#all you incredible photoshop wizards

[queenofthecon]

gonna be salty on main for a sec to add to the discourse...

there are certain fandoms where there is no new canon content. At all. If you have a ship from a show that is long gone and done, and you're indulging in consuming fanfic, gifs or art or any other content being generated for you for FREE, please show it some love!!!

If you want more, that's the ONLY way to keep the love alive

[ughmerlin]

I get what you’re trying to say here, but I completely agree with the reblog by @/neverheresims, and in the kindest way, that comparison doesn’t really work at all.

The thing is, when you create content for or from an intellectual property you do not own, it straight up does not belong to you. CC creators are incredibly, and I mean incredibly lucky they’re able to monetize their work. That won’t fly elsewhere, either because of the company, or the community. Unless you’re making fandom scarves, you entirely own whatever you make, and the paywall issue is largely the fact that you don’t own what you make.

Per EA’s terms, everything you make from game assets belongs to them, and anything made from your own assets belongs to them the moment it’s converted into files to be used in the game, and EA has said that anything made for the game is for all the community to use. You do not own what you make.

Now, for my own analogy. I make dice. I make dice largely for those who play D&D, and market them as D&D dice, because this is my job and that gets me seen by the people who would be interested in them.

Recently, Wizard’s of the Coast, the company that owns D&D, decided that they didn’t like how everyone was profiting off their game except for them and was going to implement new terms that made it so you could no longer profit off of D&D without reporting your earnings and giving them a percentage, or just straight up at all. There was a whole lot more to it and I’m not explaining it the best, but had they gone through with that, I would not have been able to market my dice as D&D dice anymore and would have had to remove any previous connections. Because dice and their shapes don’t solely belong to D&D, and the dice I make are not from molds of official D&D dice, I could keep selling my dice, but I’d lose out on a significant demographic.

This is comparable to CC creators who make their own meshes entirely from scratch. If they wanted to have them under a permanent paywall, they could sell them as 3D meshes independent from the game and allow for conversions to the games by the individual who buys the mesh, with or without a tutorial on how the average person can do that. They still entirely own their work that way. But if they want to sell it as Sims 4 CC, they have to play by EA’s rules, and that means it’s not theirs anymore and they can only charge for a reasonable early access.

Now, for the creations made from existing meshes, let’s say someone sold custom character sheets that use all of the official D&D character sheet information, but display it differently. Or someone just took the direct sheet, printed it out, and customized it from there. If WotC went through with their leaked TOS changes, those people could no longer sell their character sheets, because the core of them belonged to WotC. If they wanted to sell them, they would have to change up anything that belonged to the D&D character sheet.

In other games, when you make a mod, you generally know that it’s going to be a labor of love and you’re likely not going to get anything out of it. It’s done because you love what you’re doing, or wanted something for yourself and are okay with sharing it. Charging for it is extremely out of the norm, and you have to play by the company’s rules.

I am entirely okay with a reasonable early access period. To me, that’s 2-3 weeks. I’m not sure where 30 days is coming from, because last I knew EA just vaguely said “reasonable”, so unless they have specifically said that that reasonable is going to be different for everyone.

I am also all for people getting paid for their work. CC making isn’t easy and it takes a long time. I spent three hours removing the stripes from that one fitness kit top because the quality crunch of items makes it near impossible to fix things like that sometimes, and Photoshop also just sucks. Marvelous Designer, which is used by a lot of alpha creators, is also really expensive. But I think there’s other ways to get paid, like accepting commissions for custom items/swatches and then releasing those for everyone. You could also make patterns or your own textures and sell those. There’s ways to earn what you deserve for your hard work while still being kind to the community and not breaking TOS.

Also, EA sucks, WotC also sucks, and this is not defending or supporting either. This is just sometimes you don’t want to be sued.

This is gonna be unpopular... but I'm gonna say it anyway. I don't think people getting paid for cc is a bad thing and here's why: (adding a cut cause I ramble)

Some people knit. Judy gives all the scarves they knit away as gifts because they just enjoy knitting. Phyllis knits scarves to sell them at the farmer's market or on Etsy. Maybe she relies on the money. Maybe she's trying to supplement her income. Maybe her kid has special needs and this allows her to avoid having to go to a job and instead be able to stay home to take care of them... we don't know. Because we don't know Phyllis or her situation. We just see her at the farmer's market selling scarves.

It's important to note that neither of them made the yarn they used. Or the needles they worked the yarn with. However, they did spend their free time making something. The most valuable thing we as people have is time (imho).

Just because you want a scarf made by Phyllis doesn't mean that she has to give you one. She has decided to put her work up for sale and make money for her time and effort.

Going to her booth and telling her that she should be giving the scarves away because she doesn't make the yarn or the needles is the equivalent of telling her that the time she put into making the scarves and the practice she put into gaining the skills to do so is worthless.

It's disrespectful af and just downright unkind.

If you want a free scarf you can make a friend like Judy who will give you one because she wants to. Maybe she's well off and doesn't need the money? Maybe she's a minor and doesn't have expenses? Maybe she's knitting for charity and sees it as her social responsibility? Plenty of reasons why she might knit for free.

The difference with Sims cc is that even if Phyllis needs that extra money for whatever reason. Even if she relies on it for food or medical treatment or to buy her insulin... After 30 days she will be forced to give her scarves away for free, so instead of being able to build up a stock of scarves... she has to keep making new kinds of scarves to maintain her income and anything 30 days or older has to be given away for free.

It's not a perfect metaphor, but my point is that people's time is valuable. People's skills are valuable. If everyone had the time or skills to do what they do then we wouldn't rely on cc creators at all. If it were super easy to learn and not time-consuming to do then everyone would do it. Don't assume you know why people are choosing to ask for money in exchange for their time and skills. Everyone is going through something and the odds are that you will never know about it. Be kind, not entitled.

41. Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Writes Your Story

Original Song: Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story

The end.

The original song of this usually gets me. It’s beautiful. So it’s small wonder that combining it with the heartwarming ending of TWEWY has a similar effect. This song lines so much up so well and covers pretty much every facet of Neku’s final monologue, including his complicated yet trusting lingering friendship with Josh and his acknowledgement of his own growth. I said ages ago that Neku finds himself in Eliza’s role a surprising amount in these songs and I earnestly hope he lives up to the role here.

The big change of this song that I’m most proud of is the titular change. The original song follows up on the play’s question of legacy and who carries your name forward after you’re gone; this song plays into the theme of the game surrounding what we spend our lives actually doing. It’s a challenge. It asks what the Reaper’s Game asks, which is what’s most important to you and why we want to live. In other words, who writes your story?

Had to look up a YouTube video of the secret ending for the visuals to screencap. I noticed a subtle change to it, but I’ll bring it up another time.

The visuals are of course full of cutscene shots, but that last one of Neku discarding his headphones needed to be made by combining two different shots, since we follow a more zoomed in view that pans up. I’m no wizard with Photoshop, but I think it turned out pretty well.

As always, credit for the incredible RG Shiki sprites belongs to BlueRainbow 101!

