WEEKLY UPDATES! 11-06-2016

WEEKLY UPDATE!

Upload consistency was broken this week, but that doesn't theres no progress...XD

* A new kind of content that I'll be uploading more often on the channel was published this week.

I'll be doing more Animation Timelapse in the future so make sure to SUBSCRIBE!

* Also, I failed to create another video because procrastination(playing WarFrame..hehe), baby sitting and the Channel Frederator Network is alive again!

It turns out that the months of seemingly having a hiatus from the Network was actually caused by a amerge between the Frederator Network and Rainmaker entertainment. Now that they're back they actually have a lot in store for us partners and also the postponed Pokemon Collab was finally resumed. I took another part on it by taking on another Pokemon. I already did Meowth and now I'm going to animate Persian.

But unlike Meowth, I won't be doing it in 3D. Because the deadline is really close and I don't really want to put too much time on it since because of it I have to delay the 9 animation....again. hehe. ANYWAYS! I experimented on 2D animation within Blender and the results are very satisfying. Just check out the video below. XD

NEXT WEEK!

* I am gonna finish the Persian animation and also try to create the TutLapse video on how I did it.

* After that, I will be finishing the 9 animation. It PROBABLY won't be a Halloween special anymore....probably. XD Just keep an eye out for it because I'm really gonna put some time working on it and make it a production quality animation...Hehe (gulp)

THAT IS ALL!

Over and Out.

WEEKLY UPDATES! 10-31-2016

WEEKLY UPDATE!

Finally! Construction is done at home! It did disable me from finishing up the 9 animation though, but I still managed to upload videos,

* The final part of the Gregor in Blender TutLapse series was published last week.

The Gregor model is also available for download FOR FREE.

Click Here to Download!

* Also published a quick amateur vlog explaining some stuff about my hair. XD

THIS WEEK!

* I plan to really work on 9 this week and also make more Blender Tutorials and Vlogs that would explain or clarify a lot of stuff about my plans here on Doodle Notes. :)

THAT IS ALL!

Over and Out!

WEEKLY UPDATES! 10-25-2016

WEEKLY UPDATE!

A late update but consistency on uploads is still intact. :)

* Despite the dusty, noisy construction happening at home, I still managed to finish a video on how I gave a hair on the Gregor model that I started last year! Here's PART 6 of the Gregor TutLapse series:




* I also managed to edit together a recording I did to create this Blender Art:

Here's the resulting Speed Art video:

THIS WEEK!

* Not really sure what the plan is this week... Construction at home is coming to an end and I guess I'm just waiting for it to be over so I can finally animate in peace for the 9 animation.

* One thing that's for sure though is that the final PART of the Gregor modeling TutLapse series will be published tomorrow(10-26-2016).

THAT IS ALL!

Over and Out!

WEEKLY UPDATE! 10-17-2016

WEEKLY UPDATE!

Things are looking up! Another week of consistency and already I can see some results: Subs, Views and Watch time is increasing! Also the revenue! If I keep at it I might just reach the 1000 sub milestone! But yeah! Here are last week's progress:

* Published the first of another kind of content that I'll be doing more often on the 2nd channel: a GIMP tutorial video.


* And another Blender How To video also published last week covering how I render my animations in Blender!


* I also finished giving Gregor a hair, which marks my final work on the model. I plan to give Gregor's concept a fix, which means I'll be remodeling him. I'm not satisfied with how the model looks right now so instead of just fixing it up, I decided to do the whole thing again. Would be a lot easier and it would really give me great comfort later on when I'm animating him.

THIS WEEK

* Just watch out for more Blender HOW TOs and TutLapse videos coming this week. One of the TutLapse you might see this week is Gregor's HAIR STYLING TutLapse and also a Texture Mapping TutLapse. I'm also planning to create tutorials on how to use Render Layers in Blender. SO stay tuned for that! Or Subscribe to my 2nd Channel to know when it's up!

* I also plan to really get started on the 9 animation already. The construction at home had made it difficult for me to muster enough concentration to focus on making the storyboard for the animation. Plus I have to take care of my 3-year-old sister. So it's kinda tough "getting in the zone". But I'll try to get the animation started this week. Also, I'll be making daily progress reports on my Patreon from now on. I will be introducing my Patreon page properly before the year ends or early next year. :)

THAT IS ALL!

