Updates for the last week of Augest

Well... I was hoping to get the script done when I started it... but it looks like I was busy enough that it took me about a month to do, I feel so sorry for John though because I promise I would get the script done fast so he could make some of the music and also be one of the characters in the show (which I should be finding out very soon)

Also today I got the software! hooray for me! now I can post any work I've done and add neato effects XD and lip sync is really getting easy so theres no troubles there either (yet it is the longest part to do right now) and I'm still working on the bones of my character, but it will come. Finally, the other last main things I have to work on (before school starts) is make different characters, the funny thing is, if I do a Marty mole animation there will probably some of the same characters in it, so yeah its funny to me XD.

Anyways production seems to be going swell, no one has drop out or given up on me (I have to hope I don't because I'm running the whole thing here). My plan is to finish this before my birthday or Christmas since then, I can show it to my family, and all my friends the final project.

So thats all new for now since I've haven't updated here for a while (no I'm not forgetting ya guys)

CartoonistDude Out

Well starting very soon, I'm going to be with my Girlfriend Amanda for the rest of this week so there won't be any updates this week, but expect maybe some new stuff after this week if I'm not going anywhere soon again, anyways for a quick update for whats going on and how far I am.

First off, the script for the animation is almost done, I've been really lacking on that lately, but I've almost got it done, I almost have voice for all the characters and my full software should be coming by the end of this week, there was a delay the first time.

So that's what happening so far and will be all until the next update, see ya later bloggers!

Work so far

So this weekend I've been a little slow working on the script and everything for the animation, but I'm starting to get back into it, so far I've create what the boy character is going to look, since when I first made him he was going to be just as smart as Amara but that seem really boring.
So now that I change him, I had to change his look, but... I'm having some trouble with the colours, but I think I have it figure out, give it a check!

Here is the first verson(left) I did of him. I thought the red was a little too bright and really makes you eyes look at his hat then
anything else, so then thats why I made this verson, but I don't think the shadowing and lighting will be in the real animation, unless I figure out how to do it. Here is the second verson...(right)

Finally, here are the rough sketches of him, 3/4, side, and Front

Welcome Everyone!

Welcome Visitors, This is my first blog, but not just a normal blog, its a blog of what I'm doing everyday with an animation project I'm working on!
Don't expect a fabulous result of it, but good enough to enjoy for the most part. Now, I've already started a bit of work, but I am having some slow downs which is one other reason I'm posting here, because I need help.
I could use help with backgrounds or maybe some crazy funny ideas for this animation (since I'm a little bad at making stories) anyways if someone is willing to do this for free it would really help, and your name (or whatever you want to be shown) will be in the animation at the end.

Anyways I'm typing up the story today and I'll show some of the characters I've design for this hopefully by today or tomorrow, so check for any updates I may come up with.