Only have one song left that’s actually written out, but I’ll take a bit of time before getting to it. We’ve completed the end of the main story and that’s a good enough milestone for me. There are a couple more song ideas I have in the making beyond this but I’m not in a hurry. I spent all year making this much and I’m okay with taking a little time before seeing the journey through to its absolute end. Hope you’ve all had fun with me in the meantime!

First Song: Neku Sakuraba

Previous Song: Shibuya’s Wide Enough

Next Song: Dear Sakuraba

Computer wizard here again; if you have any gaming consoles warframe will be getting full crossplay some time this year (assuming they stay on schedule). Otherwise you can also play under Linux using the proton compatibility layer in Steam. - just install the Linux version of steam, then do a Google on "Steam Linux proton" - user reports say warframe sometimes runs better under Linux which is a nice surprise. This also works for pretty much all Steam games too. - Good luck! P.S. What distro?

Thank you for all your help again, dear computer wizard :D

I don't own any consoles. If i did, i probably wouldn't be bothering with my laptop either, but alas i am but a console-free casual gamer

I saw Proton mentioned once or twice when i googled if warframe can run on linux, and it was always alongside Wine, so i passed it off immediately. I don't have anything against Wine to be fair, it's an incredibly cool bandaid, but that just...is what it is. A bandaid. I'd rather just switch over to windows to run something than chance it not being perfect with Wine and making me lose my unsaved work or produce a game-breaking glitch. (That said, the most resource intensive thing i've run on windows so far is, like, photoshop)

Proton though?? I had never heard of it but Holy Shit, i had no idea it was just. a valve thing. You can just make it go brrr from steam and everything. What the fuck

(It's also technically a Wine fork afaik so. Sorry Wine. You keep at it, buddy)

Where this journey on this laptop unfortunately ends is that warframe does boot! It does!!! And then it turns my laptop into a hairdryer on the login screen (and refuses to let me type @ so. didn't manage to get past that). While i know it could just be first-boot-blues, if it gets so intense right out the gate, i'd rather not subject my laptop to actual missions

(I will try the game sometime anyway on the family pc, which i really didn't want to bc it is soon to become my sibling's pc, end of story. But i'll poke my head in anyway, have fun while it lasts)

I use ubuntu! For no deep reason, i just grew up on linux and this is where in-house tech support ended up taking that years ago

Hello, interrupting your regularly scheduled programming just to say how grateful I am to all the incredible gif makers on this hellsite. As someone who has tried gif making/photoshop and failed spectacularly, I so appreciate how much hard work and time goes into creating these masterpieces that keep us all entertained, enthralled, and/or salivating every single day. Tumblr and fandom would be nothing without you guys! So THANK YOU for all you amazing work!

Tagging some of my favourite gif wizards @kazablanka96 @riricitaa @womb-to-tomb-sweetheart @erikisright @rainbowkisses31 @mareviils @bluesteelstan @evansensations @coporolight and so many others 💗💖✨🌈💫

Magical Creatures Everywhere SQ (Where I basically fangirl over Barnaby and Professor Kettleburn 90% of the time...)

But, as usual, we start with some bad photoshop edits!

MC: Acromantula?

Kettleburn: Chimaera?

Charlie: DRAGON!

:)

And now, to the SQ!

(with all the characters that I tagged. I promise I don’t just tag stuff without reason!)

It started with Charlie.

Yep, that’s going to be a good one.

Also, regarding what he said - you do realize that would be fatal for the students, if there were a real dragon. right? Nope, he doesn’t care.

Sane people?

So it’s good we’re the Loony Squad!

If Trelawney were here, she’d say it means:

Also, I want to point out - Charlie, Liz, Barnaby and Professor Kettleburn all in one location? This is my dream SQ!

Just the two of you took all the creatures in one go?

Whatever happened, you deserve it.

Of course he’s happy about it.

Be honest, you freed them, didn’t you?

MC: Y-you want me to help you?... HA! SUCK IT, LIZ!

Liz: ...?

MC: I still love you, though!

So, headcanon here - I feel like Luna has this special ability when it comes to animals. Yeah, it’s pretty much canon that she loves creatures, but my MC has something beyond that.

She has a special connection, not just with her pets or creatures she adopted, but any animal she encounters. It’s not like being a Parselmouth, she doesn’t directly understand the meaning of what they’re saying (except for Owls, since that’s her Animagus form), but she can feel what they want to communicate to her, and animals have a higher tendency to trust her, even wild ones. That’s the reason she can approach even dangerous creatures with confidence, because she makes them trust her and so they don’t attack most of the times.

So yeah, she’s perfect for this SQ.

Yep, that’s definitely it.

You let them loose, come on, be honest.

That’s one of the best days of your life, isn’t it?

You’d think they prefer a living tree...

Normally I’d choose the option with the book, but this time I have to go with the more headcanon leaning option - she’d probably try to talk to them in a soothing voice to calm them down.

I do have to say, it’s going to be pretty disappointing if this entire quest is just a fetch quest and nothing more.

Magic!

They look like cat grandpas.

MC: You’re going to tell Papa?

You should really know the difference, as a professor.

Wait, so you do know?

Sure... let’s go with that.

Fine, you know.

MC: 

Why does he look so terrified? Poor thing.

Grass?

You too? Wow, that’s almost overwhelming.

MC:

Aww, it’s so cute.

Oh...my god.

Anybody else hear - “Ooh, heaven is a place on earth.“ playing in their heads?

It’s not funny, it’s amazing. She just found her heaven!

Throw Barnaby into the mix and it’d be perfect.

Very convincing...

I wouldn’t call it maturity, just sheer happiness.

Oh wow. Umm.. Thank you?

That’s impossible!

Crazy idea - have you thought about using magic? You know, since you are wizards!

Back off, Filch.

Probably...

The truth?

Okay, MC, don’t freak out.

MC:

What do you mean “pretend”? You’re already a puppy.

Also, look at him!

Ah, my heart is so full right now.

Sure thing, mate.

She’s not thinking about the task, but about how she’s going to gather them all in her dorm room.

This is adorable! I can’t handle it... I just want to watch him all the way through this task.

And the Crup that sleeps next to him... Okay, THIS is MC’s heaven.

(Also, Barnaby Jr. and that Crup behind them! So damn cute!)

Because he’s a cold-hearted, murderous Death Eater.

Your soul is too pure for your family, Puppy.

That’s a bad thing, Lizard.

Alright...

Oh, you precious angel...

You do that!

Anything for Papa.

MC: Well, obviously.

Again, crazy idea...

MAGIC!

Oh yeah, that’s how he lost his eye, right?

Oof. That’s rough, buddy.

Not the moustache!

I love that that’s her reaction to what he said.

This SQ is so damn cute, I can’t...handle...it...!

It’s all fun and games, until you figure out he was behind Dumbledore’s death all along. His thirst for power knows no boundaries.

Haha, nice one, JC.

I like that.

Yeah, and questionable judgement about children’s safety.

You don’t have any authority here anymore, old man! The bowtruckle is in charge now.

So, wait...

My first instinct was for her to blame herself, but I don’t think it’s really necessary. I doubt Dumbledore would actually be mad about this whole thing.

It’s probably best to tell him the truth. (Also - blue book!)

Because they tried to move them all in one go. It was inevitable...

