    A good tip is: Be yourself, but be aware of what others are doing. And try to put your own interpretation alongside what many of your influences have taught you. How would you approach things an inspiration has done in your own way? Just a cool thing to think about

      Thats why I just started a youtub channel. Been drawing for 2 years without much progress because no one was there to spot my mistakes and get me out of this habit I have . I don't know if this will work though. I was never guided and being self thought seems to not have worked. I'll ve shameless and even upload all my mistakes without editing them out...

    What makes these stand out to me is not even style or staging but the story. The stories are tight, they make me wanna watch more. Don't put too much emphasis on style, you can have the prettiest looking drawings out there but what is it worth if the characters don't do anything?

      Speaking from (kinda?) an experience, usually if you have a hard time getting motivated when being told to do something it's wise to do something you feel mild about so your spirit doesn't fade from it but it doesn't make the job less fun either- so that way, when you get home from whatever you do, you can have more free-roam fun doing what you love and making more ideas? it might not help you but it saved me from burnout a ton

    project city is the coolest thing I've ever seen.... even tho I cannot afford it right now (I'm between jobs atm), I feel like waaaay more people can now learn what they are actually interested in doing with their lives than say during Disney etc. times, heck, even CalArts I'd say is the last generation compared to this now. Ethan, don't be humble now and just accept that the whole world (of animation at least, but still, IT'S HUGE) owes you. You're flipping the industry upside down and making it 10000 times cooler than it used to be. What a time to be alive. Can't wait to see where your students end up and see their work! Hope I can also attribute to all this at some point.

How do you handle the stress of needing to look for a new show while wrapping on the one you're currently on? Do you feel like you've reached a point in your career where you no longer have to worry about stuff like that? I've been working in the industry for 3+ years now and I'm finding it hasn't gotten easier but I manage to find work, one time it took me 9 months and it SUCKEDDD

    Vegabond generally had great art from the start but got even better with already godly amazing art but somehow the manga artist kept getting better
    And about berserk is that the whole art progress of the artist is in the manga because in the beginning of berserk the art was just above average artist but in the end the art got so godly that he went to top 10 manga artist ( R.I.P to kentaro muira) i would love a video on this topic

    • @doomsage165
      @doomsage165 Год назад +3

      Come up with a summary of what you'd like to happen in the stor, like 3 sentences long; you can do it in your head if youd like, just as if youre summing it up for a friend. Then draw the most important moments in the story, your "key moments" . Once you've done that, if youre happy with it you flesh out everything that happens in between.

    • @anblueboot5364
      @anblueboot5364 Год назад +1

      As a Dungeon Master homebrewing and improvising whole campaigns:
      Most of the time I have a rough idea for a setting and something I/my game group would like to Explore.
      So 1st think about the setting, it doesn't need to be worked out to 100%. Descriptive key words might be enough. Idk jungle, sci fi tech = magic, Ruins of foreign cities, AI Robots existing as gods organizing human life.
      Than think about the Theme and story hook which breaks the status quo and get things rolling.
      Human enclave lost their AI god and the village Tries to restructure and organize, Protagonist Tries to survive the Change.
      From there I would roughly think about an overarching plot, not for the whole book/story but just the current chapter.
      As DnD uses a lot of improvising, having a complete overarching plotline thought out might just be wasted energy so I think in chapter for chapter. Using my players assumptions and thoughts as the baseline for the next chapter, Integrating their background stories and what ever they fed while roleplaying.
      The list goes on but that is how I start out.
      The way I organize everything is a Mixtur between physical (when I feel inspired on the go) and Digital Notes.
      Digital:
      Tables for organizing a locations: Theme, story hooks + MC guffins and items of curiosity, npc working against the players goals, npcs needed to make something feel Alive. Npc are also organized by fractions.
      Beware: your story might not need such tables thought out too deep. But playing dungeons and dragons I must Consider everything thst Covers the basics so the Player can roam around and discover things whereever they go.
      In a story, like an animation where every character and story beat is railroaded and not Happening by pure Chance/accident. You don't need 100s of 1000s of unique blacksmiths witb their own story and background knowledge, gossip knowledge to throw hints at different local mysteries. Cause your Protagonist only encounters them by your wish.
      My rule of thumb: even for the smallest village you need 10 named npcs to make it feel Alive.

    Hey Ethan. This one is off topic, but is there a difference between horizon line and eye level. I tried creating a 1 point perspective grid from a 3D grid in Photoshop, but when I tried the lines don't match the image, but when I put a horizontal line above the horizon line, it matched the 3D perspective grid. So I had a line for the horizon line and another line above it, which made me think, is horizon line different from eye level.
