⭐HARNESS THE POWER OF TIME⭐

As an animator and storyteller your number one enemy is time.

However, time can also be your ally. You need time on your side to actually create something badass, the problem is- that takes time.

So you have time to create but your losing time to focus on other things in the process or to build your following, channel, etc... It's a double edge sword. Your fans, followers, and your creative juices all want you to dump this massive electrified animation to the world. But you need time to create and need to save time where it counts.

Here's my cutthroat, no-bullshit list of ways to make time your ally while still growing a following even though animation takes forever.

These are the same strategies top creators use when their main projects take months.

🔥 1. Show Progress, Not Just Finished Work

People don't need full episodes, they need breadcrumbs. Drop things like the below:
• 3-8 second WIPs
• Rough passes
• Timing tests
• Effects previews
• Keyframes before/after
• Sprite sheets
• Color grading tests

Fans love the process more than the product

🔥 2. Build a "Production Diary" Brand

Post WHAT you're doing, WHY it matters, and HOW you're improving. You become the journey, not just the final result. During Goku Versus Z, in my old Discord server I would post updates in a specific channel documenting the journey.

🔥 3. "Micro-Content Recycling"

Every shot can produce 5+ posts:
• A still frame
• A zoomed crop
• A breakdown
• A story question "Should I add lightning here?"
• A before/after comparison

🔥 4. Teach While You Build

People love creators who explain. Post stuff like:
• Tips
• Tricks
• Short breakdowns
• Animation philosophy
• How you think
• What not to do
• Teaching = authority = growth

🔥 5. Ask Your Audience Micro-Decisions

Fans LOVE being part of creation. Back when I did Evil Goku vs. Majin Buu I asked fans to vote to decide if Majin Buu was a girl or a boy. Turns out we got the best of both worlds. Ask things like:

“Which color aura looks better?”
“Should this punch be faster or heavier?”
“Version A or B?”

This boosts engagement and makes people feel invested.

🔥 6. Don't Post Only Finished Masterpieces

Your audience will forget you exist. Consistency > perfection. Post something every 1-3 days.

🔥 7. Create "Evergreen Posts"

These always work and aren’t tied to specific progress:
• Hot takes about animation
• Relatable animator struggles
• Motivational quotes tailored to creators
• Nostalgia posts (DBZ, old anime, etc...)
• Rage bait/over the top honest takes if you can handle backlash
• Your thoughts on art trends
• Behind the scenes tech setups

These fill the gaps when you’re not producing visuals.

🔥 8. Build “Universe Lore Drip” Posts

Even without animating, drop things like:
• Character bios
• Villain philosophies
• Quotes
• Power explanations
• Teasers
• Polls (specifically animated GIF polls)
• Story snippets

This keeps fans emotionally hooked.

🔥 9. Accept This Truth:
• Your job isn’t just animating
• Your job is documenting the path to animation

Creators who master both explode. People want the journey, not just the result.

By doing all of this consistently you are biding time to work on animating- while also growing/building hype around said project. I can speak to most of the majority of the things posted here, as at some point in the past I have done them.

Goodluck with your projects 👊