Over and Out.

WEEKLY UPDATE! 10-10-2016

WEEKLY UPDATE!

A late update here. I was not home yesterday. ANYWAYS!

Not much progress last week.

The construction at home made it really difficult to make videos. Besides taking care of my baby sister, I also have to endure the noise and have to keep an eye on the workers. But despite that, I did manage to upload on schedule. :)

* Another BLENDER HOW TO video uploaded last week where I share a bit of my knowledge on Rigging.



* And the FINAL PART of the 9 TutLapse is also published last week.



* I did not make much progress on the animation. It's really difficult to focus when you know you have to do other things and there's so much noise. So I just did a quick test through creating a Blender Art. I'm trying to achieve the volumetric effect in Blender using only the Internal renderer. The result is this:

I'll be making a tutorial on this. :)

THIS WEEK!

* I'll try to get started on animating the 9 animation. And If I can't do that, I'll create more tutorials and timelapse videos. The 2nd channel videos are easier to do than the main channel ones.

THAT IS ALL!

Over and Out.

WEEKLY UPDATES! 10-02-2016

WEEKLY UPDATE!

My workflow is starting to stabilize a bit. Still need to fix A LOT of stuff, but here are the updates for this week:

• A new BLENDER HOW TO video is published this week! Just sharing a trick I learned after years of rigging. XD
  
  
• And PART 2 of the 9 TutLapse series is also published this week. Covering how I textured 9 in Blender.
  
  
• I also gave an update on The Underland Project on DeviantArt. It's best explained there! CLICK HERE TO READ IT!
  

NEXT WEEK!

• Just look forward for more Blender HOW TOs in the next coming weeks and also PART 3 of the 9 TutLapse series!
• I'll also finish the 9 animation in 2 weeks! It will be published on November!

THAT IS ALL!

Over and Out!

WEEKLY UPDATE! 09-25-2016

WEEKLY UPDATE!

Almost missed an upload day! But still a progressive week.

* Finished another ART TRADE with Kaamuz, a fellow Channel Fredrator Network member.

Meet Harluny Quyinn!

 Here's a Speed Art video of how I did it in GIMP:

Harluny-Quyinn is actually Kaamuz' original character Luny cosplaying as Harley Quinn:

You can watch his webtoon, The Luny and Milky Show, here:


And also check out his YOUTUBE CHANNEL!

* And also, despite the construction that is currently happening in a part of our house and the company of a lot of people, I managed to create the FIRST PART of the 9 TutLapse Series.

The video lacked energy because my confidence just drops when I know people will hear me recording, but yeah!

NEXT WEEK!

* I'll compensate the lack of energy on 9 TutLapse PART 1 by delivering a more energetic PART 2 video!

* Also look forward for another Blender HOW TO video.

THAT IS ALL!

Over and Out.

WEEKLY UPDATE! (February 1, 2015)

A late update due to Internet problems

but better late than never, right? O.O

* GARRISON BEAR PRODUCTION IS FINISHED!!! XD

Watch it here: http://youtu.be/-GXUQgrIIFg

Just go to the link and comment about it on YouTube! Took me 5-6 months to do that thing and I won't be starting right away with the next(Survey Corps Bear). I need a breather because I got really big ideas for Survey Corps Bear and I need time to think of the best ideas that would be awesome but not give too much work for my gear(a laptop that crashes a lot)....O.O

Anyways!

* I also resumed the production of The Battle.

I blogged about this a year ago(Click here to see those Blogs)

and I'm still going to make use of the progress I had last time like the concept arts.

I remodeled the You character and didn't follow his looks that I did on the concept art.

I also started modeling the Monster character but I still have to make changes.

And although I started production again, I might not be able to finish it right away since I want to do it as perfect as it can be and also I'm gonna try creating an original music score for it.

So yeah. I'll work on The Battle bit by bit throughout the year. :)

* IT'S TIME TO OPEN THE BUSINESS!!!

That's right! I will be opening this business up:

You can read more about it here: 

http://doodlenotesblog.blogspot.in/p/services.html

I just want to point out one thing though:

IT'S ONLY AVAILABLE IN GENERAL SANTOS CITY!

Why?

Because I still have to study how to make long distance transactions and it's just a small business so I won't expand...yet.