See? He appreciate her honesty and instead of getting mad, he’s glad she helped.

Throwing yourself under the bus is not always the best solution.

Injuries? Oof... Well, at least Papa would be happy.

Jesus Christ, Merula. If you actually hurt a creature, I would never accept any type of your redemption arc!

Is that why, in the past, you suggested making creatures fight each other for your entertainment and even straight up killing them? If that’s your kind of love, please, save it for people only.

You do you, Puppy.

What does it say about me, if it actually interest me?

It’s supposed to be a joke about Rowan’s dorkiness, but it’s a really interesting premise for an essay.

Because Dumbledore asked for more, you cheap.

The option “You’re a generous person” is just objectively wrong, also, she’s not a major suck up.

Mmm... He does have empathy, even though he’s trying to hide it. Maybe the first option?

I know he doesn’t like children, but he can’t really leave them injured like this when he has the supply for their medications.

Time to impress Papa.

Don’t worry, she aspires to become a healer, so you’re in good hands.

Yeah, and don’t forget who helped you out - your favorite student and mentee!

I want him to tag along, but maybe he should rest a bit. We don’t want him to lose another limb. (OR DO WE?)

Dammit, I’m not sure he’s going to like that answer. I hope he wouldn’t find it too boring.

That’s not a satisfied Papa...

Dammit.

Oh.

Wait, so it was the right choice?

MC: Yes! Suck it, Liz!

Liz: Seriously?

MC: Sorry, love.

That’s a big snail. I can’t wait for MC to have one of those!

Is that a huge Niffler next to Merula?

What the-?

Also, Ben is not terrified - that’s the spirit, buddy!

Wait, didn’t he say something about it earlier?

Yeah, at the beginning of the quest:

Barnaby can see into the future, confirmed!

Merula alert:

Dammit. Barnaby can see the future - busted.

I really don’t get how people can look at this screenshot and think- oh, she’s amazing.

She’s laughing at the thought of ruining people’s lives.

That’s not endearing, that’s a major character flaw and shouldn’t be celebrated.

Not to mention, a stupid plan that’s easily reversible, so she’s not just being a huge douche, she’s also being really dumb.

Mean and dumb - some people’s type, apparently.

I’m sorry, she’s just so incredibly pathetic.

Even if you like “the bad guy” type in stories, she’s incapable of even doing that correctly.

Unless you like the type that constantly humiliate themselves and showing how incompetent they are, because if so - she’s your ideal character!

Girl, you have serious issues.

Oh look, it took us 3 seconds to fix.

You’re such a mastermind, Merula.

I’m sorry, was that supposed to be a threat?

Oh, honey...

MC: DUMBLEDORE!! SHE’S HERE! THE ONE THAT DID ALL THE MESS!

To be fair, Merula is so incompetent that I doubt she’d be able to hurt anyone on purpose...

No one is going to believe you, you nimrod!

Are you really in a position to judge anyone else’s appearance, Ismelda?

Characters in this SQ: Let’s test your knowledge.

MC, a Ravenclaw:

Wow, muggles are really the true victims in this SQ, aren’t they?

Yeah, skip...

Eyes.

You’re not very reassuring, Mr. Diggory.

That’s better. Thanks, buddy.

Wait, it’s getting gradually better... Does this mean-?!

Awww! Papa’s stamp of approval!

Aww, it’s such a cutie pie!

Obviously.

That can’t be good...

Oh, right. Stalling...

Fine, but in the headcanon, she did it on her first try.

Here we go... Such a good boy.

Instant BFFs!

Thanks, Papa.

We did it! (Not that there was any real challenge, but still...)

Aww, such a nice little SQ.

Conclusions:

I really like this one. 

I spent most of my time just fangirling over Barnaby and Professor Kettleburn, which is not necessarily a bad thing, in my eyes.

I did find it a bit boring at times, but mostly it was just cute and wholesome.

I really enjoyed the company of Barnaby and Liz, though I wish they’d included them more in the plot of the SQ and not just the background. Also, I wish Charlie had a bigger role.

But overall - really cute. Good job, JC.

Bonus:

Not part of the SQ, but I just love how they sit together.

It makes much more sense to me that Barnaby would hang out with Liz than Ismelda or Merula.

[grimelords]

My March playlist is finished! This one is slightly more diverse than usual, swinging all the way from vibraphone jazz to Bhad Bhabie to black metal so I’ve taken the liberty of actually sequencing it properly for you. So if you’ve got 3 hours you can listen to this straight through and be taken for a hell of a ride. No matter what you like I’m sure you’ll find something in here that you love.

Tahiti - Milt Jackson: For an unknown reason I had a big jazz vibraphone phase this month and when you're talking jazz vibraphone you're talking the Wizard Of The Vibes himself, Milt Jackson. I feel insane even having an opinion on this but it's a shame that some of the best vibraphone performances were made at a time when the actual recording technology wasn't really there, they all have this very thin quality that I think misses a lot of the great character of the instrument.

Detour - Bill Le Sage: Like compare this from 1971 to Wizard Of The Vibes from 1952, the sounds is miles warmer and gives so much more of the full range and detail of the instrument. I also listened to this song five times in a row when I first heard it, the central refrain is just so fuckin good. Like I said, big vibes vibe and who knows why.

Blowin' The Blues Away - Buddy Rich And His Sextet: Superhuman playing aside, it's unbelievable how good these drums sound. The whole first minute just feels like a tour of each specific drum and I absolutely revel in it. I feel like flute and vibes is a relatively rare combo so it's extremely nice to hear Sam Most and Mike Manieri go ham in tandem.

Yama Yama - Yamasuki Singers: A friend sent me this song that he's had stuck in his head for ten years ever since it was in a beer ad from the days when beer ads were incredible strange for complicated legal reasons about not showing people enjoying the product or something https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORfkh0OojxY and this incredible song is apparently from a 1971 French concept album where a couple of guys wrote a bunch of psychedelic songs in Japanese for an unknown reason that later became a massive drum and bass breaks album, and one of the guys was Thomas Bangalter from Daft Punk's dad! Music is crazy.

Alfonso Muskedunder - Todd Terje: I'm starting a petition to get Todd Terje to write the soundtrack for the next Mario Kart. I absolutely love this song and this whole album because it's so joyful and strange and it just sounds like nothing else I've ever heard. He seem to truly operate in a world entirely of his own.

Pala - Roland Tings: I love this song. It's like he wrote it with normal sounds and then went back and replaced every instrument with the party version. This song hands you a coconut and says welcome to the island where bad vibes are punishable by firing squad.

Keygen 13 - Haze Edit - Dubmood: There's a fucking album of keygen music on spotify and it's absolutely great and so good that someone's doing the work to recognize the value of the music this extremely weird scene produced and preserve it. If you don't know, back in the day when you pirated photoshop or whatever, you would download a license key generator which was a program made by extreme nerds who had cracked the license key algorithm to give you a fake one, and for unknown reasons they would make the keygen program play original chiptune music that someone in their nerd crew would compose. Who knows why but god bless them.

My Moon My Man (Boys Noize Remix) - Feist: The very concept of a Boys Noize remix of My Moon My Man is hilarious and it turns out it sounds absolutely amazing as well. Two great tastes that taste great together.

