Dante, the crusades, the 9 levels of hell, not something I enjoy reading about or watching adaptations of. The concept of the Italian poems really is unnerving. It's ugly, but of course the thanatos in me always peaks my interest. Based on the vid game Dante's Inferno, EA did a series of animations (anime of course). Something about falling, lack of control, screams of terror w/dopler effect. But the sentiment "good intentions pave the roads to hell" and the long standing evils of Anglo-hegemonies is something that I can appreciate. Religosity adds a more relevant twist especially today, as Islam extremism, the Brotherhood, or whatever the BBC is calling it has replaced Christianity and the Propaganda wing of the Roman Catholic Sect as the dominant ideology hellbent on converting heathens through violence.
Segue to my illustrations of Redman. Been doing the frames for a whimsical scene where he falls after his crown. Pretty cool,decided to go with a black, white and red palette. This is a frame I'm currently working on.
Mat H. will be proud. The project's been through so much starting and stopping I thought I'd never get it off to a start.
I wanted this sequence to be intense and violent as his fall into darkness signifes his state of mind, fearless, desperate. He falls to catch his crown, symbolic of his desperate gripe for power and sovereignty of a luster-lack kingship.
It's coming on well. Also looking to get an anthology done that I have been sitting on for the past 4 years. Busy Busy.
Sum up,
Fall for me and I will teach you how to rise with me.

Do It Yourself- Philosophical Masturbation
Saturday was a real pain in the ass. DIY. Bed. upstairs, downstairs. desemble, reassemble. Lifting. Bending, hunger pains, shish, Allens head, philips head, screw this, screw that, screw you. Facebook, subliminal sparring with a mental midget, taking hours to assemble one chair (instructions and illustrations were utter rubbish. But its done. :) and I'm resting.
One more day to vote for the paypal ad i did, or at least go view it:
Bout to get sum dinner boy. I'm also happy cause even in the confusion I helped erect a bed, dining table and just about finished my sisters site ( just a bit more coding etc needed, nothing major).

Ignore the margins...theyre just for structuring.
A few promising meeting this week and next. One- storyboarding, two- editing. Ill let you know.
Oh Remi got that Sweet short filmed...he says it's 90% shot. I say that's 100% awesome. Cant wait to see post production.
Sum up,
Ending one chapter,
starting another
