More explosion FX. 2DFX is really therapeutic…

The real trick to motion design is just having a bunch of nulls. Unnamed and only half in use.

A frame by frame rough pass for this gummy guy falling in a hole.

Windows 11 just randomly started to automatically trash my files because they couldn’t find the path… they changed(??) That was a frightening 15 minutes of trouble shooting.

Take me down to the Parallax city where the far moves slow and the near moves quickly

How do you personally refer to the phase of creative projects where you (temporarily) lose hope/enthusiasm/optimism/focus? Valley of despair, liminal phase, the dip, etc. It’s a kinda fun exercise to recognize it when you are in it. So it’s nice to name it.

I'm old. If you're not, listen to this. Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder. Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever. It's literally never been more important.

Here’s one I enjoyed animating in Moho. It’s so much fun to utilize frame by frame and interpolating key frames together. #animation #moho

A little UFO for yesterday’s #motiontober2025 prompt. Might just do the one. That counts right..

One of my favorite things about Toon Boom Harmony are the built in perspective guides. Really top notch and easy.

It’s a shame libraries are closed on Sundays. Feels like the perfect day and mood for them.

Oddly specific, but any recommendations for a course on intermidiate character acting for rigged animation?

After all these years in my motion design career, I still can’t find the perfect color combos for the labels in After Effects.

I don’t need to use AI to make art because I’m pure of heart and full of joy and whimsy

Adolescence is a fantastic show. Absolutely loved the script and acting. You can tell that a lot of thought went into creating nuanced and believable characters. Heavy subjects though, be warned.

Here’s an animation for the #ayoanim challenge, which had the prompt “burst” for this week. I used Adobe Animate for this one. Good times. #animation #framebyframe #adobeanimate

I’m still bummed with how Adobe Animate seems to be fizzling out. (No 2025 release?) It was such a nice workflow for sprinkling vector frame by frame into After Effects projects. I like using it for fx and it communicates so well with other Adobe apps.

Having a fun moment where my aging machine is crashing a ton and rendering so very slowly, but it’s okay because a new machine has been ordered. I just got a couple more weeks to get through the slog.

I’m looking for the perfect term to describe “dummy text” that appear as lines like these. What do you and your circle refer to them as?

Brainless digital rock stack doodles. Why are rocks so interestingly to draw?

Been archiving a bunch of personal experiment files that I mostly don’t remember doing. This, after going to the Corgi raves last summer.

My USPS watercolor fan art, I guess! Their new vans are so rad.

I left Twitter back in 2017ish. Super happy to see the motion graphic community coming here, I’ve missed hearing the updates.

Okay, updated my #starter #pack again. If you’re #mograph related person, this might be helpful when you kick start your journey here on #Bluesky! It will be greatly appreciated if you repost this. go.bsky.app/PVYUmUa

Happy New Year’s Eve! Here’s a little experiment between After Effects and Blender. I had a fun time combining the two. #aftereffects #blender3d #animation

Doodling in Callipeg while listening to TV on the couch. It’s a fun work flow. #animation #framebyframe #callipeg #lavalamp

Really enjoying Moho. It’s been both surprisingly deep and yet easy to pick up. #moho #mohoanimation #animation #dogs

Here’s an exercise for fun tonight. Was originally just going to illustrate fun shapes, but ended up with an electric temple? I wouldn’t trust it. #aftereffects #motiondesign #2dfx

Another home building doodle with the line tool. Vibing while listening to TV and using Callipeg. #animation #framebyframe #callipeg #doodle

Colton @coltongeil.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

Here’s a fun way to zone out—just using the line tool in your frame by frame animator of choice and don’t think.
