@faerie_png for premade ones i mostly use stock sites! free ones include pexels and pixabay youtube has lots but check the footage quality and the source. also definitely won't be transparent when downloading free assets, check if they're royalty free!

@bluebellpixels do you have any suggestions on where to find them? 🙏

🧵Simple ways to turn a still image into a minimal music video🎦 While I love making full music videos, I understand that sometimes budgets don’t allow for that! So here are some techniques you can use with low experience to elevate your art into a lowkey MV! #bluebelltips

@aida_lyra i love this song!!

🥧 SINGING MARCH 🥧 {Day 27 - Waltz} I sang She Used To Be Mine from Waitress, by Sara Bareilles! This was a live take that I did at karaoke a while ago!! I lovee this song, it's so beautiful 🥺 #SingingMarch #Aidappella #VTuber

okay i hear you!! i wrote it! it got long even with only a couple of basic techniques but if people want more i will write another one c: maybe on MVs without illustrations? x.com/bluebellpixels…

with all this recent talk about MVs i'm wondering if a thread of super simple ways to elevate a still image into a lowkey/minimal MV would be helpful to people?

I hope this was helpful! Please let me know if you’d like more MV guides, or if you’d like me to upload some of my overlays/assets! c: And I'll do my best to answer any questions!

▶️Remember, when going minimal, less is more! ▶ Text is a whole other beast. For some vocasynth songs there are lyric templates! I have a couple of vertical ones on VGen/Ko-fi! ▶️If you're covering a song that needs more movement, maybe it’s time to learn to animate? 👀

🚨 TO THOSE WHO FOLLOW ME 🚨 Time to get a bit vulnerable for a change, I want to be real with you all for a second. This has been sitting in my drafts mentally for a long time. Over a year ago and ongoing, I stepped away from design content and disbanded my group chat. Went quiet on that whole side of things. And I never really explained why. The honest answer? A few things hit at once. The passion faded. Not dramatically... it was VERY slow. Design started feeling like an obligation. Something I "had" to show up for rather than something I wanted to do. The people in the community shifted, the energy changed, and somewhere in there, I stopped feeling like I had anything new to bring to the table. That's a hard thing to admit when design has been part of your identity since 2015. And I think the deeper issue was this: I was young. I didn't fully have my footing yet. I had vision, and I had drive, but I didn't have the confidence to execute at the level I was dreaming of. And underneath all of that was something harder to explain. I was/occasionally still am, spending every single day inside. No outside life, no separation between where I worked and where I existed. Just a screen, a desk, and a version of myself I slowly stopped recognizing. When your whole world is the thing you're also struggling to perform in, it gets dark quietly. The self-doubt compounds. You stop seeing your work clearly. You stop showing up the way you used to. And after long enough, you're not really sure what you even look like outside of what you produce. When you're operating from that place, everything feels harder than it should. I'm still working through it, honestly. But for the first time, I'm being intentional about building a life outside of a screen, getting outside, being around people, having experiences that have nothing to do with output. It's a small thing that isn't small at all. So I made a quiet decision. I stopped forcing it. And honestly? Stepping away confirmed it was the right call. I had put real energy into projects I genuinely believed in. Frostify Design Academy was something I wanted to build from the ground up, a real space for people to learn, grow, and develop their craft. The Wheel of Creators series was supposed to be something special for the community. Both fell through. Not because the ideas were bad, but because I wasn't in the right place mentally or professionally to carry them across the finish line. I didn't have the experience yet to navigate what it actually takes to build something that lasts. That hurt more than I let on at the time. So instead of continuing to watch things I cared about not land, I redirected. I threw myself into YouTube. Content creation, editing, channel management, and building things from a completely different angle. And honestly? It gave me something I didn't know I was missing. A new identity. A new sense of purpose. I wasn't just "the design guy" anymore. I was learning what I was capable of when I stepped outside the lane I'd always been in. The reps I got in content taught me things about storytelling, pacing, and audience that no design tutorial ever could. That chapter was necessary. I don't regret it for a second. But here's what I didn't expect... I'd miss the community so deeply. There's something specific about being around people who care about the craft the same way you do. Talking through a concept at 2am. Someone dropping a piece they've been sitting on for weeks. The energy of people actively trying to get better together. I didn't realize how much that fueled me until it was gone, even though it came with toxicity and drama at times. The group chat wasn't just a group chat. It was proof that what I was doing mattered to more than just me. Around the same time, I started building SketchSets. A digital asset marketplace for creatives. Presets, overlays, textures, and design resources. It's something I'm genuinely passionate about, not just another project to put my name on. It came from a real place, wanting to create tools that actually help people make better work. And building it has taught me something important: the confidence I was missing back then? I've been quietly finding it day by day. And lately I've been thinking a lot about how content, editing, and design aren't actually separate things. They're the same creative language spoken three different ways. A great thumbnail is storytelling. A well-edited video has pacing and visual rhythm. A strong brand is just content with a longer memory. I've spent the last year living inside all three, and I think I finally understand how they connect. Now I want to crack that code with other people. And I want to be upfront about something, I know what some of you are thinking. "He's said this before." And you're not wrong to think that. I've promised things that never happened. I've built hype around ideas that fell apart before they ever got off the ground. I'm not going to pretend that history doesn't exist, because it does, and you'd be right to hold it against me. All I can tell you is this: I'm not announcing a launch date. I'm not dropping a waitlist. I'm not asking you to get excited about something that isn't real yet. I'm just being honest that something is forming, and where I have been with my mental health and decision-making. I'm not the same person who made those promises. I'm older, I've had more failures, and weirdly, that's made me more careful, not less motivated. I'm quietly building a new space, a server, for creatives who exist in more than one world. Designers who edit. Editors who create content. Creators who care deeply about how things look. People who refuse to be put in one box. The kind of community I tried to build before, but this time I'm not rushing it out the door. If you've been here since the design days, I see you, and I'm sorry for going dark. You deserved more communication than I gave. If you're new and this resonates... You found this at exactly the right time. If you've read up until this point, THANK YOU. I rarely get vulnerable and don't like to talk about struggles, but I felt like this needed to be addressed for those concerned, and those who have reached out. If you guys have any questions for me, definitely reply and lmk, I will be 100% transparent, but other than that... More soon. 🤍
