Hi, sorry but I'm so confused!! your /post/161289519377 it happened in s03? I have no memories of that! And who is the clone with Helena? ><

nope, don’t worry, it hasn’t happened yet! I accidentally tagged it as season 3 instead of season 5, but I just went back and fixed it. it’s an exclusive first look at the new season, which you can watch here. :)

Hi :)) Just wanted to say I absolutely love your themes they are gorgeous and I admire the skills you must have to do these kinds of effects (like in your thunderstorm theme)! I also wanted to ask what kind of french songs you listened to because I saw that in your bio and I'm french so :}

Hi! Aww thank you so much, that’s really sweet! I always try to learn something new with each theme so this time I wanted to challenge myself to do some animation with javascript and I’m so glad you liked it! 

I love French pop and rap, I spent a summer in Arles (2014) and Sur Ma Route by Black M was the only thing on the radio so I got really into his music (his latest album omg). I also really like The Shin Sekai and BB Brunes, and I have a whole playlist of random french music that I love to listen to for practice :) Do you have any recommendations?

Week 2

I’m quite late with this blog this week. Week three starts tomorrow. I need to work on my time management skills! 

This past week has been another interesting one. I’m back into the swing of things now and classes are back to normal. I’ve really enjoyed our new writing workshops with Adam and Hannah from the Manchester based theatre company ‘Box of Tricks’. We’ve mainly worked with Adam this week on monologue plays and non-linear plays. Every bit of information he’s told us has been so valuable and his processes when breaking scripts down is so intriguing. We also got to work with the playwright Chris Hoyle on Friday. In his workshop we began writing our own short plays using his small techniques, I’ve always wanted to try my hand at writing so I found this really useful stuff to know. I’ve now started to push myself to write more and hopefully, someday, i’ll finish writing my own play.

We also had the chance to have a movement workshop with one of our movement teachers turned vice-principal. That was incredible! We looked at Laban again which, funnily enough, is the thing that prompted me to start this blog in the first place. My problem with Laban was that I began to get in my head about how the effort would be ‘played’ in a sense. Within this workshop, I had a moment of realisation. I realised and remembered that the Laban effort is an inner feeling. If I feel something from that effort on the inside, ripples of that inner emotion with show on the surface and my movements will come from that feeling instead of trying to ‘play’ the effort. That was badly explained but you should be able to get what I mean. Basically, the inside affects the outside.

I’ve also begun reading ‘The Artists Way’ to try and learn how I can further my creativity. I’m excited to see what happens as I go on that journey and i’ll do my best to log it on here as best as possible. My only problem is that i’m bad at picking books back up after first reading them but i’ll endeavour with this one! 

On Friday I had the fortune of working with my lovely friend Patrick Price on a TV scene in our acting for camera class. I was quite happy with the work i’d put into that scene and I felt a shift between my attitude to work in first year and my attitude to work in second year. With this scene, I endeavoured to make choices and be bold with them whilst staying true to the script. It was a nice little scene and I think we both played it well. I’m excited to see the rushes now!

In terms of challenges i’ve faced this week, I can’t really think of any. Maybe just keeping focus at times and remembering that everybody is on their own journeys and everybody’s at different points on that journey. 

It’s been a good week. I’m excited to see what week three brings!

Well I'm going to be basic af : (for the character thingy) can you do main leda clones? :)) If you can't do them all I'd love to know Sarah and Cosima

I’m gonna do Cosima!general opinion: fall in a hole and die | don’t like them | eh | they’re fine I guess | like them! | love them | actual love of my life hotness level: get away from me | meh | neutral | theoretically hot but not my type | pretty hot | gorgeous! | 10/10 would banghogwarts house: gryffindor | slytherin | ravenclaw | hufflepuffbest quality: The ability to think logically and to quickly assess her situation no matter how hard it is.worst quality: She lets her feelings cloud her mind.ship them with: Delphiiine and Shaybrotp them with: Felix, Scott, Kira, Charlotte (Cosima’s literally bros with everyone)needs to stay away from: just anyone who could possibly hurt hermisc. thoughts: I love Cosima so much but probably not as much as the others do. It’s probably a kind of an unpopular opinion.

Hi Chloe :) I was wondering if you could teach me/us how to do that slide effect when changing page you have on your current theme? Thanks a lot and I totally understand if you want to keep this original trick

it’s too complex for people who have 0 script knowledge (not necessarily you) and i don’t want to have to explain it to people who literally know nothing about code, can’t be bothered learning, but still want to reap the benefits. 

plus it won’t work with every theme and people will expect it to
