Paradise Lost - Part 8 Ilkyra 2016-01-22 | Not sure what to say about this. I wanted to play with simple shapes, and the first thing I thought of was pokemon or digimon style. So I opened up a stream, had people help me make characters based on a pokemon/digimon style, and WA-LA. I also wanted to play with a moving BG and some effects. Still need work on the effects, but I think I'm starting to get a grasp on how they work. I could have still played with this alot more, added in more fx stuff, but I've decided to call it finish here before I make it all messy.---------MAP: youtube.com/watch?v=VJgST7YyNasPatreon me here to follow my personal projects, animations, and art: patreon.com/ilkyra?ty=hPrograms Used: -Tvpaint Pro (Animations)-Clip Studio Paint (backgrounds)Song: Paradise Lost - Hollywood Undead

Only a Memory - Part 29 Ilkyra 2016-11-17 | MAP: goo.gl/Kiz7wC----This is my first time animating my dragon persona. This map was for me to experiment with my persona and to help me out of burnout. And I must say, I need to stop being lazy on the lineart process -_-. I gotta work on giving cleaner animation (wobbly lines ftw).In other news, I decided to push my shading techniques and say im half pleased and disappointed with this. I do feel this could be better. Some of the details appear to have gotten blurred or not sharp enough. Some of it is the post-rendering result, and some of it from using a too thick of a brush. I'm hoping next time I try this style, it'll turn out better.I WON'T DETAIL MY ANIMATIONS LIKE THIS IN THE FUTURE. This was for more the purpose of me seeing how this will turn out. More simple the coloring/shading is, I think the better :D
On Our Way - Part 8 (Gift) Ilkyra 2016-06-12 | For Map: goo.gl/smA6tf----------------------------------This is a gift for Rakusaru. I hope this comes as a surprise. Not only you get a puppet animation from me, but a map part of your character Musen. Just for being awesome and super supportive. This is for helping both emotionally and financially through the rough times I was going through, and I had wanted to do this for such a looooooooong time in secret.Also, to let people know, I'm not doing MAPs so much anymore. The last map thing I'll do is wrapping up my own map that I'm hosting. The only time I'll dish out a map is either for a gift for someone or a friend needs desperate map help. Other than that, I'll be working on commissioned work or making my own series on this channel. (which btw, casting call video is coming, i haven't forgotten)Anyway, I hope you enjoy this! I'm a bit of a sneaky little devil when it comes to these things.CHECK RAKUSARU OUT! She makes AMVs of MAPs and Animators in the MAP community. YT: goo.gl/41ObzrDA: http://goo.gl/XKmQ9W
Happily Ever After (Human) OC Map CLOSED (21/23 DONE) Ilkyra 2015-11-22 | MY FIRST MAP AND IT'S THEMED!!! WOOOO! I'll be waiting a day before assigning parts.Be warned, this is not for the common animator in this community. This is a HUMAN ONLY OC MAP. The main focus is humans. You can have side characters be animals, but this show is for humans. I am not bias on loving humans more than animals, but there needs to be more human love in this community. I've seen too many maps lately that are excluding human ocs as one of the rules.----------------Now, if you're interested in joining, please read the rules, otherwise, you're disqualified. 1. UM, if you got a gazillion maps to do, please don't kill yourself and sign up for this one. Only sign up if you know for sure you're going to meet the deadline. If you have circumstances (AKA school/family/Real life STUFF), please inform me. Or else I'll kick you out asap.2. Not first come, first serve. You must know how to animate. Have examples of your work on your channel (or provided with private links). I expect animation. Not eye blinks, PMVs, (dear god) Motion TWEENS, mouth flappin'... Go above and beyond the minimum please.3. This is a themed map. Go along with the theme I assigned each part. It's very story oriented. It is suppose to flow like a story even though everyone's characters are experiencing different things from one another. These themes are loose, and I'll define them better underneath the rules.4. Meet the Deadline.5. One part only Per an Animator. They range from 9-10 secs. I believe only two parts in this MAP are 7 and 8 secs.6. After assigning parts, I will give music. I suggest staying away from cutting the music yourself because it's not accurate. ON that note, Make your maps a tiny bit longer than the music just so that there is wiggle room between parts. (and i mean just a few frames longer than the cut. Don't need seconds.)8. Gore is allowed in parts themed: "Fight", "Finding Determination" and "Loss". In other parts, it is not allowed unless you can keep it in the minimum (no slashing throats and cutting people in parts that say "friendship", "hope", ect. cause that's just rude). "Adventure" can have some subtle, but please, not the focus.9. