Collaboration anyone?
Hey! I love collaborating. *Comic Jams - this would be online unless you're in Perth, Australia. *Illustrations - would love to work with a colourist. But also all sorts of illustration collaborations. *Animation. Incl, art, voice acting, music, etc etc.
new short films. + update
View my new short films- https://www.youtube.com/studioskiesandwater/videos One in particular is "The Ice Crystal" which has many episodes yet to come, I hope to compile it into a feature length movie one day but one step at a time! I hope the 2D animation film industry all over the world grows! and also in my city I reside in. :)
DeviantART's new major update is changing everything which I don't really like, which may stop me from posting. (I use the old version of reddit still!) I might just post the same stuff I post on https://www.artstation.com/eltonnnnnn which is the best of the best. Most professional and semi-professional artists stick to Artstation and Instagram etc., and this update is just going to enforce more people to finally stop posting on deviantart as that has been the trend over the years. More on my website- www.elton.strikingly.com and instagram- https://www.instagram.com/elton_d_souza_art/ I will still be checking in to see the people i'm subscribed to here on DeviantART, though I expect that to be reduced, and I will look into making sure I am following them elsewhere. Art is sick. Melee is sick. (smash bros melee)
A last message;
With climate change, environment destruction, etc. with lots of health problems related to the consumption of animal products. And with ethical consideration, I urge everyone to gradually stop consuming animal products until you eventually phase it out 100% or just phase it out 100% ASAP. There are tonnes of resources online such as www.reddit.com/r/vegan and the vegan challenges, etc etc.

Reflecting on my old DeviantArt posts
Classic.
Many artists delete their old art and old blog posts. I think they do that in the off-chance it comes into a modern context which isn't fair.
As long as it is hidden and out of way to some extent I think it should be fine to keep these old posts. I have a main website now and also an ArtStatiion of which is a professional way to display your work to clients. I also have an Instagram of which has a mix of art, photography, life, etc. (but mostly art!).
In fact, I recently discovered Linktree (which is a pretty basic concept, but now it's freely and easily available) where it shows all of my websites, portfolios, online shops, etc.
Everything is marketed the way I choose it.
And so going back to old deviantart posts...
well... You really have to dig deep to find that stuff. And I don't really mind it because it shows a glimpse of who I was in the past and provides an extraordinary contrast to the now.
I am a different version of myself now.
I will be a different version of myself in the future.
Thank you,

The Girl that Fell (Episodes 1-2)
New episode of The Girl that Fell [Episode 2]:youtu.be/DCrImTq8zHk 
Watch episode 1+2 in one shot- youtu.be/LABg9IRYoTc
Episode 2 had taken a while to create because I had to create all the music myself (Thanks to Jimi Titaley for his advice & support though!). I reached many stages of having to 'human up' and get more guts to push on to create the music... After about 6 weeks or so I slowly managed to complete the music, piece by piece.
I hope you guys like it!

Collaboration stories
These were all drawn on www.iScribble.net , a platform that allows multiple people to draw on the drawing at the same time. This allows for strong collaborations and completing drawings in a fast manner.
I directed all of these, and hosted the drawing board. I also do the after-editing (in photoshop) and producing. We try to keep things spontaneous by making it up on the spot, discussing ideas in the moment, minimal planning, trying to keep the projects relatively small, completing a project in a few days. Within the first 4 days, 'The Girl that Fell' project completed 13 of the 16 drawings, with a constantly updated imgur album of the images, and with the music done and organised, and most of it laid out on a video timeline in Video editing software.
A main idea behind these is when people do speed/spit paints in 30 minutes (www.facebook.com/groups/140256…) + with multiple people drawing at the same time can mean a small group of people can efficiently bang out a series of images. +A person or two working on the music.
Future plans may include, gradually bringing in more key frames, animation, dialogue, etc.
