Special Effects - Warp zone (Process)

1st off i start with storyboards getting the initial idea down. I'm not one to use scrips, i take lots of notes but i just work better with pictures.

After the story boards i go out and film. When filming the initial idea change a bit, mainly because characters needed to be more fleshed out and some changes had to be done to suit the location.

This was my 1st ever time using after effects and im rather proud of what i ended up with. I have grown to love after effects and look into using it a lot more in the future.

Test film - I do this to give me an idea on how everything looks and flows. This also allows me to have friends see if anything needs to be changed.

I then get to work on making the final. I released i had to re-dub the voices but after watching it with some music i released the film worked a lot better without the speech. I also touched up and added a few more effects.

I left it on a cliff hanger as i really liked this concept and felt i could carry on the story and make my own mini series out of it.

Ask better questions

Stop asking yourself 'why is my life so bad?', 'Why does no one like me?' 'Why do I fail at everything?' and focusing on all the crap, Instead ask yourself 'How can I make my life better?' 'What can I do to be more attractive?' 'What are some smaller tasks I can easily win at?' these types of questions will allow you to think of solutions. Focusing on what you can do to improve and actively moving towards a better future (even if it's slow) will lead to a much happier and more meaningful life. Try it for a few days and notice how you feel after answering these questions.

The Rocco Effect - Fuck Off!

Do not allow negative thoughts to enter your mind for they are the weeds that strangle confidence. - Bruce Lee How often do you have negative thoughts? I'm guessing more often than you'd like. We wouldn't let others talk to us that way, so why do we allow ourselves? Next time you notice one of these thought reply with 'Fuck off!' and replace it with the opposite though Eg. I'm stupid - Fuck off! - I'm a genius. Both are untrue, but one leads to you feeling rubbish and one leads to you feeling good. Why would you choose to feel rubbish when it's just as easy to feel great? Comic Task 1. Notice your thoughts 2. Tell bad thoughts to 'Fuck off!' 3. Replace thought with the opposite 4. Start feeling great again Journal questions 1. What thoughts have you told to 'Fuck off!'? 2. What have you replaced them with? 3. How do these new thoughts make you feel?