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, the main character of your MAP is suppose to be your human OC. They can have animal/mythical friends, but don't give your human OC 2 secs and your animal friends 8 secs. Humans are the stars of this show!10. I am a Strict Host. If you do not notify me that your part is going to be delay by the time deadline comes around Or you dropping, you will get kicked without notification. If you're going to not make it, let me know. I don't bite. I have Real Life too. I understand. But you silent squatters, I won't forgive you for not letting me know and keeping a Part occupied when someone else could have jumped on it sooner.11. Please read the rules. Once you have, type "Camp Julia".Deadline: January 1st.------------------[Parts]http://sta.sh/016rr8rkoeit------------------[THEMES:]Introduction - characters meeting, introduce your characters to the audience, who's the main character, setting, world, ect. This is where we get to know your world/characters. Adventure - this is what your characters do along their journey. Fight monsters, team up with people, Quirky funny moments with other characters. This is where the journey takes place and where the fun is.Friendship - the focus on this part is making friends with people/animals whoever. It's the primarily focus on these parts. This is where they get their band/team to go out and face the world. Meeting peeps. Doing funny things with your cinnamon rolls, OTPs, ect. If you want to explore love, go for it. I consider that as an intimate friendship.Hardship - This is where the hard part comes in the journey. Tough decisions being made. People fighting, Things are just not looking great. This is where everything is just going wrong. Someone is in trouble. Sad news have been broken to someone. Someone is dying. Think of times in your life where you felt things just start to go downhill.Fight - these parts are Action oriented. I highly recommend these parts for more experience animators. When I say fight, the characters don't need to actually be fighting something or someone (you can), but there is something that they are fighting for or against. An argument for example can be considered a fight.Loss - this is a special part. Loss is when your main character has lost the most crucial thing to them. Death of love one, friend. Fallen. Ect. Think tragedy. Finding Determination - another special part where the character is transitioning from lost of hope into a hopeful state. This part is where the character pulls him/herself out of the darkest night of the soul. Hope - This is where things start turning from the darkest to the bright. Character reunions, victories, a future, ect. The worst is behind them.-----------Music - Happily Ever After - He is We
Shut Up! (72 Hour Oc Map) Part 22 Ilkyra 2015-10-23 | So sorry for being late. I blame it on not getting on top of it as soon as I got the part. DX I also shot myself in the foot thinking a concert type of MAP part would be awesome. Only now I realized it was alot more work than I thought.But overall, enjoyed this Map part. I love trying something new and different. It was a new challenge for me under a period of time.This character here is something I pulled together in 30 minutes. I don't have an 'animal' character. Usually they are either human or dragons. So I gave a shot at a stylized....... fox? I have no idea what he is now, but yeah, that was the original direction. As I continued to work on this, I wanted to do more, but that time limit made me restrain myself (which might be a good thing?).Also props to Spottedfire25(?) for that Korean pronunciation doc. Life saver.Anyway, thank you for being patient with me. Here's the file: dropbox.com/s/3v50h7xwo8dlsm6/Part22_v3.avi?dl=0MAP: youtube.com/watch?v=0WDZoQxEyagThat last shot also features Kay2036, starwishy, Fausti A., DreamRising, Chiibe, FluffyLovey, Hullu_Richie, Camy, LotusTheTiger, and MtfoxX3. Characters belong to their respective owners.
