Hi, ah!

Hi.

Part of the studio.

Hey guys, welcome to Proko.

My name is Stan Prokopenko.

This is Aaron Blaise.

Hey, mate.

And we're here in his studio in Florida.

Yep, the land.

Scared to see.

Anyway, we're gonna be walking around his studio.

He's gonna pull out some sketchbooks and some other cool stuff.

Yeah, everybody asks me about my studio and what's look like

and it's actually really small

i have a very small room off the side of my house i keep everything packed really tight in here

and actually i cleaned up pretty good for you

so it's usually chaotic you got a haircut

i did get a haircut yeah i actually i kept my hair long for 25 years

and i'd cut it every three years and donate it and over 25 years i donated eight feet of hair

Well, this is the demo we've been recording.

We did record the whole thing, the whole two -day process, including the materials.

And he does a lion anatomy demo, talking about the motion and all the forms of the lion.

Brogan .com slash blaze, you can pre -order now.

It's amazing.

Oh, thanks.

Yeah, this is, you know, I love, my favorite medium is drawing.

I just, I love to paint.

I love to animate.

I love all that.

I have a big love of charcoal.

And so lately I've kind of pushed painting aside other than my watercolors,

but I've kind of pushed painting aside and I've just been doing these really big charcoal drawings and I like, you know,

getting right in the face of big cats and they're big

and dramatic and they're fun to create the textures and all that kind of stuff.

So this is one that you can see all the little cat prints on it

because I had it sitting on my easel and the cat was getting up and putting her paws on it,

but it's a cat with cat prints.

So there you go.

But this is one I did for a demo on a live stream, a bison that I had seen in Yellowstone.

That was a lot of fun.

That took a lot of graphite, or not graphite, but charcoal.

I got one right here.

Oh yeah.

Let's trade places.

So that's a big leopard.

This was a wild leopard that I photographed in Kenya.

It looks like you're right under it.

Yeah.

Like, did you cheat the perspective a little bit?

or no that's I because he the way he was leaning back

and looking up

and I happened to be in the Land Rover sitting back quite a ways I just had enough distance

that I didn't have to look down on him

that's my favorite one yeah

it took me the longest as well how long was this one

that's like three days three days of drawing three days at

what like five hours five hours a day cool yeah

I can't go longer than five hours some people can I can't my brain gets turned to mush.

Mushy, mushy.

This one I did, I just wanted to do something a little more experimental.

I just let the, with the charcoal and creating the grass,

I just used my eraser and just lightly pulled out all the grass with my eraser.

Excuse me while I pull this out.

That's one of the things I don't do is spray fix any of my drawings because it changes the way they look.

And so I try to get them under glass as fast as possible.

This is a lioness that I photographed in Kenya as well.

It was on the same trip, actually, as the leopard.

But this was a lot of fun to draw.

I just love doing big drawings.

Yeah, then one more.

I did this tiger.

I've got a whole bunch of them.

And I've sold quite a few of these, but this is a tiger done in charcoal.

Same thing.

I photographed this tiger, actually, in Sarasota, Florida.

It was at a big cat rescue place, and I just thought it was a beautiful animal.

If I'm not animating or not doing digital art or not doing watercolor, I'm doing these big charcoals.

I love doing big charcoals.

I've been experimenting on wood.

I just wanted to see how charcoal and the pencil would go on that.

And I did this one.

I did spray and it changed everything and I had to go back over it.

I want to get a big four by eight sheet

and just do a big charcoal drawing on this big four foot by eight foot sheet.

Do it on a big piece of plywood.

I've got stuff all over the place in here just lying around.

Lying around.

Go ahead and lead the way.

Let's see.

The rest of your.

My wolf pelt.

I got a wolf skin right here.

This is from, there's a guy that I know up in Montana who raises wolves he's got exotic animals, he's got bears,

he's got all kinds of stuff and he's been raising them for years

and so every once in a

while one of the wolves in his pack will pass away from natural causes old age

and rather than just waste it he'll use the pelt for educational purposes

and that sort of thing and so I was up there I was just up there over the winter, but I was there last summer,

and he gave that to me.

100

So that was really cool.

