People, Places and Things BTS

Did some video work for the reNOUNed Adam Wedd for the launch of his debut EP: 'People, Places and Things'. Get it. Okay, moving swiftly on...

It is a BTS of sorts, shot on my Canon 60D/Rodemic on the day where they did the last bits of recording including sax guy and double bass guy. The EP's making some traction on the web-o-sphere, so support that independent muscle, follow him on Twitter, FB and all that jazz, and have a listen to some of his stuff on YouTube. If you like it, show some love and then why not buy the EP when it comes out.

At the moment just exporting some animation from Ae for a tutorial video I am doing, plus thinking about MOQ's intro. Plus, waiting for an update on a promo that technically should be happening this week. But we'll see. For now, I'm just backing up the archives and deleting all these unknown files from the crypt that is my computer. So if I have an unclaimed piece of edit, raw footage, unuploaded footage, rendered image that you haven't got because you were too busy or couldnt be bothered, well they are going bye-bye. Space is limited as is. How does one go through a Tera that quickly. I'll never know.

Sum up,
Papagayo is the nectar of the animation gods.

Brand Level Up maybe?

Recently had the opportunity to produce some artwork and story art for a promo for a reknowned sports brand which was quite cool to say the least. The top tiers seemed to like it, particularly my clairvoyant draughtsmanship of the protagonist whom I did not see before I drew him. Here is a quick image that didn't make the final cut.

That aside. MOQ is on hold (I told you all I shot it in February, right?) as I am doing some lip sync for a tutorial video that really may as well be that thing... you know, like supposed we as humans had a thing or action that could 'short circuit' us. Like, example, we say a phrase like "What do you mean the horse blurs your vision" that triggers an aneurysm in your brain. Maybe lip sync will be that for me. Who knows.

Sum up,
Death Note. Wo, Light is such a punk.

Guillotine Swizzord Move!

This is it. Hamburger Hill. Half a banana clip that you got the GTA way. RedMan frames are being completed piece by piece. This is despite trying to keep on top of producing a short film. Which is annoying to say the least. Like tending to numerous bushfires at once. But it'll eventually get done. February 15th people! Mark it to death.

Meanwhile deep in the super-secret lair of the Villainous Vagabond, the #animationvagrant concocts another dubious plan for... yeah yeah, check out a frame I did for RedMan:

Til next time kid.

Sum up,

Peace. We out.

Poster Art. Kendrick Lamar Comp.

Kendrick Lamar fans! Well, art fans in general. Was designing this for a competition on Creative Allies. Started working on it. Forgot about it. Missed the deadline. Whoa is me. Anyway, thought I'd share it all the same:

Well, definitely not the best, but 'E' for effort, maybe. That was not to be hummed like that pop dribble on the radio. You know the song I am referring to.

Sum up,
Producing is not fun. At all.

Redman and other campaigns of terror

Hey gang,
One of those weeks where I am faced with numerous things to do and I am trying to block and tackle it all. #prioritise man! Any who, taking a quick break Redman frames (yep, still working on that) and though I'd say whats good. Check out a frame I churned out last night:

Also working on Merchants of Quietus, a short film. Before I was planning to make it a promo film for Lazarus Rising like I did with Black Box.... which is at 20,000+ views on YouTube right now! But after consideration I decided to make it into a film in its own right. The ending's change.... and a lot better if you ask me. Meeting D.O.P Stil to discuss sometime tomorrow hopefully. Meanwhile just working on the script and finalising it and storyboards and getting them printed. Finally got cartridges for the printer. It's been awhile you goddess of duplication.

More on that in the coming week.

Sum up,
The Body Count Rises...

Car DVD Cover Design

Did a little DVD cover for a short film, to which I did story art for as well. Long story, but check it out! Used stills from the clip, bit simple, particularly the back with text, but it's to client specification:

Let me know what you think guys.

Sum up,
Aw shucks, a special message for you from somebody special. http://lazarusrisingfilm.com/2013/01/03/new-year-rising/

Ooo, yeah, we are at 7000+ views on Black Box too.

2013 high-five! (like a normal high- five, you just have to jump when you do it).
