your psc secret santa again!

it's cool learning more about kmag! he's always kind of existed in the periphery for me, so it's nice to see who else is out there for the 2023 season. and ofc hearing why you adore him! i think i'm definitely getting an idea of what to make for your gift :)

some extra questions for funsies, no pressure to answer!

what impresses you most in a gifset? (e.g., good colouring, motion graphics, pleasing layout, etc)

when/why did you start watching f1?

do you celebrate christmas? if so, what are your favourite christmas traditions? and if not, what do you celebrate and what are your fav traditions for that holiday?

if you were stuck on an island and could only bring 5 things with you, what would you bring?

finally, just a heads up: i'm really hoping to get this to you by the 25th, but the workshop (as it were) is about a week behind on . everything 😅 definitely will get it delivered by the 31st!

hope you're taking care of yourself!

cheers x

hello hello ! hope you've had a good week :) dropping under the cut

hehe always happy to bring kmag into focus for people, even if it is just for the course of this gift ! he's such a gem

honestly whatever !! lmao i'm easily impressed and just love anything. vibrant coloring and sexy typography are delicious. i do really love stuff i'm not very good at/don't do often- like layout and motion graphics. but really everything. i love seeing other people's style

i'm a pretty new fan, i started watching just towards the end of summer break this year. my best friend basically talked so much about their favorite drivers so much that i went ok, fuck it, i'll watch dts and some interviews for you and then i ended up falling face first into the sport.

i do celebrate xmas, yeah! i really love just spending time with my family- my mom makes cinnamon twists and we eat and drink coffee before opening gifts together and its just really nice to sit around with my parents and siblings :)

oh god i'd be totally fucked but: a tent, a really sharp axe, some nature guidebook applicable to wherever i am, flares (lots of flares), and a bed. im probably not surviving this so i'd like to be able to at least have a little comfort, ok.

no problem !! i'm excited to see what u create, take your time and try not to overwhelm yourself <33

Hello! This is your PSC gif exchange anon!

I hope you are having an amzing day!

I have got the fandoms you signed up with, tho I am not really familiar with them. I have been looking around your tags and your blog and wanted to ask if you would be alright with getting something from other fandoms also?

Also wanted to ask what are your favourite colors?

Can't wait to start creating for you! <3

Hello!! So sorry it took me so long to respond, I’ve been having a rough week.

I am so excited about this exchange though! ❤️

Pink and purple are my favourites, but I do love all colours!

And yes, absolutely, if you’re not familiar with the fandoms I listed, I am totally fine with you choosing something we actually have in common. I honestly can’t even remember what I listed. If you use any of my favourite ladies, I’ll be happy!

[rogerhealey]

Hey there! Sorry some of those questions made you feel uncomfortable, I saw some of them going around on my dash and I thought they might be fun to do. Hope you're doing well! I am still working on your gift, hopefully it turns out okay. Sending you love <3 ~ PSC Secret Santa

Hey! That's alright! It's nice doing ask games too tbh! <3

I hope you're having a wonderful holiday or somehow your days bring you unforeseen presents. <3

[heelturndeux]

Hi, it's your psc anon again! 😁 I'm working on your set and I'm so excited to share it with you. Do you have any favorite tropes or effects that you like to see in gifsets? Or anything that you really don't like that I should avoid? 😅

I hope you've been having a good week! Do you have any fun plans coming up? Personally my week has been super busy, but I'm really looking forward to the upcoming holidays ❄

THIS IS SO LATE I'M SORRY AHHH

life leading up to christmas was a bit mad but i'ts lovely to hear from you again anyway - and i'm so excited to see it!! nothing i particularly don't like but i'm always a sucker for some blending and pretty typography

this week is reserved for catching up with email stuff and remembering how to be a person before i throw it all away again at new years 😅

[shining-stars]

hiii sorry for abandoning you again! my question for you today is who is what was your favorite plot line from ouat? - psc anon

heyy, no need to apologize i don't feel abandoned by you. i hope you're doing well. as for my favorite storyline from ouat i love the story arc of the first season with the dark curse. a close second is the neverland arc…i loved robbie kay as peter pan and the actress who played tinker bell. i also liked that we got to see ariel's backstory.

[sheppardsmckay]

well i can't wait to see what else you make!! i think next year i just want to gif more things in general. i kind of limited myself to a few fandoms but i want to challenge myself for sure! but i would like to use more effects/graphics in my gifs! but i hope you have a good weekend and holiday too!! i would love to know how it was!! -psc anon

thank you!! and yeah I’m pretty much the same, I’ve limited myself but I’d like to branch out a bit or learn more effects for my gifs. I’m excited to see what you make (and who you are anon :))

thanks!! It’s been crazy so far but a good crazy lol. :)

[chrrispine]

hello alison! (psc anon again)

omg Appy is such a cute name!! what kind of kitty are they? and those are all such great characters :)

i hope you’ve been having a good week! do you have any specific things/plans you like to do during the holiday season? hope you have a wonderful weekend!! ♥️ happy holidays!!