101

Yeah.

102

So I use it for reference.

103

I've done a couple of wolf paintings since then, and that really comes in handy.

104

And so the animal, you know, he's continuing to give even after he's gone.

105

This is my art bag.

106

I've got a couple of them, and they're from Lilo Rosh.

107

They're a couple in India that make these bags handmade made

108

and every bag is custom you can tell them what you want

109

and they will create it for you this one's jam -packed

110

but it's got holds all of my pens and pencils

111

and whatnot and uh

112

and then inside here I've got you know

113

I've got my pallets right here I've got my watercolor block

114

I've got everything in here then we've got another pocket on the back that takes even more stuff so I've got

115

My watercolors in here.

116

I've got my jars of water.

117

You know, it just, it holds everything.

118

So I was just in Hawaii.

119

I brought it with me to Hawaii, but these bags have been with me all over the world.

120

You know, with our business, we do a lot of lecturing.

121

And so we've hit 10 countries in the last year, just going around and lecturing.

122

And I bring this with me everywhere I go and

123

so I got one of the things

124

I like to do I see you yeah well

125

I wanted to show this on your Instagram yes see one of the things

126

I like to do is I like to

127

when I go to the zoo in this case I was at a farm

128

and so I like to draw big I bring out like a China marker

129

and when I'm drawing the animals I like to sit down

130

and just draw really big and so I wanted something that I could put my

131

my big newsprint pads into and so 18 by 24 18 by 24

132

and so I I asked them to make me a bag like this

133

but blow it up blow it up huge

134

you can see how I can you know I can smuggle a child in here

135

it's just huge and

136

so what's great about it though is it takes these newsprint pads just perfectly I gotta stretch it out here

137

but it goes in but there you go

138

so it sits in there perfectly it fits perfect and

139

so I can go out to the zoo

140

and bring my all my drawing materials and my newsprint

141

and everything else all in one bag do you put it on a board

142

or something yeah I have a board too okay yeah

143

it fits in there yep okay there it is like even

144

if I'm doing like character drawings I like to draw big

145

and on newsprint sometimes I would do this at disney like these are some just quick sketches

146

i was doing of uh a real cougar this was a cat

147

that was a florida panther

148

but you know these are that's that's from imagination though right yeah that's from imagination

149

so i like to sit down and just do these big sketches um

150

of characters and this is what i would do at disney hey these are brother bear yeah yeah nice

151

and this this is a little demonstration I did I'm just you know using the eraser method

152

these characters I've got piles and piles of these if you guys don't know Aaron directed

153

Brother Bear and he animated for Lion King Aladdin I did like in Aladdin

154

and beating the beast and pocahontas

155

and mulan nice yeah are those characters from no these are things

156

i just did in the last couple years i was drawing for my grandkids

157

and yeah my grandkids love coming over because we all draw together

158

and they're still at the age where they love to draw so

159

either kid grows out of it

160

or they don't like we you're still at the age where you look exactly

161

i know i just never grew out of it what have i got oh this is kind of cool

162

obviously i don't keep things in order around here

163

it's a sketchbook yeah no this isn't a sketchbook these are these are some photos

164

this is from one of my last trips to alaska

165

so these are wild grizzlies that i photographed up in alaska and uh just beautiful beautiful animals

166

this grizzly walked right past me she was as close as you are to me

167

and walked right past me with this fish.

168

And I had everything, it took everything in my body not to run away.

169

Because I had a ranger with me, he says, don't run, don't run, don't run.

170

And she walked right past me.

171

I recently did a digital painting of this guy right here.

172

But it's just a beautiful, I love the way the light was hitting on this far mountain.

173

It was really cool.

174

I'm going to show you what I'm going to do.

