Sorry if this is an invasive question, but how do you motivate yourself to draw semi-regularly?

I've been trying to draw more often, and I want to work on a personal for-fun animatic, but despite that I can't get myself to actually do it.

Maybe it's an ADHD problem (which I have), but I noticed you once managed to get out a sketch in spite of university kicking your ass, and I wanted to know if there's a...method, or something, I could learn to help get myself to draw consistently.

Thank you.

Huh?

On a more serious answer, I don't really have any specific method. I usually get these "Flow" days where I just wanna draw a lot, especially if there's some piece of media i'm obsessing over and wanting to draw, but it's all very sporadic.

As for actually managing a consistent flow of practice, honestly what's helped me the most currently was assisting to an art/comics class. Having a space where I "force" myself to draw at least 3 hours a week helps keep things flowing for me, and also helps me improve (if I like how my art comes out, there's a bigger chance I'll keep drawing)

Also consider there's a big difference between doodling a quick 5-10 minute sketch and working on a whole Animatic (which is itself made out of at least 10+ consecutive drawings depending on length). Tackling animatics is an entirely different beast, one I haven't been able to manage yet lol.

For an animatic, I think you should probably divide your work into sections. If you're starting on an animatic, try thumbnailing it first! You draw a very small, low quality skribble for each important "frame" you've planned, so you can see what works and what doesn't. Storyboarding is a good way to start something like that!

Most important though, I think you should consider duration: Is this your very first animatic? If so, I'd recommend starting with a very short length, something between 10-30 seconds, to get the hang of it first. If it's a longer project, try focusing on the part you're more interested in seeing!

Ultimately, this is meant to be fun! So don't worry too much about the result!
