mind explaining how you make your edits?

Hmmm... this is hard because I don’t really know exactly how to explain, each edit it’s different from each other. But generally:

1. I choose a topic

2. Decide if I will use gifs or just pictures

3. Select videos or pictures (ps: this takes time)

4. Decide the size and format I will use (square, horizontal, six panels...)

5. Test colors (like really test because I never have a great idea of colors)

6. Randomly change things; and that’s why I can’t explain properly the edit process because I usually have no idea what I am doing, things just started showing up in my mind randomly while I’m altering random stuff in the picture or applying random textures. So here I can’t really be specific.

7. Add text with the same fonts I always use even though I promise to myself I would try new ones!

This is not helpful at all anon, but each edit is different from each other and I do a wild range of types of edits that goes from moodboard to gifsets and I also use a wild range of colors so it’s hard to have a pattern of editing here.

if it isn't too much trouble, and you have the time, would you consider doing an edit tutorial?

Hi, Anon!! So, it would need to be a very specific thing and not a WHOLE edit process because my pannel are usually pretty different from each other and therefore I use different stuff and “abilities” for each one of them. I actually have one I need to make that you just reminded me of 😂😂😂😂 so you will probably see one soon I guess

How do u look for the perfect pictures and models and stuff for ur edits? Like they are so on spot, am impressed. It's okay if u dont wanna share, hehe

Hello!! Not that easy of a question to answer. I usually start on Pinterest and honestly, white characters are easy to find there. There is a great range of models from different countries and hairstyles we can find some of the phoshoots on Pinterest. 

When it comes to POC it’s not that easy, because it’s not only about the skin tone, it’s also about their ethnicity and heritage. So when you find the model or actor you still need to check their nationality and heritage to see if they apply to the character you are editing. So it takes a lot more time than usual. I also check some model agencies website! Hope I’ve helped!

here is the interview where Jess Brownell mentions Sophie, it’s at the end of the article. she also talks about genderbending Fran’s character and more on Benedict’s fluidity.

not gonna lie after all the shit jess has pulled im 80% sure they'll give a mulan arc to benophie. which im so not here for because a) they're basically changing sophie's story to fit benedict (hence the "exploring his fluidity" bit b) they went out of their way to give penelope cinderella aspects when that's sophie's trope and c) casting an east asian actress and turning a cinderella story into mulan is weird and gives racism

TBH I think I've seen Mulan maybe once when I was a kid. So, I'm not super familiar with the story. But it wouldn't surprise me if they did something like that. I could see that with like the ball maybe, but it wouldn't work for her to pretend to be a man once she gets to Number 5. She's a lady's maid not a footman. They'd have to do it for the ball alone then and then Benedict's going to be super pissed, like probably more than book!Benedict for being lied to. And then I guess the question becomes on whether or not why Sophie is dressing as a man. Is it just because that was the readily available disguise she has or is it because she's nonbinary or something? And I DO NOT trust Jess or Netflix to give that story any form of justice without it being offensive to others. So, IDK. I'm still just confused on why Simon and Daphne get their book adaptation. Kate and Anthony get theirs (will some pretty big changes), But the other book couples are just kind of up in the air and free to just be rewritten. That's not fair.

IDK. I'm honestly trying to put it all from my mind for a little while because it will literally bother me for 2 years lol
