If I were to 'simplify' the reason it would be because I have lack of motivation. but in reality it is because of poor planning and lack of patience that cause the destruction of motivation among other things. I've been taking a break from making two cartoons mainly due to the lack of motivation but there was a cause of this; being impatience. lost interest in my alien and cow cartoon because I didn't fully storyboard it or even make a plot point, I just went ahead barley halfway through the storyboards, animating a couple of shots because I thought I would just storyboard the rest. but of course that didn't happen. this happen two other times; one where Eggson the egg went on an acid trip and one with the promised remastered old shorts. I storyboarded the first sequence, Immediately animated it and never finished it. not to mention I would put too much effort into the animation and finished, cleaned and colored each shot as I went, putting pressure and stress on me.

however, I have now wised up and realize I need better planning. I'm making a cartoon that I've written and planed on storyboarding this weekend. right now I'm trying to figure out how the backgrounds should look.

I'm also gonna tryout a new animation technique that mixes: limited traditional animation and (mild) cutout/flash animation.

note that I'm not going to reuse premade assets (mainly for cutout animation) in fact I'm only using cutout animation for lip-sync, animated props and occasionally miscellaneous movements.

wlep that raps everything up. I'll see you when I see you.
