Do you like to listen something while drawing? (Besides music)

[Azifri]

I listen to Carey purring <3 She has her work space on the desk.

Summary

[kimketli]

Movies and series, I have already watched, so I don't have to see them, just listen. :>

[Shanny8]

Sometimes I'll run the TV/movies as background noise while I'm working; other times I'll listen to a few podcasts...I've gotten away from listening to podcasts lately, so I'm trying to get back to listening to them again.

[LCT_m_a_d]

I used to listen to Meditation/Therapy apps when I was struggling and trying to get better at programming. I might try that with my drawing.

[inkycharland]

Audiobooks and Podcasts for me.

[TAMAnnoying]

I also listen to critical role! It’s wonderful and they have a huge backlog that I’ve already caught up on XD. I also listen to other artist while drawing but I don’t actually have many channels listed, it’s mostly just drawfee, but they are a wonderful group and they sometimes do eps where they give advice.

Besides that I often listen to movie reviews of movies I’ve already watched. I already know what’s happening so I don’t have to strain all my attention on it and mostly just listen to what they have to say about scenes and plot structures. It’s rare but sometimes I listen to audio books when I can’t find ANYTHING else to listen to.

Like someone else said, I tend to watch movies or TV shows that I've already seen so I dont have to physically watch it and focus on drawing. So lots if Golden Girls and horror movies..

[unknown_user]

I listen to my boyfriend's speeches about neural networks and computer games

[feuersichel]

He should do youtube videos then xD

I'm also listening to a lot of stuff while drawing. Mostly letsplays, reviews and stuff with lots of talking. But I'm faster the less attention I have to give. Just while doing the basic sketches and text I need silence or calm music

[yondoloki]

I listened primarily to music until a year ago where I found some webcomic podcasts, and I found that works much better for me. ATM I'm super into Critical Role and when I caught up on the second campaign I started on the first.

It's really nice since you don't have to be attentive all the time and have small bursts of activity (ofc depends on the individual episode), so I kinda get breaks and then back to work and such

[joannekwan]

I really like listening to movie reviews on youtube!
The ones I frequent are Angry Joe's movie reviews and Midnight Screenings from Stoned Gremlin Productions.
And since both are just a group of people sitting in a space discussing, I don't have to worry about watching any of it.

Also particularly in the case of Midnight Screenings, they often will point out parts of a movie and explain why they don't work, which I find useful in my own story crafting. Sure there are lots of spoilers, but they're usually for films I wouldn't see anyway.

Vinesauce. only issue is that Vinny and Rev have that voice that gets me to fall asleep.... recently even Joel makes me sleep

also Sorrow TV

[dozenofpugs]

Ah yes, usually like others, I watch shows I don't have to pay attention. I realised I'm even bored when I try to listen to music while drawing! I need constant talking or else I start doing other things and distract myself...

Also, recentlly - Game Grumps! Compilations on youtube that have 10+ hours are so soothing for me, I probably watched every one of them a few times. They've been my recent obsession, really.

[chickknightgreenleaf]

I had created a playlist of Vsauce to play as back ground noise as i draw

[DruidPeter]

I typically listen to EDM, Epic Orchestral Fantasy Music, Nightcore, and other types of youtube videos that really have a lot of emotional power in the music. It often helps me focus on what I want to accomplish with my webcomic. It's a story that I feel is really worth telling, and I feed off of the energy that really powerful and emotional music gives me when drawing.

[Velvero]

I actually listen to creepy pastas, I tend to get scared very easily and for some reason I draw better with a small rush of adrenaline

[Shanny8]

I might look into listening to audiobooks...

[joannekwan]

Speaking of audiobooks, if you have a library card you can access a ton for free with Overdrive (they have an app called Libby on mobile)!

[Shanny8]

I just updated my library card back in November so that I could use their site to "check out"/read books on my Fire tablet(which I still havent done yet)...but def gonna start looking at stuff in the next few months.

[silverraven0]

I do.

...

silence...

(lol, couldn't really listen to them since the Medibang on my phone often shut themselves and makes me come back to my previous 10 minutes save point. It's killing me ahhhhhhhhh...)
