Being Struck with Inspiration


Inspiration can come to someone at anytime and anywhere. This project in particular was inspired by an iconic moment from a Super Smash Bros. Invitational Tournament in 2014. As the game itself launched, it was highly anticipated by fans (myself included) to be involved.

The picture above is the thumbnail of an animation I made a while ago. The intention was to make the character an announcer/host with robust and vigor. Needless to say, the hair is pretty spot on for that.

Viral moments only come when the unintentional is executed or when something truly amazing happens. This is good example of sharing both of those traits. Making animations to accommodate for a voice over is rather common on the internet these days; podcasts, let's play's, shows, you name it.

The hype from this moment makes the motivation skyrocket and the will to make something because of that. Not only did I aspire to make some creative but I made it having fun wholeheartedly throughout the whole process. We conjure countless ideas as artists, yet there are very few that we find fun and even though it may not be what we really wanted, it's still fun, is it not?
