Motivation Lack

Posted by dirtshake - July 12th, 2008


Work on Little Frog Duel II has pretty much slowed to a halt. When I find the time to animate, which comes rarely nowadays, I have no motivation to work on it. It's weird since I keep thinking about it during the day, how awsome the final product will be, how great the music I found for the fight scene is, how I actually have a storyboard this time that will probably work, and just how better I have become at animating. I want to show it in this movie, but for some reason I have no motivation at all.

I've looked around for ideas to get over this slump. One that seems promising is to work on smaller projects at the same time so I have something to switch to if I get bored of working on one thing. I've been looking for some collabs on the forums and I think I've found a good one to take a stab at.
The "Prayer" by Disturbed Collab organized by ShortMonkey is now my new project, joining of course with LFD2. Now I have something fresh to work on if I get bored of LFD2 and vice versa. Hopefully this will work. And if not, at least it's more practice for LFD2.

Oh yeah, plenty of spots open in the collab. Check it out if your a fan of Disturbed or just want to animate something.

In other news, McDonalds McSkillet Burritos are'nt too shabby. YUM!!!

wait how the hell did YOU manage to get up at like 8??

Pulled an all nighter to get my sleep scheduale back on track. It's been fucked up lately.

...ic.... so what's your plan for today

News flash Baby...We had Mcskillet burritos when they came out..for free...During "zero hour". But of course, being so busy sampling sooo many different breakfast dishes you must've forgotten. lol I'm just messing with you hun.
Aaaand Can't wait to watch you animate all this stuff! ^_^

Ha. Thanks babe.

yo, you up for laser tag this tuesday? earlier if possible maybe

If your going to ask me stuff just PM me brah.

Don't even sweat it man, the motivation will come. It happens to me alot, it'ts not so much a lack of motivation, as it is just pure procrastination. I'm workin then I get distracted lol, good to know that your method is workin for you! two projects is a good idea, as you can switch between both if your ever bored.
Hey man I liked your first one, and I await your next continuation!

Peace easy D.S

Thanks. The two project thing did actually work out. A quick short gave me just enough distraction to get me back goin if that makes any sense at all.
So things are moving along again, even if it's just slowly.
