation in less than two weeks. This is why I am quitting my job to make animations for you full time. Ideally, when I go full time, you will get 'Jinx (REDACTED)' level animations every other week.
I've got to get back to work now, but, if you are considering supporting me on here, now is the time to do it. At least for now as I transition to animating full time. It just costs $1 to support me, and always will.

Itβs amazing at what it does, but itβs got a lot of room for improvement

Ah yes. I've used that before. Seemed a bit fiddly, but might give it another shot.

I implemented a program called Cascadeur into my workflow. Itβs a program made specifically for character animators. Itβs designed for creating video game animations, but Iβm using it for videos.

What do you exactly mean by "quickly"? Is it an optimised workflow? Or did you find something else that helps you? I'd like to learn more about this, if possible.

Nice to hear that you are going full time on animations. That Jinx animation was the reason I started supporting you and I will continue to do that!

Glad to see you're transitioning to full time. :V :)
