Important Speech (From November 18th's Note of the Week)
We are afraid to say that we cannot complete the renovation before new year. However, we are making another big announcement by doing a unique visualizer based on the new Noisysundae Visualizer 3.0 template. Of course, that means after half a year, a new sundae is coming! For now, we are pausing everything not related to the visualizer (except the HQ, if we have spare time during the work hours) for the rest of this year. If things go well, our manager is more than willing to quit his current full-time job by the end of January and work 24/7 on the renovation. He never lets us go and he really wants to make Noisysundae for a living. Content creator is his dream job and with your help, he can fulfill it! Until then, you can always come back here again on Sundays and keep track of our progress. Now, it is time we ask you to help us spread the word if you like what you ordered here!
Note of the Week
On the last week, our manager have to prepare the year-end presentation for his full-time job so he did not do so much works here. Still, we managed to make some progress. Let us go straight to our current main priority, the visualizer. We got the 10-second intro back! It is obviously incomplete. We still have to work on the default art and animate it both in this and the Noisysundae HQ as a background. We are trying to animate the icon in loop but masking the shape layers, combined with setting the pivots for each layer (for rotation and scaling. See how our icon wobbles in the jingle.), in After Effects is a lot of work, unfortunately. We are going to animate that in Blender and import the pre-rendered footage instead. Other than that, the structure of the intro composition itself is very messy at this moment. Perhaps starting over is a better choice.
Nonetheless, which version of the menu info do you prefer? The old one, which has a shaking metronome and a flashing clef, or just simple lines of text like the one in this video. We understand that putting more efforts does not always mean we will get a better result so we would like to hear your opinions, if there will be any.
"I also had some spare time during the work hours and worked a bit more on the Noisysundae HQ. Set up the Setting page which will definitely be used in the future. For now, the highlight color can be changed if you get sick of the strawberry main color. It's saved in your local storage. That means the color stay changed the next time you open the Noisysundae HQ. Additionally, I added soft shadows in some elements too to make them stand out more." — The Manager
And that was all we did last week!

* Note: This collection will not be carried onto the next news post.
Day 1
9:50 - 10:00 PM (GMT +7)
"I used to draw tribal arts much better than this. I'm going to make my way back to that point by doing this challenge, I guess." — The Manager
Day 2
9:25 - 9:35 PM (GMT +7)
"Welp, a flower. At least, the angle made this doodle looks decent." — The Manager
Day 3
11:10 - 11:20 PM (GMT +7)
"Safe! Almost missed the train today lol. Now that I think about it, is 10 minutes too short to make an art? Well, I don't want to make just a doodle anymore. I used to spent an hour before a collage class drawing an epic tribal art too. Perhaps because I always do my drawings slow." — The Manager
Day 4
8:13 - 8:23 PM (GMT +7)
"Starting to get the hang of it. Felt more comfortable adding the lines now. When I do a tribal art, I start with a thick curve, then draw the rest out of it. My doodles are mostly abstract because they aren't based on any real world object." — The Manager
Day 5
8:06 - 8:16 PM (GMT +7)
"Well, managed to make today's doodle into something real. Otherwise pretty messed up, this one." — The Manager
Day 6
11:33 - 11:43 PM (GMT +7)
"Drew this before bed. I was too tired yesterday so I slept (or rather, passed out) right after. Some countries are still before midnight now anyway." — The Manager
Day 7
6:17 - 6:27 PM (GMT +7)
"Did this after dinner and before editing the headers. I was satisfied with this halfway through and decided to play it safe, added double curves untill the time was up." — The Manager
