channels

Thanks to the software workshop I have discovered the joy of working with spot channels.
This is the future. The future is now.

Its so easy to change the whole colour
So I don't have to make colour decisions before beginning
And it changes according to the opacity

Bumpers/Stings/Idents

Nickelodeons old animated bumpers are really great.
Simple animation and ideas, fun stuff, fun stuff

I think this is the beginning of a new obsession.
Bumpers in general.

It would've been more convenient if this had struck while I was researching stings for 504.......

oh well

reference blogs for 505 and general use

gonna fill them with visual journal reference imagery so i dont run out of things to draw
