hey lovely just so you know some of your source links aren't working due to the url change!

oh boy you are too SWEET !! thank you for informing me in such a kind manner . funny enough i just re-sent the request to tumblr support because they haven't responded in two weeks to me and i have been trying SO HARD to get any response at all because they locked down the sideblog i was using to redirect the url . tumblr says the domain is taken when i try and recreate it but when i type it in they also say it isn't there so i'm really hoping they get back to me soon so i could fix it !!

Can you stop advertising your shitty gif packs like it's a netflix series. They're too dark and grainy plus your tiktok influencer identity crisis is so grating. I have you blocked but you keep showing up on my dash wtf

Hi! I love your gif packs and I'm really tempted to try making some of my own but I have no idea how to them. Like, not even in the "I don't know how to make gifs" way, that I kinda know (although some tips on coloring and sharpening would be much appreciated), but in the "how do I pick moments for the gifs", "how do I pick where the gif starts and ends" kind of way. Would you, maybe, be willing to make a tutorial?

so i'm afraid i'm not much of a tutorial kind of gal but i CAN answer the questions you pose !! putting this under read more cause i got a lil lengthy .

coloring & sharpening

typically i stick to the same sharpening settings with an amount of 500 and a radius of 0.3 . as for coloring ( and take these tips with a grain of salt , i am no pro !! ), it honestly always depends on the show, it's lighting and the location of the scene . the biggest type i have would honestly be simply using all the tools in your arsenal , ESPECIALLY if the lighting is giving you trouble . the top four are always a must even if it's the slightest curve . hue saturation and color balance are also fantastic friends , and lately i've been using channel mixer as well for some particularly rough lighting . don't forget you could goof with coloring in levels as well , sometimes i find the best results with that too !!

tldr; for coloring you could just experiment with everything you got , see what vibes and what doesn't . i often find my favorite psds just fooling around even if it's something i don't think will work i try anyway just in case and sometimes its just what i was looking for .

how do I pick moments for the gifs

if i'm giffing for myself and/or for fun i'll typically snag the best lighting and my favorite expressions . if i'm trying to get the most i can then i'll grab every second of screentime i could .

how do I pick where the gif starts and ends

a lot of people gif differently but i personally do it by screen capturing , once i have all the footage i want then i organize it into folders . i typically cap a gif at 78 stills at the most so it doesn't go on too long , but i also watch the facial expression to see a good spot where they pause in speech or are about to change expressions . i def try to avoid letting the gif end while they are mid talking ( sometimes i goof and it happens and i am always ooping ) .

not sure if this counts as a tutorial but i hope i helped !!

Hi! Are you able to repost the gifs for Ciri from Witcher?

soooo i'm in the process of trying to fix my redirect problem ( i figured out HOW to fix it but THEN tumblr felt the need to glitch so now i'm waiting on tumblr support ) but in the meantime if you replace 'sunlethrps' with my current url of pinacolanagifs the gif page should load !!

[pinacolanagifs]

Hi! First of all, your gifs are gorgeous and I am so lucky to find them!

Secondly, do you ever plan to do any more gifpacks from The Magicians? I know that show's been over for a couple of years now but can't help but ask, just in case.

well you are TOO SWEET . thank you , i appreciate the kind words very much ! as for the magicians , while that show is deeply in my heart ( both with love and scars ) i don't have any plans in the foreseeable future of going back and giffing it unless i start using one of the fcs again .

[pinacolanagifs]

would you ever consider doing more Hope Mikaelaon gifs?

sorry lil nonnie !! i don't see myself giffing her or legacies in the future , there are some PHENOMENAL gif packs of danielle rose russell in the tags though and if you'd like i could link you .

[pinacolanagifs]

Hey! May I ask if you can make a gif pack of maddie ziegler as mia reed in the fallout?

fun SAD fact, i actually did make a good amount of maddie gifs when i originally giffed jenna ortega but in my absolute brilliance i managed to loose them all ( tumblr changed it's gif capacity at the time and i was still figuring out how to load them . i thought i had but NOPE ) . i'm afraid i don't plan to go back and gif her again at the time being , sorry nonnie .

[pinacolanagifs]
