Anime Impact Frames - Product and Why

Posted by Marius Oberholster on Wednesday, January 19, 2022, In : General 
Hey all!

Recently, Marquis Miller messaged me on Facebook with a suggestion for my CGT - Impact Frames!

Initially, I wasn't too excited about it, until I actually got into it! It was such a challenge. I'm starting to see a trend here - what I'm not too excited to get into, turns out to be the most useful, LOL!! The last time this happened, I created the NPR shaders, based on a lot of work between myself and Wasili Novratidis. I like to give credit where it's due.

Anyway, moving on, I started wor...

Throwback To The Future

Posted by Marius Oberholster on Wednesday, December 15, 2021, In : General 
Hey all!

Throwbacks are not something I typically do, but with a very productive year, I think it's good to think on what was and what can be - a throwback to the future, hehe. I'd like to invite you to take a moment, and just consider everything you got done and that happened over the past year - and I mean the whole lot and consider what your plans/hopes/aspirations are.

Now, consider how many obstacles there were and how much you persevered and guess what - you're still here!

So, since this i...

"OH NO, HE'S GONNA DO ANIME REVIEWS NOW!!!!! NNNNOOOOOOoooooo.........."
No, no I'm not planning on doing that at all, BUT, this is one that I think needs some perspective.

SPOILERS!!!!!

I've read a few reviews about it before it ever surfaced here in South Africa, btw, huge thank you Netflix - I really appreciate getting to see it! No, that's totally serious, not being sarcastic at all.

The reviews were overwhelmingly negative and I was quite taken aback...

New Tutorial - For Anime Adoration Sparks

Posted by Marius Oberholster on Thursday, March 25, 2021, In : Tutorials 
Hey all!

It was so good to be able to tackle a new tutorial again! I hope I get to make more going forward. I'm still on another much bigger video, but I'm struggling to put together footage for it. May just pull pixabay in for it, lol.

Anyhow, NEW TUTORIAL!

Adoration Sparks/Sparkles, are nothing new to anime, but not something that is often captured. As with other anime visuals, it's the characters that matter and the visual language simply tells us more about the characters on-screen, their re...

IndySpotlight

Posted by Marius Oberholster on Wednesday, November 25, 2015, In : News 
Hey all!

There is a website out there that markets independent (aka, unsigned) Christian Artists of various trades in multi-media. It's called IndySpotlight. The lady who is the steward thereof, posted in Christian Animators (a facebook group) on Sunday about this website, but I basically glanced over it. Later that night, I felt GOD wanted me to share this video on that same group:



So I did, under internal protest, because I hate, for lack of better term, to shove my work down people's throats...