Low Blows - Meg Mac: I had a big Meg Mac phase this month too, listened to her album a lot and it's extremely solid. Great timing too cause her new one comes out in a month or so too. I really am excited to hear her next album because she's so good but I've always got this feeling that she hasn't reached her full potential yet, she's only going to get a million times better in an album or two.

Patience - Tame Impala: I love that the cover of this single is a pic of congas because it feels like that's the central thesis here. Kevin Parker bought some congas and is making disco Tame Impala now and I really couldn't be happier about it.

Unconditional (feat. Kitten) - Touch Sensitive: I love a 90s throwback done with love. There's nothing cynical or ironic about this it's just fun as hell!

Last Hurrah - Bebe Rexha: Get a fucking load of this Bebe Rexha song that interpolates Buy U A Drank by T-Pain for the chorus! It's a testament to how good that song is that she's using the verse melody as the chorus. T-Pain will quite literally never get the respect he deserves. Also this song goes for 2.5 minutes. There's something happening where pop songwriting is getting more and more compact, completely trimming the fat and ornamentation and it's very interesting.

Hi Bich - Bad Bhabie: Also I'm fully six months late on Hi Bich but I'm of the opinion that it's extremely fucking good. A perfect little reaction gif of a song and it only goes for 1m45!

Friends - Flume: I'm doubling down on my thesis about emo rap from last month but this song literally sounds like a Flume remix of a Hawthorne Heights song. The whole melody of it, the overlapping yelled/clean vocals. The lyrics obviously. I don't know it's just very odd how close it is. A sort of emo trojan horse to trick people into thinking The Used are cool again. 

How To Build A Relationship (feat. JPEGMAFIA) - Flume: I've been meaning to check out JPEGMAFIA (AKA Buttermilk Jesus AKA DJ Half-Court Violation AKA Lil' World Cup) for a while but this is the song that convinced me. There's just so much to digest in this. Every line is gold and delivered with massive conviction even when he realises it's total nonsense like 'dont call me unless I gave you my number'.

Bells & Circles (feat. Iggy Pop) - Underworld: Underworld alive 2019?? I love this song becuase Iggy Pop has been riding a fine line between punk provocateur and old man yells at cloud for a while now and this song is the perfect mix of both. You can't hijack airplanes and redirect them to cuba anymore and as a result it's over for liberal democracies. Just yelling about air travel for six minutes and it's good.

Guns Blazing (Drums Of Death Pt. 1) - UNKLE: This beat is some of my favourite DJ Shadow work I think. The menacing organ bass throughout, and especially the distorted drum freakout near the end. It's just great all the way through.

Homo Deus IV - Deantoni Parks: Another Deantoni Parks track like I was raving about last month. This whole album is great and flows together as a single piece of work amazingly. I love the purposefully limited sample palette of each track forcing an evolving groove throughout. He absolutely wrings every bit of variation he can get out of every single sound he uses and once you get into the groove of it it's absolutely mind blowing.

Boredom - The Drones: I love that The Drones can write a song about joining ISIS that's also a lot of fun. Spelling out radicalization in a way anyone can understand and sympathise with and then switching it in the second verse to spell out how we got into this situation anyway. 

Loinclothing - Hunters And Collectors: I love how much this song sounds like a voodoo celebration in christian hell.

The Fun Machine Took A Shit And Died - Queens Of The Stone Age: There's a good bit on the live dvd they put out after Lullabies To Paralyze where they play this song and they say it was supposed to be on the album but somebody stole the master recordings from the studio, which is an incredible and brazen crime. Then when they put it out on Era Vulgaris as a bonus track Josh Homme said in an interview "The tapes got lost. Actually, they were just at another studio, but we falsely accused everyone in the world of theft" which is extremely funny. This is really one of their best songs and I sort of really with it had been on Lullabies because it fits perfectly between The Blood Is Love and Someone's In The Wolf type of vibes, I love how it just kind of keeps shifting ideas and riffs throughout. An absolute jam overflowing with ideas.

10AM Automatic - The Black Keys: This song is an all time great in my opinion. It's so straightforward and so effective. I wonder if we'll get a blues rock revival ever or if Jack White still being alive and bad is souring everyone on that idea. This song also has one of my favourite guitar sounds in history I think - the outrageously huge sounding solo that comes out of nowhere and swallows up the rest of the mix like a swirling black hole near the end.

Gamma Knife - King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard: I've never gotten much into King Gizzard and because of their one million albums already it's hard to know where to start but I've been listening to Nonagon Infinity a bit and it's great, it's just good old fashioned 70s prog jams front to back.

Gina Works At Hearts - DZ Deathrays: I absolutely love this song and I absolutely love the second guitar sound in the chorus of this song that sounds like it's made out of thin steel.

Black Brick - Deafheaven: When I saw Deafheaven the other month I was right up the front and it was a life changingly great experience AND they played this new song live for the first time before it went up everywhere like three hours later which was very exciting to be given a sclusie like that. After they finished a guy behind me whispered to his friend "Slayer..." which was very funny to me.

Gemini - Elder: I found this band because one of my Spotify Daily Mixes was all stoner metal for a while, which is a good genre to see all lined up because it'll have Weedeater, Bongripper AND Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats right there in a row for you. Anyway this album is extremely good, the very best kind of stoner metal where it's groovy and fun and has big meaty riffs and ripping big solos and it's extremely easy to listen to three times in a row.

The Paradise Gallows - Inter Arma: My big obsession the past little while has been Inter Arma ever since Stereogum posted The Atavist's Meridian from their new album. It is just so fucking good and I can't believe I've never heard of them before. You know when you find out about an amazing band and then you find out they've been around for nearly ten years and you can't believe everyone in your life has been selfishly hiding them from you?

The Atavist's Meridian - Inter Arma: I think a big part of my enjoyment of this band has also been that I discovered them at the same time as I'm listening to an audiobook of the complete Conan The Barbarian omnibus so I'm very much in the brain space for music that sounds like it would be nice to swing an axe to.

Untoward Evocation - Impetuous Ritual: I love how halfway through this kind of just turns into a big swirling mist of dark sounds. It feels so formless and dark that it could just shake apart and dissipate at any moment and you'd look down to realise your skin is gone.

Eagle On A Pole - Conor Oberst: from Genius: 'In an interview with MTV news, Oberst stated “We were on the bus one day and a friend of ours that travels with us and works for the band kind of came out from the back of the bus and said that first line: ‘Saw an eagle on a pole… I think it was an eagle.’ And then this guy Simon Joyner, who is a great songwriter from Omaha and one of my great friends, he was on tour with us and sitting there and he was like, ‘You know, that’s a great name for a song.’ We kind of had a contest where he wrote a song with that first line, and [then] I did, and a couple of our other friends. We kind of all played them for each other. Simon’s is better than mine, but it is a good line to start a song.” Another version–Mystic Valley Band drummer Jason Boesel’s interpretation–is on the next album, Outer South.' The idea that such a good song has such a braindead origin only makes me love it more.

