Feels somehow like both yesterday and forever ago. You've taken on so much over those years. Just building and building. πŸ’ͺ

Starting the year on the lookout for a new role as a 2D animator, clean up artist or character designer. In the meantime, I'll be working on personal stuff and explore my own style ✨

the anime sfx-making tool!
It's called ANIMEVOX, in big letters up top.
Then there's the controls:

In vertical pairs:
Left:
Pitch Rise
Rise speed

Reverb
Room size

On the right:
Wobble Speed
Wobble Amount

Tone Brightness
Volume

Next is a row of keys:
Randomize - randomizes the sound parameters
UNDO/ REDO - go back to parameters you liked
Export Wav - self explanatory, it saves a copy of the latest sound to your hard drive.

Then the fun buttons, with cute art styles:

IMPACT, sparkle, beam, powerUP, PON, BOOM, slash, woosh

Each produces a preset sound, which then goes through the fx chain.

Hope you enjoy it!

I made a tool that makes retro anime sound effects. Meet AnimeVox!
I made it for a game, but it's free to use.

I'm using the forgotten (but popular in 80s japan) Schroeder reverb algo, and some wobble.

If you find it useful consider supporting me on itch :)

It's pretty short and not difficult. Just think of it as an interactive art book, if that helps.

IIRC, there was reference to Alexa or something in Travel by Bullet and I just assumed it was probably part of the Audible Exclusive contract, no? More of just a voluntary wink/nod?

I realized I basically forgot to share anything after the release of Techrot Encore.

I managed to beg to do another Gemini emote despite working on two Boyband enemies. I tried to make Minerva's emote mirror Velimir's a little, both in the posing, as well as the use of breath.

I know it's silly, but I have owned FFXIII since it came out and haven't touched it yet because I wanted to finish XII first. Our Xbox 360 has just been our occassional DVD player for the last several years. It's gonna get used for gaming again this year! :)

FFXII looking good on a modern 4K OLED TV with increased resolution thanks to PCSX2. My cat is also blocking one corner because she was interested in all the flashing movement on screen for a minute.

NY resolution: 20yrs is long enough. I will finally finish FFXII.
Started in '06, long lapse, learned last year how to copy PS2 memcard to PC so I can continue my playthrough in a way that looks fantastic on a modern TV. Picked up this week. Deciding how much optional content to do before finishing.

Does anybody need a 3D Animator rn for anything at all? I need to get back into work to pay for an Extraction/Crown.
I can animate perfectly fine in Maya and Blender, doing Games/Cinematic/Character Focused Animation.

DM or Email me for examples of my Recent Games Work. Thankyou <3

Cold, but I have tried it hot once and it was delicious too!

Oh yeah, we used to have those serrated spoons too! With wooden handles. Parents must've had 'em since the 70's. Now I cut out every section in advance and use regular spoons.

Grapefruit. Sliced in half through the equator. Seeds scooped out. Carved around every wedge with a knife. Can optionaly sprinkle with sugar if fruit isn't sweet enough. Eat by scooping out each wedge with a spoon. Be sure to squeeze the juice out of what's left so you don't waste it!

Grapefruit is such a nostalgic winter treat for me. Easy, if a tad annoying to prep, but just delightful.

Will I become a stop motion animator? Probably not. It is pretty fun to pose and play around with, though.

Thank you! Modelling, texturing, lighting, rendering, all improved and at first it felt like "oh no, we gotta step up our anim game too or it will look bad" and maybe we did, but all aspects lift each other.