Day 8
8:18 - 8:28 PM (GMT +7)
"Stencil curves here and there." — The Manager
Day 9
9:24 - 9:34 AM (GMT +7)
"Well, it looks just like..." — The Manager
Day 10
8:52 - 9:02 PM (GMT +7)
"It seems I bent the curves too much this time. Should've made the tail smaller but not too small or it'll be like the yesterday's doodle." — The Manager
Day 11
7:53 - 8:03 AM (GMT +7)
"Another doodle to start my day." — The Manager
Day 12
7:56 - 8:06 AM (GMT +7)
"I got an idea! Since I wanna keep the 10 minute rule for the rest of the month but also wanna make big creations, I'll continue drawing this thing tomorrow." — The Manager
Day 13
11:33 - 11:43 PM (GMT +7)
"I think this thing needs tail but it's already 10 minutes for today. Gonna do it tomorrow. Started this late because I was doing something big, though." — The Manager
Day 14
10:16 - 10:26 PM (GMT +7)
"It has no legs! I'm doing them tomorr- *Slapped by Batman*" — The Manager
Day 15
5:18 - 5:28 PM (GMT +7)
"Well, looks like Facebook tried to cut down my reach now that I post more frequently. I guess I'll keep the same way of posting (post only when I release something) after the Inktober is over." — The Manager
Day 16
8:52 - 9:02 PM (GMT +7)
"Drew this right after I arrived home despite of my exhaustion. Got off the work at 5:30 PM, walked one and a half kilometers (about a mile) only to wait for 45 minutes to catch a bus...standing in it for the next couple of hours, all because a construction company closed two lanes of an already busy road and guess what, they close four of them towards an intersection! Good thing I drank enough water to get through this. *ranting ends here*" — The Manager
Day 17
11:05 - 11:15 PM (GMT +7)
"Today, I changed the way back from the office only to arrive home at the same time as yesterday. Can't I have a little more time between work days?" — The Manager
Day 18
9:46 - 9:56 PM (GMT +7)
"Too tired to make a post everyday now. I can only draw this, write something, and go get a 6-hour sleep." — The Manager
Day 19
10:03 - 10:13 PM (GMT +7)
"Finally, Friday nearly ends. I'm having a whole next week off! Still going to work on Noisysundae, though." — The Manager
Day 20
1:52 - 2:02 PM (GMT +7)
"It's cloudy today so I feel like drawing Pandora's Box." — The Manager
Day 21
10:00 - 10:10 PM (GMT +7)
"This is the last doodle I draw for Inktober 2018. For the remaining 10 days, I'm going to make a page full of tribal arts in 100 minutes!" — The Manager
Day 22
10:12 - 10:22 PM (GMT +7)
"And it begins, the 100 minute Inktober - First 10 Minutes!" — The Manager
Day 23
9:12 - 9:22 PM (GMT +7)
"Now that I think about it, I wasted many pages by drawing just one doodle per page. Should've done big ones with a few attempts (days) combined, like what I'm doing now." — The Manager
Day 24
8:52 - 9:02 PM (GMT +7)
"Now, I'm trying to make something out of this. This one is not gonna be an abstract art anymore." — The Manager
Day 25
10:11 - 10:21 PM (GMT +7)
"Today's my younger sister's commencement day. I'm a bit tired but I'm drawing this anyway. Can you see something now?" — The Manager
Day 26
8:38 - 8:48 PM (GMT +7)
"A demon has awakened!" — The Manager
Day 27
7:03 - 7:13 PM (GMT +7)
"Filled the bottom, didn't work as expected." — The Manager
Day 28
8:46 - 8:56 PM (GMT +7)
"Tried to draw a wing but the time was up. I'll try to complete it and also make the bottom end look smoother within the remaining 3 days." — The Manager
Day 29
10:38 - 10:48 PM (GMT +7)
"After a week off, this is the first time I really feel like the way back home is trying to kill me. The subway construction sites block even more roads than before. Seriously thinking about quitting the job at this point. I wish I could make a steady income off Noisysundae right now." — The Manager
Day 30
8:15 - 8:25 PM (GMT +7)
"Filled out the bottom and it really looks finished for me. I'm trying to do something with the wing tomorrow, in the remaining 10 minutes." — The Manager
Day 31
8:18 - 8:28 PM (GMT +7)
"What is this? Handwriting for ants? It's a demon anyway so...happy Halloween I guess." — The Manager