175

these are dull sheep these are white rams

176

and you can see them from the valley floors

177

and they're way way way up the mountains they're really interesting

178

because you can see them from the ground from the valley

179

and you can hike up to them this guy

180

we hiked up to is a hard hike they just a little white dot up there

181

and as long as you stay below them

182

you can get as close as you want I was only like 15 20 feet away from this guy

183

but as soon as you get above them you've got the advantage

184

and they get spooked and they take off yeah

185

so as long as you stay below they they're fine yeah like here

186

I was up I was shooting with a long lens

187

and he kept looking at me because I was way up above him

188

and he was he didn't like me up there at all and moose

189

and caribou this is all in Denali National Park right in central Alaska

190

it's one of my favorite favorite places in the world they call it the Serengeti of the north

191

because there's so much wildlife there do you still go on these trips for photographing

192

and just seeing wildlife I do it for workshops no

193

it's for myself I usually on these trips

194

I mostly do for myself matter of fact I'm going actually this the next one's gonna be with a group

195

but we're in October there's a group of artists we're going to get back to Kenya

196

and we're gonna be going to the Maasai Mara how many times a year do these trips maybe once

197

or twice I mean not not super maybe three times like i was just

198

i was just in my yeah i am always traveling

199

and i was just in montana like a month

200

and a half ago photographing and yeah you know that's a guy at the guy's place

201

that had the wolf pelt here what are these these are

202

so these um like i just pulled out my gouache paints

203

and i wanted to i hadn't done a gouache painting in a long time

204

and i wanted to get my feet wet again and

205

so i did a little this is a little gouache painting

206

that i did the other day and then I just finished doing a watercolor course

207

and so these are another gouache painting I did this as a live stream one of the rhinos

208

that I'd seen but these are all watercolors

209

that I did for as demos for this course

210

that I I just finished and I've got piles

211

and piles of them you know just talking about painting loose how to use frisket

212

you know letting watercolor be watercolor how do you paint fur textures um you know all

213

that kind of stuff so many people get into watercolor

214

and they get so tight and they get

215

so you know they it they they get so bound up

216

and so i wanted to show that she can be really loose

217

and let watercolor be be what it is let it you know painting skies can be super easy

218

and fun and that sort of thing if you just you know attack it

219

and let the watercolor do what it does best

220

and that's you know let it run around

221

and let it do its thing you know this is uh acadia the sketchbook

222

that you saw there where we're up in a up in maine um

223

i went back again uh a couple years ago with my father

224

and i took him and i came back

225

and this is i used one of the photographs

226

and did a quick watercolor sketch those rocks there are just incredible um this is a bison

227

that i saw out in the snow just a few weeks ago

228

when i was up in Montana you know watercolor sketch of

229

that same with this landscape this is a this one

230

I was talking both of these landscapes I was talking about the abstract qualities of of landscape and how

231

when you really just look at the the abstract shapes

232

it's there's they're not really representational it's just our brain kind of pulling it all together

233

and this is these are just quick ones

234

I did out of my head just showing the use of showing their use of frisket yeah

235

this one here is backlit yeah that's pretty fun

236

and then let's risk it you know frisket this

237

when you paint it's like latex liquid latex

238

and you paint it on the paper where you take

239

it off yeah you paint on the paper where you don't want the watercolor to go

240

and so that's what I did here so I just painted on the clouds

241

and the Sun and I did these big washes over the top

242

and And then I pulled the frisket off and then finished off the clouds.

243

And one of the first things I ever, I started learning watercolor when I was eight years old.

244

And my stepfather, he had a degree, a bachelor's degree in interior design.

245

And so a lot of the designs he would do, he'd go over them in watercolor.

246

So he sat me down one night when I was eight, and he showed me how to do a wet into wet wash.

247

I just remember how magical it was.

248

He did a sunset.

249

He says, this is, you know, this is how you do a wash.

250

And I just remember being completely mesmerized by it.

251

And so the very first lesson that I give in my watercolor course as a little homage to my stepfather,

252

and I sat down and I did a sunset wash just to show how, you know, how the medium works.

