I made this music video with TVPaint:
Almost a year in the making, this 7-minute animation blends together a number of musical and artistic genres.
The story is simple: A man free dives into a sea of crazy, hallucinogenic imagery. The visuals become more intense and weird the deeper he goes!
I'm still learning a lot of techniques from this awesome, highly versatile software.

Wow, that's pretty cool !
Are you also the composer (for the music, I mean) ?

Hey Micah! Gorgeous work. I'm really digging the mixed media stuff -- the backgrounds look like they're watercolor? And some of the animation also looked like colored pencil or chalk. Can you talk about your process for making this video?
Re: Psychedelic Animation Created With TVPaint
^ Second that. I'm also interested in your process... Especially love the lighting in parts, and the "smoky jellyfish" ~4:15... Good stuff.