Lake Marie - John Prine: When I saw John Prine the other month he played this song that I had never heard before and I had to look it up after and now I'm completely obsessed with it. It feels like falling asleep during a movie and missing a critical plot point so the rest doesn't make sense when you wake up but is thrilling nonetheless. Also he absolutely screamed "SHADOWS!!!" when he played it which was a fucking cool thing to see a 72 year old man do.

Little White Dove - Jenny Lewis: The drums on this whole album are absolutely huge for some reason and I love it. My favourite recent sound is in the first chorus where there's a funny little pitch correction noise as she sings 'dove'. It's very strange and very very good.

Locked Up - The Ocean Party: I only found out The Ocean Party existed as they announced their farewell show this month which is a real shame but I'm glad I got to hear of them at all because they're very good. A very good song about that feeling we all know and love: driving for a long long time.

Plain & Sane & Simple Melody - Ted Lucas: I found out about this song from Emma Ruth Rundle's Amoeba Records video and she makes a good point about this whole album sounding like something's gone wrong and it got accidentally pitched down slightly in the recording process. It's unclear if that's what happened or that's just how he sounds but it adds a very softly spooky undercurrent to a very nice song.​

[driftertale]

As you all know, this is the end of Driftertale as you knew it. That doesn’t mean that it will die forever though. In this post i will describe everything i had planned for this AU and anyone who is interested, is free to use some or all of the ideas presented here or even continue the AU by themselves. As my Meme-self would say: It’s free real estate.

Also quick self-advertisemnt: If you’ve been following this blog and don’t know yet, i also have another AU called @charatale-au that i plan on finishing. You may also visit my personal blog @lizzy-mun where i post art and original comics in the future.

Driftertale Spoilers under the cut:

Mood Music for anyone feeling as melancholic as i

I guess it’s best to start with explaining what happened in the last few updates. Basically Frisk tried to reset but ended up in “the Void” where Gaster is too.  Gaster tried to use Frisks soul and DT to create a portal and use Frisks body as a vessel to return to his timeline, but since Frisks Soul is much more powerful than he anticipated, everything goes wrong. Frisks Soul and body become extremely unstable and briefly open a gateway through time and space that Frisk is thrown through.  Due to being exposed to the void and being thrown outside of any timeline and having an unstabel soul and lots of determination they end up shifting to a random timeline. And they keep shifting to new timelines every now and then, which is where their Nickname Drifter eventually comes from.

Drifter would then travel to a multitude of timelines and universes. I haven’t really decided what AUs i wanted to use but here are some things that would definitely happen at one point or another:

Drifter meets Error and they fight. That would happen pretty early on and Drifter would find out that they can use magic now, even tho they can’t really control it yet. But since they absorbed a boss monster soul, their magic is incredibly powerful

(Frisk uses Fire Magic)

Drifter befriends Papyrus and he gives them a red scarf as sign of their friendship.

They meet Core Frisk and visit the Omega Timeline

They meet Kara, the main antagonist. She’s a wizard-chara who can travel through time and space and uses shadow-magic. Her plan is to gather powerful souls that she can use to become god and create her own perfect universe.

Kara wants to get Drifter!chara’s soul and first tries to trick Frisk in giving it to her and later hires Crimson, a genocidal Frisk, to kill Drifter. Crimson actually succeeds in killing Drifter. But Kara appears and attacks him so he has to retreat. Kara makes Drifter!chara believe that she’s on their side and makes a deal with them. Kara uses her magic (which she gets from Gaster, by the way) to give D!chara a temporary magic body so they can avenge Frisk and Kara uses the deal to claim their soul later.

Once Kara got D!charas soul she absorbs all the souls she gathers and becomes like god and starts creating a chaotic amalgamation of timelines. (think Weirdmageddon)

(Kara normal and in their God-From)

Gaster would then bring back Drifter by creating a new body for them. (They actually created a spare magic vessel inside Drifters soul earlier. They talked about it in one of the last updates) Frisk tries to fight Kara but ultimately fails and is killed again. This time Kara absorbs their Soul and all hope is lost.

But of course Drifter has the power of love and anime on their side and they managed to call out to the other souls that Kara absorbed. Together they manage to overthrow Kara (like the souls in the Photoshop Flowey fight) and manage to RESET. With the power that Kara possessed at that time, all the timelines she destroyed where restored by that reset and Drifter was send back to their own timeline, where they do a pacifist run (except Toriel is still ded)

And that would be the End

I also had some ideas to continue the story after that as an ask blog, where Frisk saves Asriel by injecting themselves with DT from Alphys lab and splitting their soul in half so Asriel can have one part of it.

The story would continue on the surface and more stuff could happen but i haven’t really thought of much, except that Asriel would have PTSD from his time as Flowey and would actually sometimes see Flowey talking to him lure him into reseting once again.

Also Drifter would try to use their magic for justice by becoming a vigilante, much to the dismay of Asriel who of course doesn’t know at first that Frisk is that new Hero.

I think that is all that i can think of at the moment. As i said, all the ideas are free to use. You can use them in your own AU, try to make your own Driftertale or do whatever. Credit me or don’t, i don’t really mind.

it's so funny to me that after like… 2 years or so of dicking around on photoshop sporadically to make .gifs & do static photo edits, I'm like "hell yeah fuck yeah I got this, I am a WIZARD"

but because I never got around to doing the same for DRAWING digitally outside of ms fucking paint, I end up feeling like "graphic design is my passion 🐸" & being EXTREMELY impressed with basic warp/distortion effects to the point that I feel like an ape extra in the 2001 "thus spake zarathustra" obelisk scene

which is incredibly frustrating when you know how to do the thing you want to do in analog / "traditional" media, btw, especially when you also can't afford to do it that way, so you're stuck with either the starving artist feeling… or the plastic toddler safety scissors feeling.

anyway… we soldier on, y'all. stock ps brushes and confusion about gradients and all.

My college graduation ceremony! I earned my associates in graphic design 🎉

Believe it or not, the mini prints of my work is only a fraction of what I have made during my time spent at my community college. I take pride in how I chose to attend MCC instead of diving right into a four year college, not just because I’m not neck deep in college debt, but what I value most from my career at MCC are the connections and memories that I have made there.

Every drive I made to my classes was like going to my fourth home (my other homes being my mom’s, dad’s and grandparents’). After taking many courses in the DGM and Art departments over the course of several years, you tend to see a lot of familiar faces. Among all those people that I had the pleasure of collaborating, giving and receiving critiques with, I never would have thought that I would meet my best friend Allison.

We’ve had one or few classes with each other in the past but didn’t talk too much with each other, until we were in a mixed class of Graphic Design one and two, which also happened to be taught by my role model. I’ve been in many friend groups throughout my life so far, maybe even had a close friends here and there but I don’t think I’ve ever had a “best friend”. And I was starting to think that I never would. But a new door was opened when I was able to get to know Allison. She’s a photoshop wizard, a fellow skull enthusiast, highly skilled designer, eyeliner expert, dedicated Disney fan, Dunkin’ Doughnut vanilla latte connoisseur, animal lover (who is now the mother of my leopard gecko Pablo). More importantly she has always been my rock, she’s practically my sister. Allison is someone I can come to for a second opinion, whether it be life stuff or art stuff, a shoulder to cry on, someone to make adventures with, she’s especially good at keeping me in check when I get oddball ideas and lending a hand on my hijinks. Which is often. Allison is more than what I deserve in a best friend and I am very grateful that I crossed paths with her in my lifetime.

