[ Six Months Left ] You know... how come I'm not allowed on all these sites like ToyHouse and SoundCloud and stuff, but there's ten-year-olds gaining millions of views on YouTube? I want to be one of those pre-teens making incredible things. But... in order to make something I've always wanted to make [an indie animated show], I need to get age-restricted sites to communicate with a possible team. How are these children making quality animations, art, and music without repercussions? I lied >once<. And I still got caught. I get it's for safety reasons, but once you scour YouTube for all these children, you're gonna realize that maybe, just MAYBE, there might be something wrong here. I wait. But I don't wanna wait until I'm past my prime to start creating. And that prime is technically now, since if I get older, more-likely-than-not I'm gonna have way too much on my plate, and I might not be able to create the things I want. So, what do I do? [ Music ] BPM/Tempo: 130 Time Signature: 4/4 Key: C, C# Length: 4 min Genre: Orchestral, Cinematic? Original Song Singer: @EveEditor/@LynExperiences Created on FL Studio Time Taken: ~1 week [ Animation ] Main Animation Styles: Tweening, Frame-By-Frame Created with Scratch Vector and Magma [ Talk ] Holy crap making this was really difficult. Not only did I have to animate a FULL MV, but I forgot to save the project which had most of the vocals... recovered it though I tried to go for a childlike vibe here. I think I did pretty well, since 1. The melody is relatively simple. It's in C major. 2. The vocals are recorded on an iPad. I really thought I was a good singer up until now. Who knows, maybe I'll be better in the future! 3. I went with a lot of cinematic instruments but gave the woodwinds a lot of time in the spotlights. I've always considered woodwinds to be quite childish. 4. There is a >lot< of ambition in the lyrics. I've always been quite ambitious when it comes to my creative stuff. Vocal chopping is really hard because I SUCK at keeping things on-beat The iPad kept in all the weird stuff :/ First 4-minute song. I'm really proud of this, but I think the mixing is inherently BAD!!!!! It also amazes me that I somehow wrote a whole song's worth of lyrics in English class... Alright, the animation part was a PAIN. I've wanted to get better at frame-by-frame since everyone else does it and I DON'T THINK it's gonna be good for my animated series if I just do everything by tweening. The frame-by-frame doesn't really look pleasing to the eye. Blame Scratch idk I kinda got a bit lazy xddd For some reason, at the last chorus, I switched up Kykii's design because I was getting tired of seeing the same old Kykii vector. The end is absolutely heavenly, don't miss out on it!
