Streetfighter colab

Right so Newgrounds is having a "streetfighter collaboration" =). The due date was originally the 10th, and after spending long hours in the final 3 days trying to finish my piece, the deadline was extended. So I'm happy and angry at the same time =) but yeah its good that means i can shine up my piece.
here are some screenies

=) enjoy

ToothBrush troubles project

Is going well, iv animated and colored(it was pain) almost the whole thing, still some color missing like the fellow above's pants. Its a very cartoony, very animated project.


Due within the next week or 2 =) still a lot of tweeking and spit shining that needs to be done, but i'm pretty happy with the way it turned out.. even though there are always thing you look at afterwards and you get that "should of done it like that" feeling, but overall very happy. Also chasing an advertising sponsor, so hopefully it'll get done sooner rather than later, personal projects are piling up hehe =)

SoAngry storyboard

So yeah iv been busying myself with this here storyboard. the idea came to be when me and my brother where talking nonsence and over exagerating a situation.

I'm planning on finishing it, so painting the backgrounds and redrawing everyframe of the animation and redoing the sound is on the menu, just as soon as i can go buy a decent mike, as you might notice it currently makes this strange cluttey noice and also has some static noice in the background, so gotta go spend some money.

neway enjoy =)

Adobe flash CS4

yeeew, it seems like Flash Cs4 has focused on the animation side of flash, like CS3 focused on the revamp of actionscript and adding actionscript3.

There are a ton of cool new animation features such as Inverse Kinematics Engine, new 3D features which will make your 2d object.. well 3d, ow and you have to have a look at this. pretty funky is you ask me. Stage rendering which basically means playing and previewing your movie clips onstage rather than having to export and preview your movie.
Ow and dare i not mention a new tween system which looks pretty swanky, no more creating motion guides or inserting new key frames to tween between, here is a video from Flash on the beach in 2007 to show you what i mean. There are a few more cool animation features, just search it on youtube =D.

Aaron Simpson from ColdHardFlash.com has done an overview of bone structure and inverse kinematics, definitely check it out.

So if your a Newgrounds fan be prepared to see a lot of hose pipe character animation haha, Adobe has made everything a lot easier and added a lot of time savers and i personally can't wait to have a fiddle with Cs4

MotelMadness characters

Some more MotelMadness characters Dad he owns and runs the motel, loves money.
and Wazza, hes a starwars fanatic, and practises his lightsaber skills daily.
i'll upload some more later.

MotelMadness cartoon series

Coming in the hopefully near future.
Iv had this script hidden away from me for a fair while, i have attempted to make something out of it twice now but failed both times, so I'm doing it right this time. This character here is a super hero, every good story should have 1 right haha, but no the story isn't based on him, the story is based on a motel/guest house environment where heaps of crazy things happen.

So i said i was going to do it properly so it turns out good, these are my woes haha i have drawn most of the characters on paper and know how i want them to be shaped and so. And now I'm trying to decide which style would suit the cartoon better. fat or thin lines... mm anyway I'll keep on updating as i progress through the process =)

hello there, though my animations section was feeling a bit lonely so i though i would add this little ruff animation i made last week. Iv been trying to focus on story telling ability, so the viewer can simply and easily follow the story I'm telling, without them even knowing it if possible. Like watching TV basically, and iv come to believe that everyone is quite skilled in this as everyone watches TV and movies, its just a logical train of thought, but then after the basics i think it will start getting extremely technical so I'm trying to build me some foundation blocks.

Awaiting animation at UNI

With only a further 3 months until that big party at the end of the year, times crusing by, and soon i can go to UNI to study animation, and my long wait will be over, for the moment iv just been going to alot of life drawing classes and storyboarding some ideas id like to animate, currently storyboarded "Scary's fat problem" which is more of an insult to a fellow newgroundian who i believe needs some pointers, basically summed up i point out that he needs help and i send a camera man to help him with some basics that any 7 year old can understand.

this is my character inspired by the scarymovie/scream mask which scarymovieguy from newgrounds wears to detur public bashings and witch hunts. I tried to portray the character that i invision him as being a fat lazy guy who thinks the world of himself. neway more on that all later
