Holy Cow! It looks like you guys have been enjoying the Revenge of Meta Knight animation. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. The positivity and hype has been truly incredible to see. I look forward to making more things in the future, and I hope you'll join me for it

Here’s something I made for @portfolioday.bsky.social a few years back for the other place. I think it’s still fun, but I hope I can get something updated for the not too distant future

We've reached the end of the videos I prepared, and at the end of any project is the question of what comes next. I've got a few things in the works, and my plan is to share some pieces as they are presentable. In the meantime, thank you for watching, and I look forward to what comes next

It's important to remember that you are constantly in a state of learning. Looking back at a section like this, I see things that I would clean up now, but it was a step I needed to take to get where I am. While my standard has gotten more strict , I am proud that pieces like this are still fun

Fun little tidbit, I generally try to focus my action in the center of the frame, and if I need to have action travel across the frame, I try to bring it through the center. Its worked pretty well for readability and feeling the action in the past

I'll sometimes make a proof of concept sequence when working on a fight. This was the first sequence that was animated/rendered for this fight, and it is a contender for my favorite piece I've ever animated

I like imbalanced fights. There is a tendency for fights to try to find equilibrium, but an element of satisfying fights is changing the fight state. Intentionally playing with this balance, making a back and forth, can add to compelling fight narrative

Got a question for ya. If I were to do another pokemon fight, who would you want to see in it?

Joe Vick @joevickanimation.bsky.social · 22/11/2024

I've had a few over the years, but I think Nidoking hits the sweet spot

This pokemon fight is by far the longest single fight I've done, and a lot of it was experimental. Learned a lot from this one

Is it too much to ask for butterfree to be meta in the games? They deserve it

Joe Vick @joevickanimation.bsky.social · 08/11/2024

May I offer you a pokemon animation in these trying times?

Joe Vick @joevickanimation.bsky.social · 05/11/2024

Might post clips from my previous projects, just for funzies

Joe Vick @joevickanimation.bsky.social · 04/11/2024

One of my favorite parts of the new animation, got help from an old RT friend @mttdrury.bsky.social on the back and forth, would it surprise you to hear he knocked it out of the park? Me neither

And now, I'm happy to tease my next project. An animation I made for @nightmind.bsky.social 's Candy Bowl film festival! Tune in live at 12:00am Eastern on Twitch to see it and so many other fun Halloween shorts. Mine isn't likely to be the spookiest, but I was aiming more for fun anyways XP