As for my role model Justin Schmitz, Justin has this incredible creative drive that pushes him to put so much extensive labor into his projects until he gets his visions to manifest, he's funny, witty and isn't afraid to befuddle his students with obscure references from his generation or the unfamiliar corners of the art world that went over my head at times. My kind of juice and jam. Not only is he a great photography/graphic design professor, but he is able to keep his own creative endeavors on the side alive and well. He's able to make a stable living as a professor while going in any direction he wants with his own photography series and the occasional commissions he gets. He has inspired me to push myself by any means of reaching my full potential as an artist and person. His extensive knowledge of technological and artistic disciplines would always blow me away. Of course he’s well rounded in those regards, he has years of experience, a masters degree under his belt. But how he projects himself in his loud and unique nature is what makes me want to be able to take on the world like he does. What I appreciated about taking a class with him is that he was always invested in what fellow students were creating, gave us his thoughts on how to better our work, and then would take a step back to allow us to explore a combination of ideas. But what I appreciated most about him as a professor and a creative, he would always support me and my ideas whenever I hit a roadblock, I will always remember his compassion.

The Professors of the DGM and Art department have provided me with the skills of not only pushing myself as a creator, how to be self motivated, how to conceptualize an idea and articulate my reasoning behind the idea, I must push myself outside my comfort zone in order to add more skills to my tool belt, to have fun with what I'm making and how to legally protect my ideas.

Moving forward I plan to find some internships in the graphic design field to gain some experience as I look into options for a four year school to earn my Bachelors in graphic design OR take a different route. One thing is for certain, I will continue to create and pride myself as an artist, a graphic designer, a wildlife enthusiast, a cartoon junkie, bone collector an independent woman.

#Anime studio debut 9 free#

Talented artists have the potential to use their drawing skills to create some really badass looking comic style characters and create some really amazing looking animations by individually creating the various limbs, body parts, facial features and so on within their own unique layers so that they can be animated without warping or affecting the other body parts. After an hour or so of frustration with not being able to find the correct tools that I require, I eventually figured out this minor annoyance and then was on the right path towards animation heaven. One time where I swear I didn’t have any blame was when I was unknowingly operating in the “Beginner” interface while the instructions were for the “Advanced” interface but did not state this anywhere. Where the hell are my bone tools, they should be here? Whoops, my bad, I’m working from the wrong layer”. “Why can’t I change the drawing now when before I could? Oh, I’m in the wrong frame. I experienced several issues during my tutorial where I stuffed up a step, thought I was doing it properly, and then automatically assumed the program or the tutorial instructions were flawed, all because of my own foolish mistakes. The thing about this program is that any time something isn’t working properly or a command isn’t responding the way you expected it to, it is almost always going to be your fault for failing to correctly follow the instructions. Other sweet features that exist are the ability to copy and paste keyframes to quickly create animation loops, quickly inserting or copying across various mouth positions for fast and simple lip synching, as well as the fantastic ability to import your pre-existing Photoshop masterpieces as layers into the program to be animated however you please. During my spelunking session I stumbled across certain cool features such as a character wizard that allows you to easily tweak a pre-existing character template by changing height, colours and so on, which was cool because this also featured being able to see the character from different angles (in front, behind, from the side etc) while also including a looped walking animation.

#Anime studio debut 9 pro#

The overall concept is very straightforward and easy to grasp, but is an incredibly powerful device for making some sweet animations (have a look at these examples here).Īfter an hour or so of following the instructions step by step, I decided to go exploring for myself (which may not have been the wisest idea, as if I had have followed the tutorial all the way to the end I would undoubtedly be a pro at animations by now instead of being the mildly enthusiastic amateur that I currently am). In a nutshell, the most basic way of creating an animation in Anime Studio Debut 9 is to draw out your character, place bones into each of its limbs, and then move the various bones at different points in your timeline to create movement. So far, so good! Next up I was introduced to “bones”, which basically act as an anchor from which motion and movement takes place.

#Anime studio debut 9 how to#

My very first hands-on test whilst being instructed by the included beginner’s tutorial was as simple and successful as could have been hoped for, as I was guided through various drawing tools, introduced to keyframes, shown how to manipulate the shapes for motion and so on. Thankfully, this is not the case with Anime Studio Debut 9. This is a great way to begin a program such as this, for too many times in the past have I installed a new program only to be bombarded with an interface and tools that are foreign and scary to me, resulting in me being overwhelmed and rage quitting because I did not know where to begin.

#Anime studio debut 9 free#

Upon first opening this program, a popup menu appears that presents you with various options such as viewing an introductory tutorial and downloading free bonus content and so on. Please hold all applause until the end of the review. Following in my new found tradition of reviewing things that I have no previous experience or skill with (check out my review of Manga Studio Debut 4 to see what I mean), may I now proudly present my noob’s review of Anime Studio Debut 9 by Smith Micro.

Getting to Know Abby Debeaupre

This week, I interviewed another great Outlander fanfic writer, @abbydebeaupreposts!

Abby was born on the East Coast of U.S and grew up in and around New York City. She is 50% Greek and 50% Mutt, but can only (barely, she says) speak her native tongue of English. Without exactly revealing her age, she did admit that she has a playlist stuck in the 80s. She only started writing Outlander fanfics a little over a year ago. In school, she studied Political Science and Economics. Currently, she does mostly transaction work, focusing mainly on contingency planning and a lot of technical writing. For fun, Abby enjoys hiking, biking, playing tennis, reading, cooking, and watching documentaries. As a unique talent, she revealed that she can tie a cherry stem with her tongue! If she could travel through the stones, she would like to relive her life as a baby boomer or possibly go to Paris in the 1920s. She was adamant that she would not be all that adaptable to the 1740s, as she has a healthy respect for deodorant, tampons and indoor plumbing.

Keep reading to see the full Q & A.

What inspired you to start writing Outlander fanfiction?

The long droughtlander between 1 and 2. I started writing fanfic probably like everyone else --because there were some things I wanted to read that weren’t written yet. Also one of my children had a serious medical issue and needed surgery (he’s doing really well. If any parents out there need to figure out how to go about finding a peds neurosurgeon feel free to DM me). It was a hugely challenging thing to go through. I had a lot of time waiting and pacing in doctor’s offices and hospital corridors. The thing is you are still processing later on-- months later...it echoes across a lot of your life even after and there was upheaval for awhile. Anyway, I stumbled on Outlander fanfic -- perfect small snippets -- the fandom platform is a kind of shorthand that cuts through the expositional crap-- we know who the the characters are and mostly where they are going. Fics usually have regular updates so you stay interested, etc. A handful of writers in particular gave me something to look forward to, a nice escape and lovely food for thought about something other than the things happening IRL. That made a difference to me and I -- corny as this sounds--hope maybe I’ve been able to return the favor/pay it forward.

What are some of your favourite quotes that you have written?

