716 Deviations, 387 Messages. When am I going to learn to stop procrastinating?

So anyway, here's my final animation from uni --> [link]

And here's a little something I made for Halloween --> [link]

If you like the music to the Halloween animation, you can hear the full song here --> [link]

Well, a LOT has happened since I last logged in... which apparently was in July... wow, that's embarrassing... and most recently since I finished college I've had some freelance work, but so far have had no luck getting a full-time job. I'd heard animation's a rough business to get into, and now I know why! I'm also in the process of setting up my own website at the moment.

I plan on starting online commissions in the near future (once I've uploaded some of my more recent work). Anyone interested in an animated icon?

Also I'm in a musical this week. The show's over 3 hours long, and we're doing 6 performances. It might take me a while to go through all those updates but I'll get there. Eventually. Maybe. We'll see. :D

Finished university!

I got my final result today - it's a 2.1, and that'll probably mean nothing to most people :lol: but to put it simply, it's a good mark and until my coursework went badly downhill this year it was what I'd been predicted. Fortunately, my work from last year and my dissertation (which I did this year but got a very high mark for) pulled my grade up enough to get the one I wanted. I wasn't quite expecting to make it though, so I'm really surprised and happy now!

The past few weeks have been insane. We're doing an exhibition next week and have been preparing. So yeah, insanity. I've also started applying for animation jobs and whatnot.

I'm also in the process of creating my own website. When that's up and running I'm going to put my animations and comics on there, including my final for university. I'm also currently working on 2 non-profit collaborations; a flash game and a music video. They'll be going on the website too!

... crud.

That'll teach me to disappear off the face of the earth.

Anyhoo, I've finished all my university coursework FOR EVAH!! Also we had our exhibition at the college last Tuesday, and now all that's left is a second exhibition at London. Then the graduation ceremony at the end of September. And I'm pretty much done. I'm currently looking for animation jobs and whatnot, which much appreciated help from the college staff too. :D The past couple of months have been absolute chaos, as any of you fellow college kids can probably imagine. :lol:

Portfolio Account + INSANITY!!

Just to let ya'll know, I've made a side account for my portfolio work (which I need since I finish university in just over a month) which is :iconglelsey:. I'm transferring a few bits from this account to there. Just letting you all know so you don't think that I'm stealing my own artwork or anything XD

And I also have a huge amount of messages and deviations to go through, which I neglected due to college work. While I'm online, I'll go through the updates I already have, but just giving you all the heads up in case you send me a message and I don't reply for a few weeks! Things are just going to be crazy for the next month and I doubt I'll keep up to date with it all.

What, no Mudkipz?

Still, the fake bans on the staff members are pretty fun, as are the beta testing icons. So what are they, snowmen wearing buckets on their head? XD

So far this year's been chaotic. First, the bad stuff. In January my Nan died (after being in hospital for a very stressful few weeks). In February, days after the funeral, my dissertation for college was due in. Also, my grade for last semester was a couple of marks below my predicted grade, which wasn't good either. Still, hanging in there and things finally seem to be turning round...

Now onto the good stuff. All last week I performed in a musical with my drama group - "Calamity Jane", and it was really fun! Not only that, but we received great reviews and even though the show looked like it would be a disaster 2 weeks before things suddenly improved at the end. Also, since losing Nan, we've been inviting my Grandad round a few times a week and he's really doing well. I'm also planning my 21st at the moment, which is coming much too quickly! Oh well. XD Also, even though my last college project was a flop, the one I'm currently working on is going much better and I've received some really nice comments from friends, family and classmates. I'll upload it when it's finished, which will be in 8 weeks!

I'm currently in the process of putting together my professional portfolio too, which requires creating some new artwork because I just don't have enough to put in it yet, so hopefully that'll get me more active here again!

So yeah. THAT'S why I've hardly uploaded anything this year so far. It's been crazy. :P
