Me? Updating my long fic after ages? More likely than you think!

The one where Johnny and Daniel visit Bobby during his sermon together and Johnny reconciles with Miguel.

And other stuff happens…

Abandoned somewhere in France.

joy in my heart

by Potrix

February 5th, 2002

“What do you mean she’s gone?” Johnny glances away from the awkwardly shifting nurse, over to the empty hospital bed. The sheets are rumpled, one of the tabloids Shannon loves to hate lying open on the pillow. Her favorite mug, the tag of the tea she’s started drinking against the morning sickness hanging over the rim, is sitting on the bedside table. “To the bathroom? The cafeteria?”

“Mr Lawrence,” Shannon’s doctor speaks up, and the pity in his voice that he doesn’t quite manage to hide makes something heavy settle in Johnny’s stomach, “your girlfriend left the hospital earlier this morning—”

Johnny’s shaking his head. “No, she—she gave birth a day ago? She—”

“Ms Keene discharged herself, against medical advice, about an hour ago.”

In his crib, Robby starts crying.

[Or; What if Johnny had been forced to step up?]

they’re so precious I can’t ☹️☹️☹️

[clips from: eternals.scenes on insta]

hiii, i just have a question!

how do you sharpen your gifs??? they look so good and clean!!! whenever I see your gifs I am always fascinated with how beautiful they look!

hiii nonnie!!!! first of all im going to cry tytytyty 🥺

I’ll just do a mini tutorial on how I get from this:

to this:

I always try to gif with at least 1080p videos when I can it makes the biggest difference! I don’t think 4k is necessary (plus it slows down PS ALOT)

Okay so once you get your frames into PS (doesn’t matter if “video frames to layers” or “load files into stack” I’ve used both, but I currently use the latter) you want to crop & resize BEFORE you sharpen!   So if your inputed frames were say 1080x772 then you want to resize to 540x386. 

Next you’ll convert your frames into a video timeline, then covert for smart filters. Next I add the sharpening. So I use a slightly modified version of this gif action, by kylos (her gif tutorial) so I can do all those steps really speedy but I’ll break down what sharpening is happening:

Filter > Sharpen > Smart Sharpen. Then apply the following settings, you’ll also want to make sure in the settings ‘legacy’ & ‘accuracy’ are checked

Next you’ll want to duplicate the newly sharpened layer, and on the top layer we’re going to add a little blur so the sharpness isn’t too harsh (idk y we do this just it helps lol) 

Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur. And set the radius to 1.0

Then on the blurred layer set its opacity to 15%. And you should have 2 layers.

And after sharpening this is what the gif looks like:

The real magic happens with colouring!! Everyone has different styles and their favourite tools. My first 3 steps always are: Curves, Levels, Selective Colour. I often just leave it to just those 3 filter layers, but sometimes I’ll add vibrance or adjust the hue/saturation.

I think the best gifs are the ones where the light areas are really bright and the dark areas are black. I think people are worried about making their gifs too dark (b/c most shows are poorly lit) so they focus more on brightening but I think the best gifs also have a really rich black. 

after adding my colouring layers its time to export! File > Export > Save for Web Legacy. These are the settings I use for exporting:

theres a bunch of resources on tumblr that (i cant find one atm but i promise ive seen some!!!!) that talk about the differences between Selective/Adaptive and Pattern/Diffuse/Noise. I just prefer Selective & Pattern  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

once we’re exported we have this!!! (he’s so pretty)

yup so here’s my mini (idk was this mini??) tutorial! so for a recap!!

no sharpening & no colouring:

I hope this was helpful!!! If you want to know my typical colouring settings lmk but it does vary gif to gif.
