Lately I've been rather down in the dumps (haha)
I've had no inspiration to make any movies/games. I'm out of motivation to continue the games I've started (and are almost done).
To me money (from sponsorship) is, to me, not a motivator. I could care less about making money. The only reason I'd get sponsorship is to just make some quick cash and go spend it on something I can only buy online. Which isn't much.
So really the only reason I make games/movies is just because I got a good idea and I said "Hey this should be fun to make right?" Well usually it is. But alas, lately it isn't. I just can't stand and animate for more than 10 minutes straight. I've lost all motivation to animate.
Of course this isn't the first time this has happened to me. I've gone through this many times and every single time I just .... blej ... don't wanna animate x(
Even as I make this post I have a game (Garry's Mod) open that I switch to every tiem I finish a sentence. I just can't seem to keep my attention on the freaking post.
Dammit. I was going to go and make
Garry's Mod a link. So I went to garrysmod.com to copy and paste the link. Then I end up searching around the news posts seeing what's new. And I went and found this little beauty. Further proof of my short attention span. (Should also prove to be a fun game mode :3)
More evidence: Lollipop. Many of you (well some) have seen my movie called Lollipop. Well, the movie was really for a little competition down here we call "Tech Fair". Of course I won first place. Everybody else had to use SwishMax to animate while I go to use Flash 8. Unlucky them :/ Also I'm just the best animator (to my knowledge) around here. Which is pretty sad.
It's also sad that almost nobody here has heard of Newgrounds :( Everybody here will point to YouTube before Newgrounds. I'm always telling them to go to Newgrounds though xP
So in conclusion this means 2 things:
One, I have a very short attention span. And 2, I have lost all inspiration to continue animating.
Of course, thank the gods, I will get back my inspiration. I always manage to do this. I guess I just get kinda mad when I loose the inspiration x|
It's also rather frustrating that I have this 'great' idea in my head. I think it would make a great movie. But I know myself. I'll begin the movie and just stop before I even reach teh middle because an even better idea will come! x|
Also kinda frustrating is that I'm not so sure I have the skill to pull it off. It looks awesome in my head but my animating skills are far from where they should be to accomplish this.
So by now I'm sure I've forgotten what I was ranting about at the top. I'll have a look then.

Ah, yes inspiration.
So another thing came into this silly ol' head o' mine. Empire (maybe). The sequel to Eldest (which was the sequel to Eragon). I like the books. Alot. I've read Eragon and Eldest 3 times (wow) And I rarely re-read books :/ The movie I haven't watched, nor do I have the will to do it. And I just don't want to.
I'm pretty sure I've told you much of what has happened (and is) to my head xD I just hope it'll be over soon so I can finish a flash :O
I guess one reason is that school is near (next week). But I know the real reason. But I'm not telling you >:( It's my reason. Go away. why did you read this? God you must be bored :/
As am I. Which is why I'm going back to Garry's Mod. Wohoo! ZOMBEH SURVIVAL!!!
Until next time,
