what programs/methods do you generally use to make your stuff if you don’t like me asking? i totally love pretty much everything you post btw 🙃

I'm a hacker at heart so I don't really have any software loyalties. Everything is fair game.

I cut up pieces of pre-existing gifs or make new ones via Processing, GIMP, or internet apps. Then stretch and warp those into a collage in onlineimageeditor.com (It let's me cut and paste gifs while they're moving. Which is an interesting experience.) Then I take that and filter it in GIMP, Photomosh, Etc. Repeat until satisfied. A good 50% of the gifs i've made are cannibalizations of gifs i've made.

This way of making may be coming to an end for me. I've played it out as far as I think I can get.

Most recently I've been experimenting with traditional animation tools. Maybe I'll add that to the mix or start creating new stuff.

thanks for all the ❤️
