splodge, some stills

Howdya like these splodgey inbetweens?
























They only stay on screen for one frame but they really help give the illusion of movement.







Here's some stills from the scene where Alien Fox tells Rocket and 20 that they all GOTTA EAT EACH OTHERRR ! ! !























I've got some drawings I did in charcoal and pastel too but I've not fixed them yet so I've no been able to bring them in for scanning.

I HAVE scanned in a bunch of my initial notes and idea formulation sheets but I don't know if I want to post them or not...

Gimme a minute to decide

I've got to show evidence of my planning and research

So far I have not. This is a major malfunction.

What I've done for now to help show a bit of this iiiis ...

da - naaa ! !


stuck a box of links to REAALLY goodblogs down the right hand side of this page.
I try and frequent all of these blogs as much as I can whenever I'm online, the individual artists blogs not so much but the community kinda site like cartoonbrew get opened up eeeven beforrre my emaiiiils bro.

also, I don't have them with me today, but I'm going to scan in and upload my preliminary notes etc, the ones I was doing before I really knew what I was doing and more just like a panic on a paper. I think you'll like um.

ALSO , sorry I've not posted in so long! project-wise I've had a really unproductive weekend and I've been absolutely nowhere near the internet.

Thursday night I went with Jamie Green, Charlie Norward and Leon Gower to rock out in force and in shorts at Artjam. Artjams a monthly kind of free for all open mic art event organised by an American guy called Chris, I'm not sure of his second name but he's huge and lovely.

Friday I checked out a really interesting show put on by a bunch of students at Goldsmiths in an old prison building in New Cross. Some of the highlights included a girl brushing her superlong hair lying in a bath (she must have been freeezing) and footballers on plastercast trophies, fighting and drowning in their own success.

Saturday there was a fete ! in an old cemeteray ! full of people dressed up all pale and spooky, taking photos in front of tombstones. There was face painting and badge making too, and the friends of the badgers society. you don't want to know about the night though. I was wearing a blonde wig and had an oversized travel card...

BUT YEAH am back on it now, I'm gonna post up some thumbnails over the next couple of days as well, so stay tuned folks.. The finished products will be about soon.

ALRIIIIIGHT ! ! was in the sound booth with Julie Zoe, my Norwegian narration girl, I mailed the vocal tracks to my mystery music mans and they had the three 3 second tracks back to me by the evening. I've made another teaser, this one is just for the Fox. It took me a few hours before bed last night and then a few more hours earlier on today.

Right now I'm in mcdonalds again, hyuk hyuk hyuk, suck suck suck - so's that I can update you all and post up the movie (you all... aHAHA ! who READS this? say something!)

wotchaa

Have had a real Superman weekend, full of transvestites and burlesque dancers, hi-vis party kids, models and traaaamps.

And they all were excited about this project too when I showed it off using my handy little 4gb ipod.

'Av iiiiit !

I'm only online for a minute though, I've just dashed into mcdonalds to suck there connection for free-hee-hee! and I'm in a rush to get back home today

I have got this to show you though





it's only
THE FIRST EVER PICTURE OF ROCKET EVER














pretty ESSENTIAL or something right?
it's from an interactive movie my momma made in the 90's about a girl who wishes for a crazy, cooky, wild kinda guy. You see the flower in the top left corner? Well there was a screen with a bigger version of that and clicking on the different petals would bring up scenes like the one above with Rocket in it, each one with a different guy hassling the lead gal ("Fancy a bit of train spotting doll?").
IT WAS REAL COOL, I used to go on it loads ... it doesn't run on new op systems though.
but yeah, she let me draw Rocket and put him in there. He's got a super deep booming voice and is all like
BABY, LET ME FLY YOU TO THE MOON
and he does too.
clearly the coolest guy in the whole darn show.

I'm surprised she kept him in in, I didn't get put into the credits at all so like... it kind of looks like she just got lazy with him because she's kept him exactly as I drew him.

Anyways, thought you might like that
