Taking a Holiday from Furaffinity (To work on Major film)
8 years ago
Hey guys, been a while huh?
Been mulling this over for a few weeks, I think it's best I make a wee journal discussing this as to no longer leave people waiting in the dark.
I'M GOING TO BE TAKING BREAK FROM FURAFFINITY (AND OTHER ART SITES) FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS.
I've tried squeezing in time to work on trades and comms but it is simply not working and just messing me up in all sorts of ways. I'm barely keeping up with my uni deadlines, without bringing in other work into the mix.
So for now, I think it's best I have a complete break away from online art stuff. If any commissioners wants a refund, please don't be afraid to note be and I'll happily oblige if applicable.
For those of you happy to wait, I thank you deeply. I hope some understanding can be made here. And I'll do my best to make sure you get an awesome (more skilled!) piece a few months down.
I'll be checking notes every so often so if you're in dire need to contact me, feel free to send a note for now!
I won't go into details, but I've just had a dip in mental and physical health recently and I cant afford to fail my degree at the last hurdle. I need some time to breathe, rest, then come back stronger than ever.
For those interested, I'm a final year animation student. Those familiar will probably understand the stress and struggles of such students. It would be almost comedic if I wasn't living it right now!
Most other animation degrees allocate about one academic year for their students to create their major film.
Our course gives us 4 months.
It just....Isn't enough time for a major film.
Simply Isn't.
I don't know how I'll do it honestly.
So uhh, here's my original pitch piece!

My film will be an illustrative short about a girl and her pet Megalosaurus trying to escape the apocalypse.
If all goes well, you'll see it in a few months.
For now, it's time to start some storyboards. :')))
Again, thanks for reading and I hope this is understandable. I didn't want to break myself off entirely from the online art scene, but I've struggled too long to do so. So, it's a short goodbye for now. I look forward to returning with a spark.
See you soon
