stuff all filmed, sitting down for a nice chill editing evening. videos very very soon!

decided to try a recording workflow where I just leave the mic recording and cut takes out after. which is way easier than start-stop, start-stop, on each take trying to get the "good" one before proceeding. in hindsight... yeah. this might seem obvious to someone doing pro recording haha.

feh! was wanting to work on video script today but am in need of a nap first, at least. body decided that 3am was time-to-get-up-time for some reason and I'm just sleeebbgly

I made some new syrups and beverages for the Burrow! Come try them out! 🧡☕️

Big things have been happening on the VR Filmmaking side of things! Dare I say it's... 🌌GALACTIC🌌 with @kanjon.art @dodgerakame.bsky.social @searing.bsky.social @maglot.bsky.social and myself

I know it's been A Moment but I've been letting some ideas simmer for videos. one just jumped up to the top of my head today and I think it'll be a good one. theme: general motivation / creativity, sprinkled with optimism.

current activity: making a 3D print mount for my feet trackers to go onto crocs, specifically figment crocs

Finding your motivation in art can be a rewarding experience. But getting there, struggling through the practice, fitting the time in... it's another story. Let's hear about folks' questions and puzzles in this 30 minute (!) Q&A! ⏯️ youtu.be/_6U98HqNUCc #kanjonsclips #artist #learntodraw

Q&A overflow just for you youtube.com/shorts/Ycc19... god bluesky kills shorts thumbnails

premiere was fun! quite a few folks watching and hanging out in chat. won't do this for every video, but will definitely do it again. for now, I get to make a shitpost short. my junk food

ok I uhhh think I did this right! here's the premiere page for Q&A, starting in an hour. watch along live when it begins! I'll be in chat. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6U9...

Q&A should be up tomorrow! finishing final edits in the morning. it's uh. 34 minutes long

This one took ~42 hours

recording the last of voiceover for final filming day while this is bouncing around in my head youtu.be/6lhbYWbPmkE

every take filmed has a ~3sec buffer at the start to do a walk-in, account for timing, and just be a good safety buffer. but sometimes I use it to get into character

made a post about this on YT: am working through Q&A in earnest! some of the voiceover is done; doing more of that and some filming today. I want to put this all into one Q&A video instead of splitting it up, hence the extra time. should be good!

go for it

Neck study

There are two reasons you can't get yourself to draw: 1. It's too easy (boring) 2. It's too hard (frustrating) If it’s boring, draw something challenging. If it’s frustrating, draw something just outside your comfort zone. Push it too far either way and you burn out.

AI-generated artwork is officially not eligible for copyright protection after the U.S. Supreme Court declined to review the appeal. The court ruled that a work must have a human creator in order to qualify for copyright. (Link: www.reuters.com/legal/govern...)

editing this script has got me thinking that I'm going to need a *lot* of different places in a world to film in. or I use multiple worlds. or I just scale down to be a little guy and suddenly there's loads of places to film in. haven't picked a world yet for sure. open to suggestions!

musing about a job posting I stumbled into where they need a video producer with software development experience. I am weirdly qualified for this job in a way that would make for a very fun interview. cover letter: "so... do you know what a furry is?"

doing a good bit of work on Q&A this week. so many excellent questions submitted, I’m going to try to do as much as I can. there’s a few that are so similar that I might try to answer around the same time. I haven’t actually written down a script yet but this feels like a 30-40 minute video haha.

and it's here! March's drawing calendar is back with food! that done... I'm going to go get take-out. maybe draw it? but probably eat it. the food, not the drawing. well... probably. as always, free printable PDF in several formats: kanjon.link/calendar

freshened up the decor on my YouTube channel page; now the main section you (and potential artist friends) will see is a colorful lineup my favorite art resources. more to come! check it out: www.youtube.com/@MtKanjon

I CAUGHT A @kanjon.art !

not having face tracking means taking advantage of any time my eyes happen to be looking at the camera

March calendar going up in just a bit! also if anyone was trying to grab the 2025 calendars, I accidentally broke those links and didn't notice for a few weeks. 🫣 it's fixed!

Maglot's put together an incredible short film here, and I gotta gush about how well-edited and shot this is. Go watch it! If you need further enticement, there's a Business Kanjon playing a part of the story.

currently redoing a few older videos' thumbnails to match my hand-drawn recent ones. I'd like to feature a "starting from scratch" section on my channel homepage with some core resources for drawing, and I think it'll look nice if they all mesh well. :3

Looks like @dodgerakame.bsky.social is in trouble! feat @kanjon.art @thehardplace.bsky.social

back home. now sleep 🦊💤

10 hours left on flight one, I’ve saved the Q&A questions and am gonna try to smash thoughts out on a keyboard. …looking at some of those I see I forgot to set the character limit for the unrelated question category. whoops.

ok long flight BUT am surrounded by a bunch of other furries. hell yea. we have already begun the sticker trade

if I make this connection can I have a cookie buuuut I’ve not seen any of Iceland so if I end up with an airline-paid night in the city, heyyyy

back on the train for the journey home. had a blast at NFC again, so many familiar and new friends. probably my favorite con! definitely want to return. the production and con ambience is unmatched. 📷 @tigerloon.bsky.social

I've got a BIG video packed with my favorite drawing tips I've used over the years. Art-curious or long-timer, I'm sure you'll find some useful goodies inside. Enjoy! ⏯️ youtu.be/CqgXD8G5NfE #kanjonsclips #artist #learntodraw

@suff.bsky.social caught the moment at the TSA checkpoint where I got to show them my fursuit the paws showed up brightly on the scanner as a perfect paw print 🐾
