My Very First YOUTUBE Video!!

Check it out guys- I published a video on YouTube! 🎉🎉🎉

I have no doubt it won’t take so much time as I grow more familiar with the process, but I have a whole new appreciation for creators that put together videos for platforms like YouTube! It was a lot of work! If I had to guess, I would say that I probably put at least 36 hours into this video! AT LEAST!!

Introducing: My Bitmoji

I also want to share with you a little backstory..

A couple years ago, I started playing with the Bitmoji app on Snapchat. I was absolutely amazed at how much my Bitmoji really did look like me! Several months later, I was “shopping” through the new clothes when I found the first AMAZING synchronicity… My bitmoji and I were TWINNING with the same hat!!

I was so excited when I realized that we have the SAME HAT!! 😍

THEN…

So last early fall- about a year ago already (wow, really? 😳)- I had started writing a course. And I was lovingly adding my Bitmoji every spot I could find an appropriate sticker.

This is a slide from the introduction to my course Creating Holistic Goals

There are almost 1,000 stickers, which is more than enough to choose from. Plus, I have gotten pretty good at using Krita- the highly versatile and open source FREE software for digital illustration and animation- so the options are literally limitless.

Another Surprise

Earlier this year, around late January- early February I remember it was unseasonably warm out for a couple days. Jim and I decided to go out for a late night bike ride, when I spotted a dumpster sitting alongside a house. Without hesitation, we pulled up behind it and parked our bikes before we jumping in.

You see, Jim and I are dumpster divers. We like it call it “the Dumpstore.” And you would be absolutely AMAZED to hear the things we have rescued from the dump… But that is for another post.

In this particular Dumpstore, I was giddy like a kid on Christmas morning when I pulled out yet another gift from the universe…

The universe sent me my very own
Hand Pointer Stick! 🤩

Look at that smile on my face!! I was absolutely OVER THE MOON about this!! I took it with me everywhere for weeks after that so I could show all my friends!

The Best Surprise Yet!

Ok… One of the best surprises! Because there have definitely been many of them!

I had been contemplating how to present a certain project I was working on. In fact, that project will be the second video I post… Coming soon!

I remember wishing that I could make my Bitmoji talk earlier in the day. And as I kept working, it hit me to look into this idea further. So I did a quick Google search and it wasn’t long before I was downloading an app, and VOILA!

My singing, talking BITMOJI was born!

Made with DreamFace

I was officially HEAD OVER HEELS IN LOVE… with my Bitmoji!!! 😍

DreamFace is an amazing app that uses AI to create videos from text, photo animation, lip syncing, and beautiful photo enhancement. It does have some paid features but I think it’s worth the money! And I HIGHLY recommend it!

Check out this photo comparison of before and after DreamFace enhanced an old photo from my childhood!

After enhancement! Thanks DreamFace!

I thought that was giddy before… ERMEHGERD!!!

And now…

The moment I am sure you have been waiting for… 😝😂

Iridescent Alchemyst & Ashley Marie Meredith are PROUD TO PRESENT…

#Bitmoji looks a lot more sophisticated than the last time I looked at it. Just updated my avatar on Steam with a cropped version of this.

Cartoon of a brown-skinned person seated and slightly smiling at the viewer. They have dark brown eyes and long curly black hair, and are wearing dark blue jeans, black boots, and a black T-shirt with a heart in the trans pride flag colors of blue, pink, and white.

Who do I need to yell at to get #bitmoji to put the avatars back have they used to be?

I've lost one of my few remaining sources of joy

Nope, I am totes not scrolling back through all my chats and downloading every old style #bitmoji I ever sent. Nope, not me!

Seit langem noch mal meinen Klassenraum aktualisiert... Auch wenn es mit H5P fummelig ist, so liebe ich es doch als Header in meinem Moodle-Kurs. Nun müssen die lieben Kleinen auch davon Gebrauch machen #moodlebande #H5P #digitalesKlassenzimmer #Bitmoji #Prokrastination

For several years now, I've used the first (Bitmoji) image on my blog for my journal posts.
I've been playing a bit with Bing Image Creator and Pixlr, and I created the second image.
While I know the first image will be easier to recognize, I do really love the outcome of the second image... 🤔
What do you think???
