"Try drawing grilled sweetfish" has been uploaded.

The day before yesterday, I uploaded the video of "grilled sweetfish" that I wrote about in this column to YouTube.。Recently、Channel views are drastically decreasing。1From the end of the month to February, it accelerates rapidly.、1It has decreased to 1/10 within a month.。I don't really know why、It may be due to the frequency of posting。

until just before that、I don't know why, but the number of views was increasing every day.、A drastic change of rapid rise and fall。The likely cause is ``posting frequency.''。Many YouTubers agree that they should upload at least one video a week.。“If we don’t do that, it will decline drastically.”、Maybe I'm just experiencing it for myself.。

Trying to improve the content of the video even a little、getting longer、and time consuming。on the other hand、The longer the video, the easier it will be.。1If you want to summarize the time recording into 50 minutes、Almost no editing required、If you cut it to 5 minutes、You end up spending a tremendous amount of time choosing which parts to cut out.。It became necessary to compensate for the parts that were cut out in some way.、New photos and compositions may be required.。That's how you keep it short、If you try to deepen the content、(With my current ability) I definitely can't finish it in a week.。That's how it is、Organize content、I couldn't upload it for over 3 weeks because I tried to make it dense (not only that)。It took more than 2 weeks before that.。That's the only reason I can think of。The content may not meet the audience's needs.、I don't know that myself。

So、Try your best this time、1I made it within a week。Recording time is approximately 1 hour 25 minutes。I summarized it in 10 minutes and 46 seconds.。A few more、1Try to aim for one per week.。I don't know if the frequency is the only reason for the sharp decline, but、It may be possible to see the state of one factor for the time being.。

The ordinary “Apple Kingdom”

Apple-Crossing the Sea　S.K.I.S.

I'm about to start production for the Shinshunkai (June/Kasukabe) exhibition.。Even though the exhibition is held in June, the deadline for photos for the catalog is the beginning of April.、3The work must be completed within the month.。This is Skeith (idea sketch)。I think I'll go like this this year。Added CG to the work exhibited at Ginza last fall.。

Computers are really convenient。This kind of Squis also、With just a few more touches, you can create a complete image.。All that remains is to “realize” it using actual materials.。But、The idea of ​​``thinking with your hands'' is a little different from that of a computer.、No, not at all。In the first place, the path we are walking on is different.。

I see people walking from right to left across the grass from the side.。If there is a parallel path、as far as seen from the side、I can't tell which way I'm walking。As I draw, I get rid of tension from my body。Even if the direction of the face of the person walking is the same from right to left、The road is gradually slipping away。The destination is different。That's the difference between hand-drawn and CG、I always feel that、(For some reason) I'm trying to get used to CG.。I don't know if it's good or bad for me。It's probably a gamble called "intuition"。

here 2，3This is the style of this year's painting.。Unusually (for the first time?) for me, I have a fixed image.。decades ago、Various styles、Made with various materials。What I think now is、No matter what picture you draw, as long as you are there, it's fine.、This person is building his "own" snowboard "road"。Even if it is unique、Even if it's ordinary、This is just a “carefree” “evaluation” from the outside perspective.。Even if it is called “ordinary”、For me, I don't have time to worry about the label "mediocre."。

Try drawing “grilled sweetfish”

"Grilled sweetfish"Felt pen + pencil with jagged teeth

easily available to anyone、I wonder if there is a suitable subject for felt-tip pens?、I looked around at supermarkets, but I couldn't find anything suitable.。I had no choice but to buy ``dried Japanese sardines''.、3I placed about a dozen on a plate.。“Sardines?” I thought it was a really cool motif.、As soon as I picked up the pencil, I remembered - "There must be sweetfish in the freezer!"。

The big sweetfish I received from Mr. H at the end of the day.、まだ何匹か残っていたはず。there was、there was。A little bit of frost、I placed it on a paint plate.。-That's fine.。Although it may be a bit far from being “easy” for anyone.、Compared to handling and showing bluefin tuna,、It would fall into the category of “anyone”.。Raw sweetfish would have been fine too.、How to draw with a felt-tip pen、Smooth、Grindier than slimy、I thought the tick-tack one would stand out in contrast to the pencil.。

For the time being、Like the photo。The contrast between pencils and felt-tip pens is certainly vivid.。Ayu has a strong presence。But、Maybe it's because I'm not used to this kind of comparison.、I can't help but feel a little uncomfortable.。bimyo。As a picture、Pencil “draws too much”。Should I draw more smoothly?、(This is drawn with B and H) It is thin at about 2H、It would have been better to draw it more closely。disappointing。But I can't help what I drew.。Let's do our best next time。

Of course this is the side dish for dinner.。The taste of heartless painting failure is added.、It had a bland taste.。*The production process for “Yaki Ayu” will be released on YouTube later.、Currently being edited。
