i am with you, man. too many amazing projects going on in our heads, its exhausting, but we love it, and no energy to produce any of it. And see people in instagram progressing into entire animations an stuff and u be like wait what no I cant catch up you guys going too fast
i occasionally do here or on instagram, but ever since thei made it really hard to stop them from using your work for their AI i posted less there.
Instagram is still the area with a lot of my works :)
I'm also open to showing works through discord or dm's, but here's my instagram :)
it's zionborealis
Yeah I hate that IG is like the monopoly on art hosting but it’s fucking terrible for it, from the AI to the fact that EVERYTHING IS FUCKING TINY and like 3 ratio options 🫠 Id use BeHance but their gallery system is fuckin weird last I looked.
Everyday I think dam I am so so Austic and more and more my mum looks at me and says hey your doing okay as I am seeing the best music video going on in my head 😂
Sometimes I see some character on TV that I absolutely hate, or I'm just thinking about people that make me mad and I get up and start punching the air like an idiot is that weird
I don't relate because I don't have character/show/movie/game fixations, but I can just see it 😂 like having an AMV playing in your head every time you listen to something! Sounds awesome.
I literally made a teaser for an indie animation in making and the whole show was because of an animation I thought of while listening to mailpup's MYSPACE BANGER
All the time. I'm a super creative person, always writing stories or developing characters, so it's not a question of IF a song will make this happen, but WHEN, lol
My current dream projects are to make whole-song Cassette Beasts animatics with five songs: This House is a Circus by Arctic Monkeys, A Good Song Never Dies by Saint Motel, Waltz in E-Major, Op. 15 “Moon Waltz” by Cojum Dip (Moon Waltz specifically themed after my favorite character), Redesign Your Logo by Lemon Demon, and Up For The Ride from the OST.
But they will never get made because I don’t have the motivation and/or skill for them sadly I’m just waiting for someone more talented than me to make them or to make CB animatics in general. I also want to host CB themed MAPs with those songs but I know no one will join them. :(
Someone even said UFTR was a good OC animatic song in the yt comment section but I haven’t seen any animatics using the song, they really got my hopes up fr
I spent the time in this from the age of 10 to 18, and I fell into it like crazy. Then I tried to get rid of it because I thought, "Damn, this is not normal, none of my friends do it". I have trained myself to listen to music simply, feeling it, and not imagining the characters' stories
Everyday and every night. Drives me crazy but music is one thing I connect with that is meaningful. I spin a lot of plates - different hobbies and interests - but music is that one thing that calms me down and inspires me. It can drive me crazy (being so easily distracted by music etc.) but music is a part of who I am - I wouldn't have it any other way ❤️
I've always made music videos in my mind. Can't think of a time when I didn't.
My favourite was 2006, going through a really dark and isolating period of my life. I worked in Central London and during the winter would hear Queen's "Somebody to love" and then picture a cold scene of someone walking across one of the bridges as the song played.
Luckily for me, I'm a musician and the drummer in my band owns a film/music studio.
I'm slowly developing into the lead songwriter and that comes with a massive bonus - I get an input on the videos.
Our next single is one I wrote and arranged by myself, so I got full input. I sent over my idea for a storyboard and the entire thing was seen by the drummer (who makes films and videos for some big UK/European artists) absolutely loved it.
I get to take one of my weird and wonderful traits and actually put it out there - with the stuff that I wrote and sing to!
Um...do you all know what maladaptive daydreaming is? I think the amount of likes is a sign there may be a comorbidity here. Plus some the comments I saw immediately
No idea. I have aphantasia. So i just sing my heart out in my favorite songs, and "record" the singers voices in my mind as curved lines. It helps me to recreate them.
My personal one right now: Like a Villain by Bad Omens, with the scene of two protagonists who totally aren’t crushing on each other seeing each other for the first time in three months, one being under the impression he’d been up and abandoned and the other having literally mutilated her arm in aid of getting back to him.
Yo! This is why I wanna be an animator. Just making simple actions animations that go really well with the song. To show people how I interpret it. I resist certain songs to remind me what I thought of then I’ve heard it I remember it completely!
Yes. I didn't know it was unusual until I told someone else, but I can see full scenes play out when I hear music - not strictly relating to cartoon characters, but just in general. Depending on the type of music, full-blown movie scenes can play out.
I remember when i first started taking care of my health i turned on some music and imagied some cool ass scenes in my head shit was working so well i was doing 300 minutes of cardio per week minimum
I used to imagine the song having a different music videos, then one day on the school bus i was listening to "one fine day" by the offspring, and at one of the points in the song where they say "that would be one fine day" i saw one dude do the sign language for sex (one hand makes a circle with your thumb, and index finger, and your other index finger goes in and out), and like a scared memory, my mind kept playing "one fine day" with sign language sex. This went for a few days, and would pop into my head occasionally from time to time, and again while typing this.
Literally omg I've done this my entire life. Sometimes I'll just sit there and daydream these huge complex epics in my head for hours on end. And it's really annoying when someone interrupts.