Just go to the link above to know more about the services available. :)

* Also, if I don't get any clients next week, I'll be pausing the production for The Battle for a while to create a new Original music video for Valentines day!

Like this one:

I'm gonna make it an official Doodle Notes tradition to create

Music videos about love every February! XD

So yeah! I will record another one of my original composition and make a music video out of it.

I'm also going to include in the tradition that the music videos would be in stop-motion animation but not always a lyric video. Hehe.

* Also! I'll try doing the animation request by TheEvilSugar on my recreation of Baymax:

I'll try to grant the request this month! XD

SO YEAH!

That is all there is!

WEEKLY UPDATE (January 18, 2015)

Lots of progress this week.

Got a bit of a hold back but still rollin'.

* I finished combining passes for a lot of shots on Garrison Bear!

There are 52 shots in total for Garrison Bear and I finished 37 shots already(all of which are final). 15 shots more then I'll move to the application of sound and music. I might be able to finish Garrison Bear next week if given more time.

* Also, I've been changing my posting techniques on our Facebook Page that gave our posts more reach...

WEEKLY UPDATE! (January 11, 2015)

First weekly update of the year!

Let's see what Doodle Notes achieved so far...

 * I spent the first two weeks of 2015 enhancing the BLOG.

The features added to the Blog are:

NEW HOMEPAGE!

Created a static homepage to make the blog look more like an official website for Doodle Notes.

MENU BAR!

Added a menu bar to easily browse through different contents from Doodle Notes.

FILMS PAGE!

Film and video contents.

SERVICES PAGE!

Will be opening for business soon!

BOOKS PAGE!

Doodle Notes' literary works

ABOUT US PAGE!

And a page that'll tell you more about Doodle Notes. Some parts of it are not finished yet though.

 I also updated the cover photo of the Facebook Page.

2015! Here I come!!

So yeah!

Doodle Notes is getting ready for 2015 and I plan

to make this year a fruitful one for the channel. :)

* Next week, I'll try finishing Garrison Bear!

I finished rendering in Blender last year...

...and now I'm moving on to combining all the passes and adding more VFX.

If I don't experience any Baby Titan infestation(which is very unlikely), I might be able to finish Garrison Bear.
But if I'm only given small amount of time to work on it next week, due to some household chores and Baby titan, I'll still try finishing it this month. So yeah. Just pray that I'd be given more time. O.O

ANYWAYS!

THAT'S ALL!

WEEKLY UPDATES - Projects here, projects there!

Been really busy...

Haven't been blogging for the last 2 weeks because of so much thinking and doing stuffs, but anyways....

UPDATES!

* Garrison Bear has been sad...

...because I haven't been making enough progress with his animation.

BUT!

Now he's happy...

...because this week, I've been making progress on the animation by Blender rendering 5 shots! XD

So yeah...Garrison Bear might come out next year or before this year ends so watch out for it.

ALSO!

* I finished writing a workable script of the new Doodle Notes Short film, Black and White.

I'll try my best to do this one perfectly and certainly 1000x better than the last Short Film. I'll be moving in to Pre-Production Stage next week and try to finish the whole production in two weeks. So pray for me.

Just wait for it to be posted on the channel before the year ends or maybe next year,

XD

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST!

* Created a featured animé photo for the 2nd Episode of Doodle Notes' ongoing web series, Animé Addicts.

As you can see, the featured animé on the 2nd episode of the series would be Kuroko no Basket(The Basketball which Kuroko plays). Can't give you much details on it yet. Just watch out for it!

The series will be slowly but surely executed throughout next year and hopefully we can finish it next year. Also, note that, as the series progresses, it will go mor eintense every episode. SO, really, just keep an eye for it! XD

AND THE VERY LAST BUT NOT THE LEAST!!!!

*I recently joined a filmmaking workshop hosted by Direk Teng Mangansakan(Salamindanaw Film Festival)

Salamindanaw workshoppers with Direk Teng Mangansakan. Photo by: Stephen Dick Gonzales

It's actually an awesome experience. I finally learned how the filmmaking industry work in our country. And also I've met other aspiring filmmakers! Makes me feel that I'm not alone. Which is awesome. I kinda wish for the workshop tyo last longer so we could grow our filmmaking realationships even bigger. XD