253

and uh just having fun with that

254

and then this was just a little uh prismacolor sketch

255

and uh you know on hot press paper smooth watercolor paper

256

and um and doing watercolor washes over the top of

257

that how you can tint drawings and that sort of thing so these are all part of the course

258

and i got a pile there and i've got i think i've got more this is this is just a

259

that was just a crappy drawing this one here

260

I've got piles of stuff around here that's a cool one yeah

261

that was that was just a made -up lion I just wanted to do some kind of character

262

but that's once again it's ink and watercolor

263

and then I threw a little bit of gouache over the top you know for the light areas

264

and then over the summer I was in Montana again

265

and photographed among other animals i photographed this pronghorn

266

and then went back to my hotel room that night

267

and did a little pen water that's a a ballpoint pen sketch with watercolor over the top

268

so lots of stuff like

269

that yeah this is a little watercolor about oh i got damaged but this is a watercolor of a uh

270

polar bear that i just did recently um i'm doing an animated short called snow bear

271

And so I got onto a polar bear kick and so this is a ballpoint pen and watercolor sketch that I did

272

But you can see how I don't

273

Put pen in there.

274

Yeah, yeah a little.

275

Yep.

276

Exactly delicate like yeah, that's how it's that's one of the things I love about ballpoint is you can get super delicate with it

277

But stupid me I treat my stuff badly and I've got cat hair on it and all kinds of stuff

278

Oh, this is cool.

279

This is uh, I did I did a show a while back I did a show a while back,

280

it was on cats, and so they asked me if I would participate, and it was all paintings and things like that,

281

but I wanted to see if I could do something animation related, so I did these two panels, each panel had four drawings of a cat,

282

the walk cycle of a cat, and then I took those drawings and I put them in a little thing, this.

283

I put them in this, and this accompanied the show.

284

So the people could look at the images on the wall, but then they could flip this and they could see how the animation worked.

285

So that was kind of cool.

286

And it was really cool that they let me do it.

287

You know, the guy that was running the show was really kind of forward thinking,

288

and he wanted to try something that they hadn't really done before.

289

And it turned out to be a really popular attraction for the show kids loved

290

it that's a real monkey skull that I picked up in Nepal

291

when I was there and it's the skull is underneath all

292

that jewel and silver and all that kind of stuff yeah what's

293

that right next to it to the left

294

that anatomical skull yeah what is that thing from Proko oh wow wow look at

295

that there it is have you ever shown them before no well

296

I haven't I haven't released them yet they'll probably be really yeah by the time

297

this video comes it'll probably be released but this is so awesome so my good friend stan prokopenko gave me this

298

so here it is the unboxing yeah

299

so you can the other cool thing is that's got a tripod mount right here

300

you can screw it mount it on a tripod and put it at different angles

301

and the jaw is magnetic look at this how cool is that it's a beautiful print

302

these are so nice i highly highly recommend it thank you

303

and i just got it i just got it

304

so i haven't figured out where to put it yet put

305

it on a mini tripod well oh that's a that's a perfect idea.

306

I've got a mini tripod in amongst all this junk somewhere.

307

Yeah, somewhere.

308

Onto the cool stuff now.

309

Well, actually, this table.

310

Oh yeah, this desk.

311

Yeah, this desk.

312

This is my original Disney desk.

313

So I jumped around on different desks while I was there, but this one, once I got on it,

314

I stayed with it, and it moved with me every time I'd move offices.

315

So I've had this desk since Beauty and the Beast, and the day you can see a little carving right here, it's all scratched in.

316

I scratched it in with an X -Acto knife, but what I did was I rubbed in graphite as much as I could into the table,

317

and I sat down with an X -Acto knife and scratched out this lion portrait on the day that I started

318

The Lion King.

319

and it says right here 1292 so that's when i started that's

320

when i sketched it and then uh i was on the movie for about a year

321

and i spray fixed it

322

so that's how it survived all these years

323

it's been spray fixed yeah kind of cool lots of lots of history with this desk

324

and so when i left disney um they they let me buy it oh you have to buy oh

325

so this was like the desk at the studio yeah

326

this is just at the studio where I actually worked every day

327

and animated yeah this is everyone had the same yeah

328

we all had the same desk oh that's cool yeah they were awesome yeah

329

and I they were great I mean they it's a you know it's a $5 ,000 desk

330

but they I bought

331

it for twelve hundred bucks what are you working on this is um some hand animation

332

I did I was doing a demonstration on how to do a take

333

so these are these are the drawings

334

that I did for the demonstration

335

I also wanted to show you how I wanted to show the viewers how distorted

336

we could get here's here the character is going from this

337

squished scrunchy face up to this big look right here as they go

338

changing expression with a big smile coming down there's that the circles are my keys.

