JUST ANOTHER PSA FOR YALL SO LISTEN UP

So they just released the announcement that they are auditioning for the new be more chill cast. I am as hype as anyone else for this musical being brought back to life but the thing that ruins the hype immediately is that people are ALREADY hating the new actors (which haven’t even been chosen yet) cause they wont be the same as the og cast.

We all love the original bmc cast. Will is amazing, George is amazing. Katie, Gerard, Jake, etc. all of the original cast was so amazing but that doesn’t mean the new cast cant be just as good. The new cast hasn’t even been chosen and I’ve already seen people saying things like “no matter who they cast as Michael they are nothing compared to George” or “the new cast is gonna suck compared to the original” and its sick.

We need to treat the new cast with the same love and respect as we do with the original cast. Ofc the new cast aren’t going to be exact copies of the original actors, but the new actors are being chosen for a reason. The new cast is being chosen because the directors think they are going to do something special with the character and bring the same passion to the role as the previous actor did. It makes me sad to see so many people already hating on people we don’t even know about yet because they aren’t going to be exact copies of the original cast

The new be more chill is going to be amazing, and the whole new cast and crew are going to do everything to make it the best show ever for their audience. We need to treat the new cast with respect instead of hating them for not being exactly like the original. The new cast might not be exactly the same as before, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t good and that they don’t deserve respect.

Bottom line: when the cast for be more chill is released please treat them with respect because they are going to do everything they can to give you the best show ever

How to Read Your Textbook: SQ3R Method

Before you read, survey the chapters:

Title, headings, subheadings

Captions under pictures, charts, graphs, maps

Review questions and study guides

Read introductory and concluding paragraphs

Read summaries

Questions while you are surveying:

Turn titles, headings, and subheadings into questions

Read questions at the end of the chapters or after each subheading

Ask yourself, “what did my instructor say about this chapter or subject when it was assigned?”

Ask yourself, “what do I already know about this subject/chapter?”

When you begin to read:

Look for answers to the questions you raised in the previous steps

Answer questions at the beginning or end of chapters or study guides

Reread captions under pictures, graphs, charts, and maps

Note all the underlined, italicized, and bold printed words or phrases

Study graphic aids (maps, charts, graphs, pictures, etc.)

Reduce your reading speed for difficult passages

Stop and reread parts that are unclear or confusing

Read only a section at a time and recite after each section (how to recite below)

Recite after you’ve read a section:

Ask yourself questions out loud about what you have just read, or summarize (in your own words) what you read

Take notes from the text but write the information in your own words

Underline or highlight important points you’ve just read

Reciting: the more of your sense you use, the more likely you are to remember what you read

seeing = reading, saying = asking questions or summarizing aloud, hearing = you answering your questions aloud

Review:

Reviewing is an ongoing process

80% of information is lost within 24 hours, but if you continue to review you will remember more for class or for test day

Again I don’t take credit for this post. All of the above information is from a handout I picked up from my adviser’s office.

Random Positive Post About Animation

There are SO many animated shows premiering recently and so many more to come and so many of them look so good too!!

Like… Big City Greens, Final Space and others have already gotten quite a following, and that’s great!

Speaking of, Final Space has announced a Season 2!! How cool is that!!

The official intro for Rise of The TMNT is now on YouTube, and it looks!!! So amazing!!! The animation is incredibly spot on and energetic, I was skeptical about the show at first but I am definitely watching it once it premieres

Thundercats Roar’s intro is like that too!! It’s really fluid and well-animated, and while I know many are still skeptical about it, I say we give it a fair chance. It’s definitely the most radical change from the typical Thundercats formula so far, but that isn’t really a bad thing on its own. I’ll be watching it, that’s for sure

Netflix, CN and Disney are picking up more and more series that will have the chance to have great, deep plots, from Infinity Train to Victor and Valentino, to Twelve Forever to The Owl House to Amphibia!! It’s so exciting, seeing shows follow the footsteps of the ones before them

In fact, while I was writing this I got notified that Netflix picked up a story-driven animated show written by AtLA’s headwriter, The Dragon Prince!! Judging from the short synopsis and this poster alone, it already looks and sounds superb 

And it’s also exciting to see all these networks acknowledging that maybe, just mAYBE… if you give people what they WANT… they will… LIKE it? They’re finally growing up!!

(All of these shows look amazing so far btw, and a few of these have pilots on YouTube so go check them out if you haven’t already!!)

YouTube is doing great stuff as well!! Emara is a 5-episode (so far) mini-series made in the Emirates of a kickass superheroine

Sonic Mania Adventures (also just a 5-ep. miniseries, sadly) has rightfully gotten very popular! Go check it out if you haven’t already it’s really great

And if you think only TV (and YouTube) animation is improving, think again!! Movie animation is taking a lot of leaps recently too!

First off: SPIDER MAN: INTO THE SPIDERVERSE LOOKS SO GOOD. It’s doing something that should’ve been done a long time ago: doing unique things with 3D animation!! As much as I love Disney and Pixar, a lot of the animation in each movie feels a little…. samey, but SM:ItSV (wow that’s a terrible acronym, whatever) is taking the concept of 3D animation and making it unique again!! The two trailers released so far show so much potential for this movie it’s CRAZY. Squash and Stretch, switching between 12 and 24fps to make the fast-paced scenes look more dynamic, 2D effects blended with the 3D, and the whole thing just

looks

so

GOOD

I could homestly write an essay on how excited I am for this movie, it has the potential to reshape 3D movies as we know it. And they’re finally getting Miles Morales a movie!! I’m so proud of him look how far he’s come

AND speaking of ITSV, Sony has announced they’re making a movie on Silk (Cindy Moon), a Korean-American Spider-hero!! That’s also great!! (and it means she’ll almost definitely appear in Into The Spiderverse, yay :D)

A Super Mario movie’s coming out in 2019! I’m pretty confident on it being good, I can’t imagine Nintendo NOT making something excellent for their posterboy

And the Sonic movie now has a release date and a general idea of what the plot will be about! It sounds… a little weird, admittedly, but it actually kind of sounds like it’ll be something fun, a small diversion from the typical Sonic formula. I mean, hell, Jim Carrey might play Eggman. That will be amazing to watch no matter how the movie ends up being 

It’s a time of advancement and change for animation, and one I am incredibly excited about. 

And so should you!

I listened to Renegade when I sketched this ;P messy sketch is messy

My best friend found a bnha “Villain AU” fanfic that I actually liked. It’s written by @roguedruid and you can find it on AO3 and it’s called Hero Class Civil Warfare.

I was on the edge of my seat reading this, and the intermissions that involved the teachers were fun to read. Warning though: each student on the Villain side of the test have codenames, and at times the characters get called by that, their first names or their last names. So it can get confusing at times. But def worth the read!

As someone who changed his name just for fun when I thought I was still cis, i promise most people are ok with accepting a new name, even if you lie and say it’s a nickname. I promise. It’s really easy to just casually go “hey I wanna go by Bob now, it’s an old nickname I wanna bring back” like. Just start introducing yourself to new ppl, no one knows better. and if someone accidentally deadnames you just go haha no I go by my nickname now.

It sucks that ppl treat nicknames as more sacred than trans ppls choice names but still.
