Film W.I.P #3

The Joys of animating a 'sneak walk' in perspective..! Yes that is a gigantic pigeon you are seeing!
Our deadline is coming up on Wednesday and I fear that everything took alot longer than it should have..  though with no sleep I'm still hopeful..

Nothing interesting to report, I haven't left my computer or done anything of note for the last few weeks!

Film W.I.P #2

Rap and animation

Four awesome animated rap music videos! Just a heads up, some of these are pretty 'NSFW' (Crude language, adult themes, rape, drugs etc!)

Dance with the devil, by Immortal Technique with animated visuals by German animation student Viola Baier.  Love this song and I think that the visuals really compliment the story! I recommend checking out her blog, there's a trailer for another film that is just as cool!

  Pretty dark but again I think that the animation compliments it very well. There is a reaction video of his uncle hearing the song for the first time and more videos of this guy shooting up heroin. It's very sad and I just saw that he died in 2010.

Teachers pet, Gary Baseman

Tonight will be a night of nostalgia! My sister reminded me of the cartoon series Teachers Pet that I used to watch when I was younger, based on the art of the incredibly awesome Gary Baseman
(who also happens to design very cool Vinyl toys!)


The general premise is that there is a Dog that wants nothing more than to become a boy, who likes to dress up and go to school along with his Owner/Best friend Leonard. But for me the main appeal was the background art and the animation which in my opinion is brilliant!

Anyway, apparantly in 2004 they released a feature length Teachers Pet film that completely slipped by me, I've lined it up to watch tonight- I just hope it's as fun as I remember!

Check out some of Baseman's work, it's definitely worth it!
 

The Plymptons




New york indie animator Bill Plympton made this intro for the simpsons which aired on the 15th of april!
I like the style, and it's particularly cool to see that on something like the Simpsons!

Film W.I.P




Taking me a stupid amount of time to get this door right, but I like the Dust and Leaves! just putting this up to show someone right now so it will eventually be replaced with the 'completed' shot, missing a character right now!

Edit : Got the character in there now, just cleaning it up!

This is very sad- I didn't know him but i had hoped to meet him at the newgrounds 2010 meetup and always enjoyed his cartoons. Rest in peace Edd!
