Just in time for the general release of Avatar here's a little 'Behind the scenes' animation what I thinked up. The Na'vi character was voiced by the awesome Chris Lumb.
I was going to make a Christmas animation next but I think I'll take a break for the rest of the year and spend some QT with my Cat Chester!
Due to my recent house move I've been tinkering with this animation on and off for several months. last week I finally had enough of my own excuses and decided that some heavily rolled up sleeves were required.
So there it is! Now it's time to promote this thing. If you enjoyed it please Digg, Facebook, Twitter or whatever it is you can do to help spread the word.
After Three and a half months I finally have a new animation in progress! The voice acting is complete and I'm currently designing the characters and artwork for it. Eric Gusky, who did the narration for Tarboy recorded the audio for me and it sounds amazing! I've also been given permission to use some very, very cool music as the soundtrack but I'm going to keep that a secret for now.
Besides the animation I'm working on 4 new sketches to be sent off for various writing opportunities that I've heard about. These kind of things are always a long shot but I will keep you informed about how they pan out.
One last thing. I am running a 5 mile fun run in a couple of weeks and I'd like to raise some money for the British Heart Foundation. If you fancy sponsoring me you can do so here. I've never run further than 3 miles before so It's kind of daunting but I'm super confident I'll get round in less than a day.
If you haven't seen Tarboy then check it out. It's great! It's got robots, fighting and evil villains! I wish i could animate like this!
I haven't done much animation lately so I thought I'd try and get back into it by doing a short exercise. It's nice to be able to just focus on the animation and not have to worry about characters, plots or trying to make it funny.
I haven't got any new projects on the horizon at the moment. I'm fighting off various annoying illnesses and I'm also moving house in a couple of weeks. Hopefully in September when everything's sorted I'll find some inspiration from somewhere because at the moment I have no idea what I want to do next.
