Monday a friend suggested his team might need me to do some story boards for some videos they&#8217;re handling for a big corporation. I worked hard all day tuesday to deliver some flash mock ups for the local video game making project. then wednesday i sat down and cranked out a sample storyboard sequence to try and land the job. I got the job. then thursday i sat around mostly fretting over how not to make an ass of myself (while also doing my finances, and spitballing various concepts to convey the video&#8217;s proposed message), and then got a call to head downtown and discuss the first video in detail. Today, er, yesterday- friday &#8211; I spent alllll day cranking out the first official boards. then i realized i was out of time,\u00a0(the guy wanted them asap, to show the client), so i skipped polishing them and made up a sequence with the raw pencils.<\/p>\n<p>a questionable move. hoping i didn&#8217;t make a mistake there. ehhhh.<\/p>\n<p>but now i find myself beyond exhausted. too many hours without enough breaks. if you figure i made 20 drawings on wednesday, and 59 today, that&#8217;s like making 3 pages of a comic book in one day, spending the next day feeling sick with nervous idiocy, then making 10 pages the following day. 10 fucking pages is insane.\u00a0I usually feel great if i can manage one page in a day. INSANE! not to mention all the focus\/stress of trying to juggle concepts and storytelling\/editing and vectors in your head. there is no room left in my head. i can&#8217;t remember what i was going to do this week for vidHero. ugh. though i do feel like i&#8217;m battering myself into a faster working methodologgygygygyg<\/p>\n<p>ANd in theory, i should sit down first thing tomorrow morning and start polishing the drawings, for max professionalitytytytytyt,y.<\/p>\n<p>but. geez. i dunno. i&#8217;m lightly hoping they&#8217;ll be thrilled with the raw pencils. though they seem embarassing to me. though i&#8217;ve underestimated people&#8217;s enjoyment of my rough work before. though. ugh.<\/p>\n<p>anywho. it&#8217;s late. time for sleep. just noting the news.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SUPER INSANE-O-PANTS! sooo, i&#8217;m out of my mind with busy.
