It’s why I generally like to draw everything to a similar scale. Note, too, that if you enlarge or reduce an image, you will change the final thickness of the lines. Other times, I use a Sharpie (thin or thick). I like being able to decide how thick or thin the lines should be based upon my own personal preference. At some point, though, I just had to find my own style. The fact that I use “doodle” rather than “illustrate” suggests I don’t see a ton of merit in my craft.
There’s this strange perfectionism and shame for me when it comes to art. I was worried that people wouldn’t like what I had sketched out. I was insecure about how my visuals would look. This is the part where I was initially way too slow. This is often where you can test out visual structures like trails, pyramids, boxes, etc. It’s supposed to look crappy, but that’s okay. I actually have a forced time limit on storyboarding where I will only allow myself five minutes from start to finish to get the whole idea across. I usually draw boxes with stick figures and arrows. This is essentially the visual concept for the animation (if you can call it that). Okay, this isn’t anywhere near as complicated as the word suggests.
It’s actually a chance to focus on precision of language. Often, a podcast will have 3-4 minutes sharing one point but a sketchy video requires you to get that point across in ten seconds. Hook them into a visual organizational structure. In other words, choose metaphors and idioms if you need to. It helps to think about the visual aspect of what you are trying to convey.
The Creative Process Step One: Write and Record the Script But I thought I would share it here anyway. I often answer sheepishly because I know my process is insanely laborious and not all that technical. People often email me asking how I make sketch animation videos. I’m proud of what my son made.īut that leads to my next point. Confession: I know I’m being one of those obnoxious dads, but I don’t care.