This is a great excuse to reflect on what I have been doing so thank you for that. Let me preface this by saying that I love writing but readers make it fun, special and interesting. So I just wanted to say how enjoyable readers have made this experience. In the process of reviewing everything to try and pick out some quotes has made me realize that I did accomplish my starting goal-- I wrote some things that I wanted to read that remained unwritten and I am kind of happy with how things turned out. Here we go:   

“He kissed her as if she was the essence life itself and she kissed him as if by doing so she could bring him into the light.” --An Outlander Affair to Remember

“If my lips touch yours, Sassenach, I might no’ be able to stop. I’ve been holding heaven in my arms while you slept.” --An Outlander Affair to Remember

“Kiss me quick, all’s quiet, no one is coming.” Claire huffed as she dropped into his lap. “Aye? Well, if it ‘twas you coming, Sassenach, it certainly wouldna be quiet for long!” -- An Outlander Affair to Remember 

“I could have been content, you know...Everything changed when you came into Faith’s life.” Jamie could not remain silent. “Sassenach, I came into your life, too.” “I know. That’s it, exactly.” Tears gathered at the corners of her eyes, as if the truth of the statement made her heart break. -- This is Us

“Dearest LJ, If the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach; Your best chance is with a scalpel, not a spatula!” -- This is Us

“Sassenach, if ye think that kiss’ll help me focus on something other than how much I look forward to doing it again, I must tell ye I am no’ of the same mind as you. Come here, lass,” he said as he moved in for the kill. -- Queen’s Gambit

What is your writing process when writing your fanfics? 

I very specifically choose a quote or a scene or a theme from the source material and then challenge myself to drop it on its head and slide it from the OL-verse into my fic in a way that changes its meaning, reconstructs it or reinterprets it. This is true of all my stories except perhaps the Abby After Dark Collection-- which is a little less….literary in nature. This Is Us in particular uses many influences from the book-verse (and TV show too actually) and it has resonated with readers despite the fact that I know about half of the readers haven’t read all the books. I love the fact that it appeals to both kinds of readers.

Do you write during a specific time of day? 

I work looooong hours, I have a fairly busy life with my family and friends and so I try and attend to writing a little bit every day but some days more than others.

Do you ask for input from peers? 

Not in the way you mean--I don’t have a beta and I know it shows! But my peers are beyond supportive of me. We do discuss story arcs and character development, funny plot bunnies, etc. Especially when you get the odd mean anon. They are so great in those low moments. I have been blessed with cheerleaders in the fandom from day one. A lot of people ask how can they get traction for their work and on their blogs-- here is my best advice: team up with someone or several someones--There are artists out there, GIF makers, book analysis bloggers, script nerds, BTS photo blogs, photoshop wizards- find them team up-- @smoakingwaffles started really getting traction with @annalisedemoodboards and the Polaroid series. @futurelounging was just flat out funny and caught @bonnie-wee-swordsman‘s attention. I started on AO3 and @pissedoffsoka13 found me as did @thistlekat777 and really encouraged me to come to Tumblr and then @outlanderedandoverhere drew an amazing This Is Us the fic that is my blog banner and @cantrixgrisea started much as I did posting (but fanart on AO3)-- incredible stuff--and she is so adorable and funny. These are just a few of the ways people give input-- I learn everyday from what they are up to. 

Do you edit while you write or do you use a more stream-of-consciousness approach?

I am the worst proofreader in the world-- but I edit constantly, it’s why it takes a long time between posts. 

What is your favourite genre to write and why?

I don’t have one. I write more modern AUs. I am too much of a nerd about wanting to fact check things and it’s just easier to do that with a modern world setting. The only genre I don’t think I could do are the kinds of fics written by @futurelounging and @diversemediums and @kalendraashtar-- these fantasy/futuristic/past complexities that are fantastically unique.

What has been your favourite season of the show so far and why?

Season One 1-8 because a more perfect glorious season there never was. That is not to say that I haven’t been blown away by several episodes in all three seasons-- they have their strengths and weaknesses. 

Have you read any of Diana’s books? 

All of them and many side ones as well.    

Do you have a favourite book?

ABOSAA.    

Do you read/write fanfics for any other fandom?

Until a few years ago I hadn’t heard the phrase fandom let alone… so no.

What is one random fact about you that you have never revealed on Tumblr before?

I play Texas Hold ‘Em and a mean game of Oh Hell.   

And that’s Abby. Even though I haven’t added her stories to my archive YET, you can check out her fanfiction master list on her blog.

vol. 2 (early preview)

The first of three films, JEEN-YUHS is essentially a Kanye West home movie and it’s nostalgic and dreamy and narratively complex for being a work of nonfiction. The film is most effective in that it doesn’t pander to its audience or to the subject, because in JEEN-YUHS nothing about Kanye’s pre-fame years is up for interpretation. Everything is out on the table, face up, for the world to see and it’s incredible to watch for any Kanye West completionists. 

JEEN-YUHS: Part 1 is Dorothy Gale of Kansas pulling back the curtain to reveal the Great and Powerful Wizard of Oz is nothing more than a man, a mortal. 

JEEN-YUHS feels a lot like that, and gave me honestly all the clarification I needed on ‘The Man behind The Man’ or ‘the guy behind the guy,’ because really, to know one’s future you must know your past for a complete picture and JEEN-YUHS is comprehensive.

This is Kanye in full focus, no photoshop. Stripped nude and bare, and whether you love him or hate him, it all tracks and it's a lot of fun to watch. (Kanye buying a porn magazine is hilarious and makes sense with what we know about him now). JEEN-YUHS is the missing piece of the puzzle. 

Fast-forward, It’s the year 2022 and multi-hyphenate, billionaire lothario, Kanye West, is divorced (in the process, but not yet. from reality television star and law school graduate, Kim Kardashian, who he currently shares 4 small children with (North, Chicago, Saint, and Psalm). 

For work, Mr. West collects handsome paychecks from not one, but two lucrative multiyear corporate merchandising deals with Adidas and Gap, as well as income from his other independent musical/merch endeavors– he’s practically printing cash. 

Kanye West is a literal human ATM machine who as of late has been linked to Instagram personality and actress of Uncut Gems fame, Julia Fox, who he claims to be his new muse (but rumored by many as a PR revenge stunt to get back his now ex-wife and her relationship with SNL cast member and scum-bro-cover-boy, Pete Davidson). 

In another strange development, Kanye also bought a house (literally) across the street from Kim, which feels a bit disconcerting and a little OJ =which is a bit on the nose if you ask me.

But based on the narrative Instagram suggests, Fox is his new muse and girlfriend– one he dresses up in the newest Balenciaga and takes on dates to fancy dinners at famous New York restaurants and introduces to friends like Dave Chappelle and Marilyn Manson and Madonna, (real networking opportunities) and per most recent gossip columns–Fox was Kanye’s official date to this year’s New York Fashion Week. Fox reports about her and Kanye’s ever evolving relationship, bi-weekly, for Interview Magazine in a segment (cheekily) titled: Fox News. 

Their relationship continues to puzzle the citizens of the internet to this day. (Also, Kanye appears to want to really beat up Pete Davidson, like really bad).