Blue Blood Mini AMV Ilkyra 2015-09-01 | This is for Skailla's contest, and I do not own any of the characters here. Unfortunately, the rendering of this video had loads of trouble (and still does). The colors are off, and there is an odd flickering at the beginning. I tried to fix it, but it seems to be apart of premiere's settings.Anyway, mini amv is mini. It is very short, and I apologize for its shortness. I had much planned for it, but I ran out of time :( Maybe if I still have the mojo juice, I'll continue working on those shots and post an update video later. They were cool and really fun shots.Characters belong to: http://skailla.deviantart.comReferenced Storyboard: youtube.com/watch?v=-aRPY45jcjcContest: skailla.deviantart.com/journal/CINTIQ-CONTEST-IS-ON-543423836
Experience of the Night - Darkness Ilkyra 2014-10-04 | For my Visual Art Class. This was compiled together in two and a half days. I got a nice response from the class and was encouraged to put this up online for access. This small quick film has a mix of avant garde with some linear story-telling.The idea of the project was to express the experience of the night, and the themes I covered for it were vulnerability, manifestation, and the sense of imposing danger. Specifically, I tackled the senses of how it feels to go through a patch of darkness in the road at night.Experimenting with shot choices, sequences, and light effects.I also wanted to give you guys something new and an update. I've been incredibly busy on my end with school, work, and CC. Balancing all that has been a new challenge for me. Regardless, I'm still hanging in there and keeping up with the work.Music: Zack Hemsey - That Which You Seek (Finds You)
Runnin - Part 24-26 Ilkyra 2014-07-03 | So... this is not my character. This is Avariah's character for her series. This is a very... simplified version of her cause yeah... colors.... and I got experimental....ish. Okay, I lied. I got super lazy on shading for this part, but I made up for it with highlights. Hope you like it still *sweats*Anyway, yeah, gonna be inactive for awhile cause I'm working on CC part 1 atm. Sooo, sorry for the inactivity guys *gives a small wave*.OH! I will also be at Anime Expo. I'll be carrying around a Scylla plushie (my white dragon character) on my shoulders. http://ilkyra.deviantart.com/art/Scylla-Plushie-465312101 So if you spot me, don't be afraid to say hi. :DCharacter: youtube.com/user/frostwolf2580MAP: youtube.com/watch?v=79yZOH3_O2Y
Lantern Man Ilkyra 2013-10-16 | This is a film I made last year with another animator. This was my first official film with animation, and I'm a bit proud of it. We were given a semester to finish it, and it turned out a lot longer than we anticipated (film was suppose to be 1-3 minutes - that was the minimum and maximum time frame for a Sophomore film). You'll see at parts that a lot of the animation/drawings aren't complete (because we ran out of time). But nonetheless, we passed the class.It is more of a symbolic/metaphorical story than an actual adventure. The story was inspired by the folklore of the lantern men (lights that led strangers into swamps). But in this case, we changed it where this lantern man is looking for those lights.
Rollin in the Deep Part 4 Ilkyra 2013-08-04 | A nice quick break from my Chasm Crossing characters. This wolf was in the 'old version of the Chasm Crossing story', and I thought I'd give him his time to shine.Testing out my skills on this quick Map. Originally was only going to give myself one day to finish this, but the day I started, my parents decided to kidnap me from my work. Then the following day, I marathon an anime... and then finally yesterday, I kicked my butt back into gear. Took me three days to finish this. Not bad though I'd say my coloring is messy and all over the place. I do like my new "shading" technique (more like highlights) in this. Will use more in future animations. And I wanted to 'animate' something messy and squishy coming out of the ground. Blehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. not happenin. Turned into some mud-monster crocodile. And... another map will be uploaded in the next day or two.... gotta make those deadlines XDDL: dropbox.com/s/tvg1sp7mn198u0m/map6.wmv
Shingeki No Kyojin Speed Animation Study Ilkyra 2013-07-11 | The program I am using in this video is called TVPaint Pro. BEFORE ANYONE ASKS.This is a speed animation study I wanted to do for a long time. In a way, this is like fanart for the series, but I'm replica one of the shots in the anime.PROCESS: Before this video, I roughly laid out keys as you will see in draft one at the end of this video. Once those keys were laid out, I went back through the animation and added in-betweens to smooth it out(draft 2). then i went to rough it.The song is called Body Motion from the Shingeki no Kyojin Soundtrack. I own no rights to the song nor do I own the art direction of this animation. This is a speed animation study.
Wish I May OC MAP Parts 19-22 Ilkyra 2013-04-03 | EDIT: I hate rendering and youtube processing. They added black frames where none should be. Sorry peeps about that.Finally have this done. Sorry for such a long delay, but I've learned to never do a 30 second MAP. It takes too much time on my part, and this isn't as good as I would like it to be. It doesn't flow well for the song (in my perspective). But nonetheless, it was fun animating it and learned a few things.Animation (c) Me
Dragon Stumble Test Ilkyra 2008-06-30 | Created under an Anime program. It isn't much nor am I going crazy over this. It's just a anime dragon stumbling on all fours... Very old video. Created by me (c) Ilkyra Program: Anime Studio
