Nimonisms :-)

Someone has probably already asked you this but do you have any tips on studying/understanding perspective? I keep trying to find resources to learn but none of them really stick or are actually useful

so I'm hoping that your issue isn't just figuring out the difference between 1-point, 2-point, and 3-point perspective and how it works, because there are tons and tons of resources available for that, and I'm guessing what people tend to get tripped up on is what you're supposed to be doing with your grid.

I'm definitely far from being an expert on understanding perspective, but I'll share some of the things that helped ME finally Get It.

Things like eye level and different camera angles can be a GREAT tool to use when doing a comic or storyboard between multiple characters of different heights!! I actually drew an example of this exact thing for a friend about a month ago (I used adventure time characters bc they're easy to draw and have a good height variety):

You can use camera angles like this to add variety to your shots, and even use it to help convey something emotional (using a down-shot on a character to show that they FEEL small, use an up-shot on a character to make them look more intimidating, etc etc)

hope this helps!

As someone who ran a movie theatre while Midsommar was running and regularly heard arguments in the lobby… this checks out.

thinking about the scene in barbie where she asks for permission to be herself and she's told she doesn't need permission, and no one can give her permission for that, because it's just something you start doing

thinking about the scene in barbie where they say you don't need to be exceptional to have worth and deserve love, because just getting through the day is often hard enough

also thinking about the scene in barbie where barbie tells a bunch of construction workers she doesn't have a vagina and the construction workers who have no context beyond her being a pretty girl are like "oh okay that's cool"

Why is no one talking about how after watching the Barbie movie and stepping out of the cinema your eyes have to readjust to a world that is tragically devoid of pink

Ok I swore that I was gonna finish this comic digitally before I posted it but you know what screw it there’s like 6 pages drafted I can get away with posting this sneak peak!

Another canon divergence / alternate universe idea I have inspired by this amazing animatic that’ll spoil the fun if I share it rn (but credit will be given and edited in very very soon! So please note this is based on another work and can’t be wholly credited to me <3 )

That being said!!! I’m excited to share the finished work! And I’m 1000% open to Au name ideas right now I only have Ashson!Au and it!!! Sounds!!!! Horrible!!!!