Hi again psc anon!! Appy is a big fluffy orange cat (think crookshanks from hp without the squished face)

My big plans for the next couple days are wrapping and making cookies! I'm also going to an escape room for the first time with friends!

Hope you have a wonderful weekend too and happy holidays!!!

[fawad-khan]

psc anon here: thank you for the recs!! i really love maisie’s songs i’ve listened to (not another rockstar might be my fave so far). my aunt made me listen to pasoori when it first came out djsjsjdjfj but it’s actually pretty good!!

on another note, what’s your favorite season? and what are your favorite aspects of it? <3

ahh you're very welcome!! <3 im so glad u enjoyed those songs, and omg i did love not another rockstar a lot, desperately waiting for mp2 lmao

hmmm i do love cooler seasons and winter is nice but my fav is autumn when its like transitioning from the hot to cold idk why, but i love the cozy vibes and obv the dark academia aesthetic for some reason and maybe the fact that i was also born in that season has something to do with it idk. i also do love it for being the period when spooky season takes place so there's that aspect too!!

[stellarspecter]

happy hanukkah tabi ♡

congrats on finishing classes!! I just wanna let u know I’ve been sick the past week so I haven't had time to finish your gift yet and I’ll post next week

literally 🤝 ur so real for stanning zac oyama “where’s your bulb now” altered my brain chemistry. acoc was so stressful even binging it. watching it live... ur so strong /gen. but hard agree the worldbuilding was wild. and that’s really cool that it inspired you!! animated toys sounds sick

have you watched wednesday yet?

what do you love to see in gifs? (like effects or quotes or layout or typography, anything)

what do you enjoy about making gifs?

and is there anything really good that’s happened to you lately?

hi! happy hanukkah/christmas/solstice/holidays to you too! no pressure to finish gifts early, i know i haven't made mine either 😅 we've got until the end of the year i'm not super worried about it lol

i have watched wednesday!! i finished it yesterday and i have been rotating tyler in my mind ever since. he is soooooo i could fix him i swear

there's not a lot that i don't like to see in gifs tbh, anytime someone does something cool and out of the box i'm usually a fan lol. i guess when it comes to specific effects i think it's cute when ppl use lil animations, or have like a gif shape insert overlay if that makes sense, or like anything cool with typography. but also like can't go wrong just a basic like song lyric set or something like i blorboify songs every day i get it lmao

i like how much more it makes me appreciate the source material! before i started making gifs at the beginning of the year my main form of fandom interaction was writing fanfiction, which is kind of the opposite of gifmaking in that it doesn't have to matter what happens in the actual show at all. but with gifmaking, i can't just pull a dynamic or scene out of thin air if there's no visual reference for it. (bobby wilson i wish you couldve had more screentime so i wouldn't have to use the same few scenes over and over 😭) but yeah giffing definitely gave me a greater appreciation and understanding for the source material. and i like being able to do graphic design type stuff i find it really fun lol

i got a job!! first day is tomorrow, i just finished all the paperwork, but yeah miraculously an escape room place nearby was hiring for the exact amount of time my winter break is, so now i won't just be sitting in the house lol

[violetsgauntlets]

hello cait, psc anon says hi ⛄. Oh, you like the rainbow, now I understand your tracking tag 🌈. Holidays are coming, what are you gonna do?, maybe you have a tradition in those days? i'm working on your gift right now! - happy holidays!! ❄

hello!

hehehe yes 😅🌈

yeah! on Christmas Eve I’ll be spending it with my good friends/their family (they’re like my second family/siblings), and then Christmas Day I’ll be going to my nanas, which should be nice!

What about you? Do you have any specific traditions, or things you’ll be doing? ♥️ hehehe I am excited! Happy holidays!! ❄️☃️

[bennydemarco]

I have been making your gift! I'd love to know more! So, I was wondering what are your current favorite lyrics and the songs they come from and why are they your current faves? -PSC gift exchange anon

ohh I am a bit unsure how to answer this, since english is not my native language and I just don't pay that much attention to lyrics when it comes to songs, I just go with the vibes. But here is a playlist with my current favourite songs, if that helps: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3xR1Ti1VYXWlh1F0AQUXHG?si=f1045e936923411c

[kmagsy-moved]

psc secret santa here again! 🎅

thanks for your answer earlier! will duly keep all that in mind...

if you feel up to it, here are some more Qs--no pressure to answer!

why do you like kevin?

any favourite moments in particular?

how would you rate/rank his eras from fav to least fav? (mclaren, renault, haas pre-2022, sportscar, haas 2022?)

