I've been watching Stardust's vids for over a year now and her editing skills/style never ceases to amaze me! She's one of the very few editors that not only produces QUALITY vids but in QUANTITY!! 😵 But even more special and dear to me is that she is a Christian editor with a heart for God. 🤍
Hope you enjoy this special collab! Maybe in the future we can do more, who knows.

My part to DreamingOnTheMoons 6th MEP!! As you can see, we got to mash it up a bit with 5 movies this time. I chose my 3 favs that I HAVE seen. (Yet to see MvA, and Megamind) I fell in ♥ with this song; its PERFECT for these movies. (Especially one special movie IMHO ;) I could have easily made it solely for HTTYD but I was eager to mash again! In spite of a surprising slow start, I guess it came out satisfactory. Hopefully I didnt hit any repeated clips from any one else part. (:
Footage: Rise of the Guardians, Kung Fu Panda 1 & 2, How To Train Your Dragon, Gift of the Night Fury, Riders of Berk [eps 5, 8, 13, 14, 20]

Hello!! Its been awhile.....but dont worry, I have more than one surprise for today of all days. ;)
Link to Year #1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKHsZBVHxoo&t=2s
✎ This has got to be the cringiest video for me. Honestly, most of this should not even see the light of day, BUT, since I like to keep record of everything....I decided to at least give ALL of my work a proper sign off. I should have had this done last summer but I was away in Europe. (Hard to believe that now.) So here we are! Ill be doing something for this year as well.
BUT FIRST, some history:
✎My 2nd year at SAU was, safe to say, the BEST year out of three. It was also the nuttiest because in order to save money I did Sophomore & Junior years worth of animation work at once. (Do not recommend doing that.)
Let me break down each semester and class from the video.
So during the Fall of 2018, I was drowning with 19 credit hrs. Funny enough though, I never felt more alive than when I was DYING during all this.
At SAU, Sophomore year your goal is to make a 30 sec short film, touching all parts of the animation pipeline: storyboard, design, model, rig, environment, animating, VFX, lighting/render. (By yourself) However, all your classes contribute to a common goal.
SEMESTER #1
0:04 Character Design:
Im ready to hold a Viking Funeral for Finn here, lol! This one class was basically animation on steroids. You are not designing characters. You design 1 character, model, sculpt, add blendshapes at the last minute for facial expressions, then rig and paint weights + add clothes and hair, all in 16 weeks. Really, character designing needs to be broken up into multiple classes because its so dense. Designing/drawing characters is NOT my thing at all! As you can see, he deviated from my original design, and model wise lacks appeal, and in terms of the rig is very limited in function/expressions, BUT out of 13 students, I was 1 of 2 that actually finished so Im not gonna complain.
Software: Modeled in Maya. Sculpt in Mudbox. Used Mgear for rigging. Marvelous Designer for clothes. Vray to render.
0:20 Visual Development
Honestly, this is NOT an accurate example of what viz dev is. Viz Dev is all about trying to capture what the look/feel of the project should be through color and various design iterations. This is basically me just learning to paint in Photoshop, lol. (This was my first time digitally painting so take it easy on me!) Most of these are 2 hrs studios, recorded, so there wasnt time to make it look pretty anyway, but if I can survive in class critiques, than I can handle showing you guys these. This class was the 1 chill moment of my day usually ;)
0:36 Storyboarding
I personally do not enjoy storyboarding, but I really enjoyed this class. Hendel Butoy, our professor was a director from Disney, and just hearing him talk about the art of cinematics was so fascinating!
Torchlight: https://youtu.be/3qbbBPstNR8
The MockingBird: https://youtu.be/hvP3LnBGxq4
1:00 Character Animation I
This is the class its all about right? RIGHT! Especially when we had Hendel teaching us the secretes! *sobs* Finally get to apply the principles of 2D animation to 3D characters!
The other classes for Semester 1 were Collab and Programming for Artist. Ill get to Collab, but there was no fun way of showing lines of code so Im just noting it here. I learned some basic Python coding skills but boy it was a lot harder than my professor said it be. That made my 19 credit semester.
SEMESTER #2
1:43 Environment Design
After making your character from Character Design from semester 1 for your sophomore short, next step is the environment. Learned a lot to keep a neat and tidy Maya scene so it runs efficiently, lol! I had a lot of fun making the world for Finn, ahehe.
1:52 Compositing
This was a very tedious class, right in line with my VFX route. We learned a node based compositing software called Nuke. The CG integration was my favorite! (Had to have a dragon in every project, lol!)
2:20 Collaborative Studios
At SAU, your whole Junior year is a little different in that you spend the year working with your class on a short film. Unlike Sophomore year, you specialize in 1 or a few areas in the pipeline and work collaboratively. (Like in a studio) This was my FAVORITE class, but socially very, very, VERY uncomfortable steps out of my comfort zone. This was a 4 credit hr. class, meaning we spent 5 hours straight in-class time working. (Many more hours outside of class)
Please note: I cannot yet link the full vid because we havent officially released it. Also, I only highlighted the areas I worked in, including: producing, modeling the environment and set dressing the shots, and doing the character textures. Then everyone animates at least a couple shots. I did about 6 total. There was a lot more work and effort done by my team to bring this project to life that I didnt showcase.

This song takes such a sharp twist between being an explicit HTTYD 1 coded song to angst Hiccstrid and I am OBSESSED!!
I also want to again say a MASSIVE BIG THANK YOU FOR 20,000 SUBS!!! After 14 years I never would have dreamed this, and I couldnt have done it without yall! I love all you passionate dragon fans, new and old, and appreciate your support and comments!! 💞🙏😊
This video is for you extra special. I tried to put a lot of TLC into it with masks/texts fx. This was a complex vid to finish in 6 days but the beauty of art came to me swiftly, ahehehe! And yall were subbing fast too so, yaaaay!! 🤭
If you havent listened to Marcus Warner yet you really should! And check out his NEW beautiful lyric vid with the FULL version of this song. (I did trim it to fit Hiccstrid better.) It has really pretty animations!

❛❛ You can win the battle but you cant beat time... ❜❜
✎ Time to complete The Wild Robot songs that are also just made for HTTYD 😉
Since my https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ys3CpBaKpW0 vid was kept more simple and nostalgic of the first film, I decided to go all out with this one and use everything, which consequently took much longer to complete.
That ending VOs sounded so much better in my head but I think it ties the two movies and song together. Do you recognize it? Its one of the deleted scenes in HTTYD3. Who would have thought there was a Wild Robot scene that could have been in HTTYD3?? 😮
Anywho I hope you enjoy this one and have a Merry Christmas!!!! 🎄
Unfortunately I dont have a Christmas-themed vid this year but its Dragons! I hope to make more next year and Ill need to do a new Moana vid 😊

Hurray! My first MEP for Our first MEP in DreamingontheMoon (DOTM). What an honor! Feel free to check out their channel and sub! (:
http://www.youtube.com/user/DreamingOnTheMoonST
Hope you like it! This is the first mini vid Ive done with Astrid; I must admit I got real into her character editing this! As you can see, I crammed in as many clips of her that I had left at the end. Not sure about the overlay though; tell me what you think. The only thing I miss is my signature...gotta follow rules. Oh and @DOTM: Ill send it to you ASAP. Goodness, this is my shortest description in ages; must have used up all my words earlier ;)
Wow, what a win on the thumbnail, ROFL!!! =D")