339

So I hear the cat's looking up and then doing a take and getting really excited.

340

And you can see as the head comes up, the jaw catches up.

341

And this is one here.

342

I thumbnail everything.

343

You know, I make sure that my thumbnail, thumbnailing is, you know, doing like pre -sketches, trying to figure it all out ahead of time.

344

So these are some thumbnails that I did for a character.

345

This is a character I designed for one of my acting for animation courses

346

so these are all sketches i did as i was trying to figure out his design

347

and uh he's just this big burly guy kind of a marine looking dude and uh

348

and i did this little thing where i had him turning around this is him turning around just a simple turn around.

349

But I did it so I could figure out the way he's built.

350

You can see him just turning around, the eyebrow going up.

351

He's not a nice guy, he's mean.

352

He's a hard ass, this guy.

353

so these are these are thumbnails for another little shot

354

that I was animating with him and

355

so you know here he is then he comes forward

356

I can't remember what he was saying um this is for a course

357

he did yeah these didn't make it into the course I didn't end up using these

358

but I saved the drawings and uh there's a scene there's a scene in Beauty and the Beast where she,

359

Belle is saying something to him trying to plead for him to let her father go and he goes,

360

well he shouldn't have trespassed here and he comes right in the camera

361

and he shouldn't have trespassed here and I animated

362

that in the movie so I wanted to do something similar with this character

363

he starts here and he does a take you can see him scrunch up see that scrunch and then he jumps forward

364

so it's fun stuff to do you still map out though yeah

365

so these are the charts yeah

366

so these are how the in -betweens go all the in -between drawings if I had done them but I didn't

367

because this is like drawing one that's drawing nine

368

so there's a whole bunch of drawings I have to go in between

369

because but it's such a subtle movement I don't want to have to do all those drawings

370

so there's three more drawings that go in between there so that's that

371

and what else we got so this is my digital setup over here

372

and with three monitors you have three monitors well this monitor

373

because I use this one mainly for Dustin my son

374

because he when we do our live streams depending on

375

if I'm sitting at this desk or this desk he sits in the opposite chair

376

and he uses that monitor to monitor

377

and to monitor what's going on with our live with our with our chat yeah yeah

378

and then i use these this is my reference monitor

379

when i'm you know when i have reference to use i put it up here

380

and then this is where my big cintiq this is a 32

381

that i do all of my all of my work on

382

and then the stand i built the stands for it this stand right here and It was very recent, right, that you built this stand?

383

Yeah, this one I built...

384

breeze it because i just got this one i had a different setup i had a 24 or 27

385

on the last one and i had a different setup uh

386

but this one i just we just threw it together really fast

387

and then this this rotates i can move it around you know put it

388

and you don't want to just buy an arm no why i like building i like building stuff

389

so yeah i'm going to paint them all black eventually

390

so they'll blend together I kind of like the wood I do too actually

391

oh my skull well this is my favorite this is right here yeah

392

this is a rat it's a freaking giraffe it's a giraffe yeah

393

and it's real that's a real skull um this one uh yeah

394

I think it was hunted unfortunately uh I went into a taxidermy shop in uh uh in Texas

395

and they had it for sale

396

and I just didn't want it to go to waste

397

I didn't want its death to be you know in vain

398

so I bought it and i've used it as reference i've used it for teaching

399

so it's really cool these are casts right here all four of these are casts

400

so i have a whole line of animal drawing courses on my website

401

and so anytime i pick a new animal to do a course on i order the skull for

402

that animal so here i just i did a course on bears

403

and so i ordered a grizzly bear skull

404

and a polar bear skull plus i ordered polar bear skull

405

because i'm doing the an animated short called snow bear and

406

so i wanted to have this and uh

407

so you can see they're they're significantly different and yet significantly the same

408

but like polar grizzly bears have this forehead

409

they have a dish whereas polar bears are really flat from their top of their head to their snout

410

and they're much longer it's a longer head

411

but you can see too they're a lot more robust

412

they're it's a bigger animal polar bears are bigger than grizzlies they they're the biggest carnivore on earth

