Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

Within time of animating, and having a good time at it. Usually your finished product turns out either a total disaster or a victorious product. I've been thinking alot about animating, but I haven't been able to be inspired enough to even start on working any projects which is really weird for me.

I haven't been around for a while on Newgrounds though. I've checked it a few times the previous week, but that's really it. I just lost interest a bit. As well, probably the flash scene in general. Maybe, it's just a phase I'm going through that I'll eventually grow out of.

I used to love animating, but for some reason, about 2-3 weeks ago, or maybe even last month I've lost interest. I'm probably going to pick up animating again, but I quite don't know when. Maybe, I'll go on a Newgrounds/Animation break, take a little vacation from it all for a bit. Drink a bit, and just sink in my utter-not success of this life of mine.

Animating was a hobby of mine, but for some reason maybe I should just back away from it for a bit. School is starting tomorrow, and this is the first time I've checked the Lounge in a while. I'm trying to see what's going on here, how everyone's lives are doing, what's exactly happening. You guys may not see my face around here for a while. I'll be taking an animation break, maybe I'll update my blog here and there but that's really it.

Hm, that sounds good. See you all maybe in 2 months. I may crack an animation or two out for the holidays. No idea yet. But All I know now, It'll probably be nothing promising. I'm a mess.

If you're even interested in talking to me; I guess contact through email or MSN/AIM. I highly doubt it though.

Hah, Yeah.

It happens... I go through periods of inspiration and periods where I have a hard time making anything happen. You'll probably feel inspired at some point in the future, whether it be to make Flash or make something in a different medium. See ya then! :)

Hah, thanks for your feedback. I guess it does happen. I'll try to be inspired near the future, I was going to have something big for Madness Day too. Oh well. There is always next year. Thanks again.

for me, the hardest part of animating is getting the will to start. Once I've started it seems that the momentum begins to build and it carries me for the rest of the project. This may or may not work for you, but just an idea :D

Sep. 4, 2007 | 8:33 PM Rudy responds:

Hm, It is always hard to start, once you've started it seems easier. I agree, I just have to have the will to start. This may be hard.

well i seriously hope you dont juts give up, specially now that you have a tablet and are getting better. please come with something solo and cool and not another random collab :/

Sep. 4, 2007 | 8:34 PM Rudy responds:

Yeah, I know what you mean. I do have a random collab piece I have to throw together though. Hm, maybe soon I'll think of something -- it's just hard to think, and get the time. But I'll see what I can do.

Same thing happens to me. I once took a 3 month hiatus from flash. :/

You'll be back though. :3

Sep. 4, 2007 | 8:34 PM Rudy responds:

Hopefully, I'll be back. Hopefully.

Hooblah KHAN!

Well, I think you're a great user to have around here. And every once in a while everyone deserves a break. I went through a phase like that, but eventually returned to Newgrounds knowing I really wanted to be there.

I just hope you don't give up, make sure to "control" your break.

Best of luck!

Hey Smartdog!,

Thanks for your comment, really. I'll take you for your word. I don't know if I'm really a great user around here, but we'll see. I'm trying. Also, I won't let this "break" get out of hand either. I'll try to control it. I opened up Flash last night, and I just animated like some running cycle, it turned out alright. I just need to work on it. Probably won't touch Flash for another week or so.

School is killer.

This JUST happend to me, but im back up and running, and no doubt you will be too in a week or so.

Sep. 12, 2007 | 6:28 AM Rudy responds:

It's been over a week, already. I think it may last for the rest of the month, atleast. Or maybe two. It all depends how I'm feeling, if I'm busy, what I'm doing, along with what's going on in my life.

So we'll see.