Quickly, for time-reasons, some other noteworthy achievements are that he: ran unsuccessfully for president and voted for himself; and gave his life over to God and scripture, and has become a self-proclaimed, self-righteous, self-absorbed weapon for Christ, born again, I guess, to like, also sell $80 sweatshirts. (I don’t know).

There’s so much about “Kanye West”–or “Yeezy” or just “Kanye” without the “West” or “YEEZUS” which was during the time when he actually thought he was a god or now, most recently, just “Ye” but now it’s like “ye” but all lowercase because that’s how much he loves typography, I guess. He’s an anomaly and we can’t fully comprehend his antics really, because how could you? 

He’s all over the place; he’s such a Gemini, and we think we know, but we have no idea, which is a line I stole from MTV’s Diary (MTV is featured heavily in the film). So whether you’re a Day-One Stan, the occupational onlooker, some gossipy bottom feeder, or an amalgamation of the three–or practically any other niche “Kanye West” online forum subculture–we all have our assumptions about who we think the “real” Kanye West is but trying to understand Kanye West is like trying to quantify the unquantifiable. That is until now. 

JEEN-YUHS recontextualizes West through the intimate nuances of his larger-than-life personality and the events leading up to his superstardom. 

The film breezily peels back the thick, leathery Balenciaga layers of arguably one of the most talked about artists of all time–but what makes JEEN-YUHS so special, and lightyears ahead of any other modern music documentary, is that the subject, in this instance Kanye, doesn’t have final cut. So obviously concerned, Kanye aired out his grievances on his Instagram: 

“I’m going to say this kindly for the last time. (sic) I must get final edit and approval on this doc before it releases on Netflix. (sic) Open the edit room immediately so I can be in charge of my own image. Thank you in advance (rosy-cheek smiley face emoji)” 

Thankfully, that didn’t happen, because JEEN-YUHS is raw and unfiltered and unfettered and untouched by Kanye which is why the first film succeeds. It's USDA ‘Grade-A’ certified high-quality top sirloin, it’s juicy and gritty and with no hormones. Which is an enthusiastic way of me saying that it's cinematic in this Y2K-era MTV reality show but produced by Stan Lathan and Russell Simmons sort of way. Sincerely, I watched much of the film’s runtime, eyes wide open and sometimes forgetting it was archival footage and not a biopic of Kanye reenacting his rise to fame. 

JEEN-YUHS is like staring into a magic mirror and is engrossing from front to back just like The College Dropout (an album that has yet to have been released during the events of the film). Shot primarily during Kanye’s younger years, in 2002 to be exact, and almost 20 years ago–Kanye West was out there hustling to get signed; a visibly bright and impassioned young man with an undeniable gift for production but who dreamed of becoming a platinum selling rap star. 

The footage in JEEN-YUHS is incredible and you feel like you’ve stumbled upon never-before-seen footage from the Disney Vault or something. One of my favorite scenes from the doc involves Kanye sitting in the driver's seat of a car next to Talib Kweli while Mos Def stands just outside the passenger window, vibing to the music. Kanye, playing one of his tracks forgets to take out his retainer (because Kanye once wore dental braces) and pulls it out with a slobbery slurp in front of Black Star, and on camera. It’s awkward, but so brutally honest that it’s endearing. 

The Kanye West depicted in JEEN-YUHS, the ‘2002 Kanye West’ is a lovable dweeb (like an Aziz Ansari character), an affable outsider struggling to make it into  Roc-A-Fella Records, who–Dame Dash included and Jay Z excluded–obviously don’t (and secretly do) see Kanye’s vision of the future. 

But ‘2002 Kanye’ is Steve Urkel meets Roger from Sister, Sister; he's dorky, but charming and he’s got skills, and he’s trying to land a record deal. Even if he was unsure of his place in the hip hop zeitgeist, Kanye knew was a unique talent even back in 2002, when he first blurred the lines between conscious and mainstream rap lyricism by crafting a style and sound that for the time was unheard of. 

JEEN-YUHS highlights this point with some of the most unguarded and tender footage of Kanye West you'll ever see. But what the film makes blatantly clear is that Kanye differs from everyone else because he puts himself out there, relentlessly and undeterred, regardless of the outcome, because deep down, he knows he’s the dopest person alive. Even back then, Kanye knew he was a “JEEN-YUHS” and he was waiting for everyone else to catch up; bold and truly unafraid. Sometimes in the film, Kanye’s eyes go dark and void of life like a great white shark, which is eerie. 

There’s a line in the documentary where the co-director and narrator describes (and I’m paraphrasing) that in order for Kanye to succeed in the music industry, and secure a deal, he would either be offered one or he’d force his way into one somehow, but failure was never an option. Ever. 

If anything, by JEEN-YUHS’ account, Kanye failed upwards and onwards–but I wonder if having the cameras rolling 24/7, for nearly two decades, aided at all in Kanye’s ultimate success? Hear me out, but I believe that the subtle but consistent act of recording one’s life and actions and feelings with the sole purpose of reaching an intended goal, the chances of it happening, especially in Kanye West’s case, are highly probable (because it's basically, if you think about, long-term self-affirmations, which are proven to help people reach their goals and get what they want). 

If you say something enough times, you start to believe it, and if you have friends who follow you around and tape your every move–or awkward moment trying to get Jay Z to acknowledge you or when you staged an impromptu performance of an early demo of “Through the Wire” unsolicited in the Roc-A-Fella Records New York offices wearing a Tim Burton’s “Sleepy Hollow” movie merch tee, and to minimal fanfare–filming everything you say and do, every thought and opinion, can groom a person’s mind and their sense of importance. Kanye altered the threshold of his own brand of success by changing the rules of the game. 

And I’m sure at the time it felt like “The Kanye West Show” in his head, but at the time there was no real way of knowing if it was ever going to work out and what makes JEEN-YUHS so incredible is how even when it feels like his chances are hopeless, even though you know that the ultimate outcome is his success but you’re still straddling the edge of your seat hoping someone takes a shot on him.

In a memorable scene from the film’s climax—Kanye meanders through Times Square, wearing a t-shirt from Blade Runner and buys a porno mag from a sidewalk stall for 8 dollars, which he initially scoffs at for being expensive just before deviously claiming it (porn) a secret addiction of his. JEEN-YUHS is all about the context and clarification it provides.

As a way to shamelessly quote Kanye, part one of JEEN-YUHS is “that old Kanye, chop up the soul Kanye,” but in the grand scheme of things is nothing Earth-shattering, but all-around fun to watch. It’s not like I discovered any new things about Kanye that I didn’t already know, it's just now I have the verbal and visual confirmation of what I already assumed. That he worked tirelessly in the single-minded pursuit of bringing his unique cinematic vision that was ‘his life’ to the world. That he adored his mother and she adored him; and that he was (or still is) a pervert (all truth, no shade; “a fisherman always spots another fisherman” and all that). 

I’ll leave you with this, JEEN-YUHS is basically a remake of Revenge of the Nerds starring Kanye, a super-nerd who based on current day events got revenge on any/every single person who ever wrote him off, by (quite frankly) spazzing his way to the top of the charts and ultimately our hearts. Like I said, it's oddly endearing like watching one of your buddies make it.