413

and then a horse skull right here yeah that's a horse skull

414

and a lot of people don't realize horses have canines right here yeah not all of them do

415

but a lot of them do why do they have such

416

big gaps between their like just for the grinding further

417

and then there's nothing yeah I know no there's nothing there they they clip clip the grass with their front

418

and they grind it with their back

419

and what do they do with the canine the the the it's mostly males that'll have them

420

and they they'll use them for fighting oh yeah

421

when they're fighting other males this is a lion skull

422

and i did a course on big cats i just love

423

this thing you can see how robust how big it first of all how big a lion's head is

424

and uh but this is all i was almost the size of your head almost

425

almost the size of my big fat head.

426

But I'm always on the lookout for skulls.

427

You know, like I said, I did a course on big cats, and so I ordered these, and these are all cats.

428

There's a lion, and this is a leopard, so you can see that a leopard is significantly smaller.

429

But I'm always on the lookout for new skulls, and sometimes I find them.

430

Like, I have an otter skull that I have in storage from an otter

431

that I found on the side of the road,

432

and I kind of hid it off in the bushes and went back later and got the skull.

433

But this one's real, and I can't live in Florida without having an alligator skull. Is this one real?

434

Yeah, this is real.

435

This is a real skull.

436

I picked this one up at a swap meet.

437

So, yeah, I think I paid like 30 bucks for it, too.

438

Oh, my God.

439

Yeah, but it's an awesome skull.

440

this is a big gator this is about a probably 10 foot gator

441

so he's a big one so all the skulls on this shelf right here

442

that they look like the same skull just did they get

443

smaller like i don't know anything about cats are they all cats no

444

they're not what's interesting is these three are the same

445

and these three are the same so these three are cats so this is a leopard okay

446

this is a mountain lion or cougar puma

447

and then this is a bobcat okay so you can see

448

that they basically all have the same structure it just gets more

449

and more delicate yeah and then here you have a fox okay

450

and then a coyote and then a wolf right here okay yeah

451

and this is a big gray wolf it's a big animal

452

so it's dogs and cats dogs and cats right they got dogs

453

and cats on they look they're so sour i know

454

but we all i mean it's really i mean you could look at our skull

455

and just reshape it

456

and it's we've got all the same parts reshape it yeah except

457

they're horrible you know we except we we you know this bone connects whereas on the other animals they don't connect

458

for those of you that are disney people this is you know the original artists

459

that worked with walt disney were the nine old men they were the original animators

460

and probably my favorite artist out of the nine old men was milk call

461

and um melt animated cheer khan and all kinds of really cool animation

462

but this is one of his drawings that a friend of mine gave me

463

and uh it's like one of my most prized possessions

464

and then this is about one fifth of all my books too

465

so i've got piles and piles and piles of books

466

and they're mostly art they're either art books

467

or nature books um this book here this is one of the first

468

when i was a young kid this came out in 1980 i believe

469

so i was i was 12 in 1980

470

and i remember getting this book

471

and um guy koliak uh guy koliak is he's pushing 90 now

472

so you can see how young he was in the photograph there but mr bean yeah

473

But the images in here, these are all his paintings.

474

And I was just, I would copy these drawings and paintings.

475

He drew so, or he draws so well.

476

And, you know, and really a wide variety of mediums too.

477

And that really influenced me.

478

There's acrylic paintings in here.

479

There's watercolor paintings.

480

There's oil paintings.

481

And I always loved this book.

482

So I've had a version of this book.

483

Because the first one I had when I was 12, we actually our house burnt down and i lost all my books

484

but i've over the years i've kind of re redone them

485

491

Oh, there's the clips.

492

I knew I had clips.

493

Doggone it.

494

I was using those bread clips on there before.

495

And the last big charcoal drawing I did, I went out and bought clips and I forgot that I bought clips.

496

I have the same thing where I'll have like drawers and drawers of stuff.

497

Yeah.

498

And I'll just go buy it again.