when i think of kmag, i think of aus 2014 and other insane drives--are there any #iconique moments you always come back to?

opinion on dts footage?

i tried to not talk to much but like... if im given the chance to talk about kev by god i will. tucking under the cut <3

oh fuck. where do i even begin. i really just feel like- as far as it goes in f1- he's just pretty grounded. like everything u see in his interviews is just 'this guy is here to race'. he is just some guy who wants to go fast !! and that means that he really feels so much more nonchalant and straightforward to me than other drivers. he does not give a shit just give him a car and let him go. also he's just so. ugh loving towards the people in his life. like he's pretty private but when he talks about his family it just is so <3 also just him being a wet cat introvert is so personal. he's just very contained and keeps to himself and idk its very endearing AND it makes the whole narrative of him being misunderstood and portrayed as this extremely aggressive driver compelling to me. do i get he was a little bitchboy yes however the whole people (esp in dts) acting like he's some bad boy is hilarious when hes just some lil guy. on a more shallow note: he is extremely hot and im so obsessed with his smile (the EYE crinkles!)

there are... way too many but i will try to keep it short and specific. i do love his stanley cup kegstand and the bit in truth or lie where a) romain says kev used pick up lines on him and b) kev talks about lying to his teammate all the time lmao. like.... 1:31 into the spanish test vid where romain is peeking at kev's board. suck my balls incident. fred vasseur giving lil laura a flower and kev playing with laura in his car after bahrain are also <33

favorite to least favorite: haas pre 2022 (romain and him <3), haas 2022, renault, sportscar, mclaren (minus his podium)

some obvious picks from this year: brazil pole, his fight with vettel in the usgp, and bahrain. 2017 singapore battle with ocon and massa is also super super sexy and honestly and his races in 2018 are also <3 but i really cant think of anything that matches the same level of Insanity as his pole and podium.

totally fine! its a treasure trove for kev content

sorry that was so rambling LMAO i hope u have a great week <33

[rogerhealey]

Because I'm having fun with these questions, have some more! The character who deserved better? The character you would die for? The character you would kill for? The character you would kill? Something (or someone) that never fails to make you smile, even on a rough day? Sending you love :) ~ PSC anon

I'm glad you're having fun, too! <3

The character who deserved better?

Okay I feel like Eddie Carr (The Lost World: Jurassic Park) deserved better. The way he was still pressing on that reverse just so that he could save them in the trailer. A TRUE HERO.

Something (or someone) that never fails to make you smile, even on a rough day? Sending you love :)

This is a hard one but probably The Mummy and The Mummy Returns in terms of media! I love them both, tbh! Jonathan, Evy, and Ardeth are my faves who happen to make me smile.

If I don't feel like watching, I do my best to read quotes I've saved on my phone. <3

I skipped a few questions just because I feel uncomfortable answering them. (no harm tho! <3) I am sending you love too, PSC Anon! <3

[howiehans]

hi again!

i love argentina too! i was so happy europe didn't win!

i think my family might gather for new years but besides that, no. we love to see each other but we're not really into the holidays do you have any plans?

also.. how would you feel if i used the set for this month's event? 👉🏼👈🏼😬😇 (i do have an idea i wanna do, i'm asking just in case)

that’s sweet!! i hope you and your family have a good time <3 my family is just gonna get together for christmas and that’s pretty much it! it’ll be fun

i’m totally cool w that!! just as long as it’s okay with the admins because i’m not sure if you can use the gift as the event creation

[chikoriita]

Hello, fellow PSCer! I apologize for my delay in contacting you, but the truth is, this is not the first time that I try to talk to you. I have a bad memory, so I don't know if I started typing an ask and stopped for whatever reason of if I did send you a message and Tumblr ate it (because the hellsite does that a lot). Either way, I need to ask you: what are your favorite Disney movies? And MCU ones? Thanks and happy holidays!

Hi! Don't worry, I got your original question earlier :) I answered it here

[sheppardsmckay]

hello!! i just have one more question and then i'll ask a few random ones! what are your favorite colors?? and i wanted to ask about your giffing journey! what got you into it? and what are your favorite things to gif? and what do you plan to gif in the new year and want to learn? -psc anon

hi!! I hope you’re having a good week! My favorite color is purple, either violet or lavender, but I also love deep shades of red and blue and I know some people say it’s not color but I like grey lol.

I got into giffing because there were scenes from supernatural that I couldn’t find so I made them myself! I love giffing anything but specially spn or merlin, probably because there’s so much I can gif lol. I plan to stay in psc and gif for those challenges but I’d love to make a favorite tv/movies list maybe, and participate in more challenges (like merthurweek) hopefully! I also would love to learn more about blending and there’s so many cool effects I see that I’d love to figure out. What about you? What are some of the things you wanna gif or learn in 2023? have a good weekend and holiday!
