How Wacom Movink helps @figisisters capture ideas whenever they happen

September 24, 2024

Georgina Cahill, known online as @figisisters, is an animator, motion designer, and Illustrator located in Chicago, IL. She’s worked in marketing and advertising creating animations, educational videos, and graphics for global brands such as Blue Moon and Harmless Harvest.

On Instagram, she’s cultivated a community with her often irreverent, always relatable, informative and dynamic content about life as an artist and creative. She also has a Skillshare class, and posts process videos on YouTube.

Cahill doesn’t always work from her home studio — sometimes she looks for inspiration while she’s out and about! We thought she’d be a perfect person to give the new Wacom Movink a try, and she loved it! Watch the video below to see her reaction.

Here’s what she said:

“If you’re a digital artist or animator like me, you probably spend about 90% of your day at your desk glued to your tablet or computer. But here’s the thing — I love blending reality with my animations, and my best ideas always seem to strike when I’m as far away from my desk as possible.

When inspiration hits, I just have to hope the idea sticks around long enough for me to rush back to my desk and bring it to life. That was, until Wacom introduced the Movink tablet. It’s their lightest and thinnest pen display yet, making it ready to go whenever and wherever I am — or wherever inspiration decides to hit me.

Now, whenever I notice something that seems mundane and ordinary, I can turn it into something extraordinary!”

Change is scary sometimes. It also requires time. 🫠
For @adam_theillustrator, it took some time to switch the mouse over a stylus, but he never looked back. 💪
Do you remember what it was like for you? How many tries did it take you to master drawing with a tablet? What advice do you have for new users?

How many strokes to draw Rengoku? 🗡️💥❤️‍🔥
@caleo_real did this challenge and the results were..... Interesting 🤯😂
Do you count your strokes? An artist may choose to paint with as few brush strokes as possible for many reasons, including aesthetic effect, style, technique or emotional impact.

One of the most important steps in animation is BLOCKING! 
We asked @fabgioffre to walk us through his process to show you how easy it can be, especially if you're using the right tools like @toonboomanimation and a Wacom tablet (Fabio is using the Movink on this video). 
Head to Fabio's YouTube channel for the full tutorial or head to our stories to get there.