499

500

And you end up with piles of the same stuff so here's more uh acrylics just different brands these are

501

those marshmallows no those are sponges and closed dyes and markers sharpie markers and

502

515

All the points were covered in cardboard, and then I wrapped the whole thing in bubble wrap and checked it.

516

That's funny.

517

Cool.

518

Well, thank you so much.

519

Yeah, man.

520

Great studios.

521

Yeah.

522

I'm sure people, when they see your work and they see all the stuff you do,

523

these courses you make, they don't think your studio is this little box.

524

It's tiny.

525

Yeah, it's just a tiny little room.

526

I've had big studios and I've had little ones.

527

This is probably the most efficient studio I've had because everything's got its place

528

And, you know, we do all of our live streaming in here.

529

We do all of our, we record all of our courses in here.

530

Yeah.

531

Nice.

532

So it works out great.

533

Yeah.

534

You used to live on an island, right?

535

In a big, big house.

536

How big was your studio in there?

537

It was, it took, it was a whole floor.

538

It was a whole floor.

539

So it was.

540

It's like five times bigger than this?

541

Yeah.

542

Oh yeah.

543

Absolutely.

544

And then when I was in California, I had another one that was, I had a whole building.

545

That was my studio.

546

And that was, that was awesome.

547

The whole Disney studio.

548

Yeah.

549

Well, but it was i had i had three different buildings on my on my property

550

and one of them was just a studio

551

that i miss i do i did like that

552

so you prefer the bigger yes yeah i definitely especially

553

if i want to do some big paintings and things like

554

that you know doing the charcoal drawings it gets kind of cramped

555

and it's tight and

556

if you had a bigger studio would you draw even bigger i'd go bigger oh i definitely go bigger

557

so this is so you're being held back by the studio yeah right

558

Oh man, when are you creating?

559

Well, we'll see.

560

I'm currently looking for property and a bigger house because my family grew.

561

Yeah.

562

Yeah.

563

So we've got more people here.

564

This house I used to live in alone, but my girlfriend moved in and three daughters. So, yeah.

565

So we've really expanded in size.

566

So I've got to get a bigger place.

567

And actually, that's one of the things we'd like to do, too, is we're doing a lot of workshops nowadays days

568

and I'd love to get a place where I could have people come to me

569

and we can just teach oh yeah have like a little art ranch

570

and just eat right there yeah I think I'd be like a week -long workshop yeah yeah

571

La grammatica di questo video

Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:

Struttura	Nel video
Present perfect continuous have/has been + -ing — un’azione iniziata prima e ancora in corso	we've been recording · I've just been doing · I've been experimenting
“Used to” used to + verbo — un’abitudine o uno stato passato che non è più vero	used to live
Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso	I've sold · I've done · have been
Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa	is let · being completely mesmerized · be released

Pronuncia a cui fare attenzione

Chi parla usa 160 contrazioni e forme ridotte, come I've, they're, don't. Pronunciale nella forma breve, così come le senti.

I suoni “th”: smooth /smuːð/, underneath /ˌʌndɚˈniθ/, thumbnail /ˈθʌm.neɪl/

Parole lunghe — attenzione all’accento: animation /ˌæn.ɪˈmeɪ.ʃən/, demonstration /dɛmənˈstɹeɪʃən/, imagination /ɪˌmæd͡ʒəˈneɪʃən/, participate /pɑːˈtɪs.ɪ.peɪt/, experimental /ɪkspɛɹəˈmɛntəl/

I suoni difficili per chi parla italiano:

/h/ — va soffiata, non è muta: whereas /(h)wɛɹˈæz/, hike /haɪk/, haircut /ˈhɛə(ɹ)kʌt/
Consonante finale — senza aggiungere una vocale dopo: desk /dɛsk/, photograph /ˈfoʊ.təˌɡɹæf/, sketch /ˈskɛt͡ʃ/, wolf /wʊlf/, clip /klɪp/
/æ/ — più aperta della “e”: photograph /ˈfoʊ.təˌɡɹæf/, animation /ˌæn.ɪˈmeɪ.ʃən/, wrap /ɹæp/, scratch /skɹæt͡ʃ/, whereas /(h)wɛɹˈæz/

Come esercitarsi con questo video

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
