Day In The Life Of A Part Time Animator

[@Swannica]

Your video is awesome!😊 I always try to listen to music while I'm animating to get some inspiration while drawing. After a few minutes, I can't concentrate and will turn off the music. The cycle repeats and I end up smashing the play & pause button like crazy😂 I'm thankful my music play button is still alive >< This is also very similar to my study dates with friends. I can NEVER have a productive study session when my friends are around. I literally need to be alone with pin-drop silence when I study.

[@Wengsome]

You're awesome Swan! Always glad to have you here. Haha I can relate to your situation just that I've long realized I can never listen to music so that's that. For your study dates its possible because you like to talk and have fun with them over the studying part xD !! Thanks for sharing your thoughts wid me ^^

[@FutureMint]

I usually listen to YT videos while I work (usually game theroy, food theory ect) but occasionally I listen to podcasts

[@Wengsome]

I'm very similar to you. I can listen to Podcasts and people talking (YT videos) but no way for pure music haha. Strange!!!

[@FutureMint]

@@Wengsome yeah when i listen to music i do seem to focus a bit less lol

[@zircthomas8342]

Yo!! So that's what happens in your day. As a part time, you put out quite alot of vids there. And yes 3:23 I do listen to music when working too. It helps filter out people trying to talk to me lol.

[@Wengsome]

I'm just doing what I can in the short periods of time I have each day. Glad to know music helps ya!

[@yk2k_illustrations]

great and interesting timeline of your day to day process man!

[@Wengsome]

Thank you so much! Been wanting to do something like this for so long. Just - didn't quite know if people would find it helpful xD

[@yk2k_illustrations]

3:25 - Yes i listen to music but the music itself kinda has to relate somewhat to the topic im drawing haha . hope that helps !

[@Wengsome]

Awesome. Good to know that you're able to listen to music while you draw. Does that help you get into the mood? When I listen to music, it creates some "noise" instead. Like, I try to draw and animate but instead of getting into the rhythm.. instead I feel like I can't think even if I try to ignore the music lol. Once I remove the music oh I magically am able to continue producing. Totally can't get it.

[@yk2k_illustrations]

@@Wengsomethat's fair haha . what kind of music do you listen to if when trying to draw?😅

[@Baldloon467]

I like to listen to Lofi, it help calms when doing my honework

[@Wengsome]

Aww thanks man! Lofi seems popular nowadays, heard its good for late night studying xD

[@NicholetteBrian]

We both love this! We thinks its awesome that you showed us! You're still our only friend we made on YT/Reddit lol. We don't listen to music when working but recently started listening while doing our van build which has created an a better vibe! You're work is awesome Wengsome. You should do a halloween scary animation

[@Wengsome]

Thank you guys! Yup that's one of the little things I do in my daily life and whenever I'm not bogged down by my RL work. You're like the gateway to me remembering my past, and showing me glimpse of the future (in the states) haha. But that aside its always great to see you both in your wonderful adventures. Makes me feel pretty alive since most of the time whenever I do my content its confined to the table for like... 100 hours hahahaha. Keep em coming ya! Ohhh and PLEASE let me know if you ever do some rockhounding in California! Would absolutely love that.

[@NicholetteBrian]

@@Wengsome Thats the point of our channel is to bring people along and to also show they can do whatever they want if they just go for it! We will definitely be doing some rockhounding in California at some point and will let you know!

[@shadedglade4475]

It do apparently be like that…

[@Wengsome]

Yup indeed. Life of an animator : )

[@JNDS.Creates]

I find it very hard to listen to anything while working, a song can come on and totally distract me from my flow state if it doesn’t jive with what I’m trying to do. Podcasts can be a bit easier and dosnt break the flow as much, no idea why. I wish I had a schedule worth talking about. Lol. Work and family leaves me with like 30min-2hr a day to get art work made.

[@Wengsome]

Heyya JDNS. That's pretty much me as well. I can listen to podcasts while doing work without any problem. Can't explain why either. Music however, serves to distract more than calm me down lol. And for schedules, yeah totally get that. My full time day job doesn't leave me when much time too. Pretty similar to you, just have to find that small slot to do something with it xD. Hope you do get some spare time or holidays where you can put out those works of yours. Hit us with some fantasy art!

[@biac_torrid]

Really like yoyr animations ♡

[@Wengsome]

Appreciate that a bunch!

[@XerpollAnimation]

I only listen to music during cleanup and color stage.

[@GQTEA]

haha great video I thought I wasn't the only one who can't work with music

[@Wengsome]

You're not alone buddy. I've tried many different combinations but end up non-productive lol. Good to know too xD

[@sandeepyadav-dt5nt]

Bro can you tell which font you use in this video ? Plz

[@Wengsome]

It's a font called Supersonic Rocketship

[@PhilipMurphy8Extra]

The video is great but it took a while to find because the Algorithm didn't suggest it to me, Nothing new there really

[@Wengsome]

Thanks Philip! Appreciate that a lot even if it wasn't pushed to you : )

[@Thando_987]

Lol same cant do music buuuuuuut try podcasts those work for me.

[@Wengsome]

Awww yeah! Podcasts work but other types of music just don't. Even tried without headsets, still turns up as distractions ;(

[@Notfilename_2]

This is bed room of him

[@krazytoonzlive8115]

Make separate video on automatic lip sync pls plss

[@Wengsome]
