Done MvTvR

Mercutio Vs. Tybalt Vs. Romeo is complete! Atleast the rougher school version is done. I'll re-shoot some scenes and edit it further for the final release. I'll be adding new, original music (hopefully), and fixing some problems with animated dialogue, and maybe re-shoot a whole fight scene, but I'll see how things are.

i'll just work on some promo stuff today, like avatars, signatures, and perhaps posters.

Feeling great!

I've gotten so far today! Yesterday was a train wreck, and today is just golden! I have to animate up to the battle scene, at a minimum, tonight. Then edit like mad tomorrow. If I can finish the fight tonight, I'll be laughing.

-M

YES!

All dialogue is done. Yes. Yes. YES! Just have to find speech lengths, animate dialogue, animate fight, and then edit! If I have time, I'll re-animate the first fight, because it's lacking, a little. It's nice not to have my Firefox window open every few seconds and check if I have new email or PMs. Now it's just me, my Lego, and my computer.

Back at It

I've voiced most of the characters myself, and I'm going off of them for frame lengths, and If I can voices in from people, then lucky me, and I'll just use that audio. I should get lots done today.

Running In Circles

I haven't gotten a lot done today, and I'm most displeased, but I have another about 6 hours left in the day that"ll be awake enough to live. I ended up doing a lot of thr roles myself as 5 people couldn't do the part. I spent time waiting for voice actors to submit their takes from 12:00 until about 4:00 when I finally canned that idea and took control.

I'm taking a little break because I feel like a waste of space right now.

Bail Out

A lot of my voice actors have bailed out, and I'm down to me and two others. I'm gonna do my lines, and get animating.

Waiting...

Finished the initial fight scene I was going to do, but now I;m waiting on a couple lines so I can finish the rest of the film. Dialogue scenes shouldn't take long, just the Mercutio Vs. Tybalt scene.
After I release this in my English class, I'll probably redux a few scenes. Quality is a little low due to time constraints.

All Day Long

I've worked on my film for the past week, after school, and I'm excited to put a full day in tomorrow. Hopefully I can start a 6 AM and go until 9 PM. Fifteen hours should give me a good amount of time animate. :P

More to Tybalt Vs. Romeo than Tybalt Vs. Romeo

My english teacher told me to do the whole Act 3 Scene 1 of Romeo and Juliet, which is rather long and wordy except for the fights, and they aren't even to be that long. So instead, I'm just starting at the start of the act to the end of both fights.

The act goes like this: dialogue, dialogue, dialogue, dialogue, Mercutio fights Tybalt, Mercutio dies, Romeo fights Tybalt, Tybalt dies, dialogue, dialogue, dialogue...

So I'm just doing: dialogue, dialogue, dialogue, dialogue, Mercutio fights, Romeo fights yada yada yada.

You get my point.

First Scene Finished

I finished animating the first little scene last night. I'm impressed with how parts of it turned out. Couldn't animate tonight, because of a social test, and an Essay I had to type up. Hopefully will animate tomorrow and get a decent amount done again.

I'm thinking it'll be out sometime next week, or atleast the rough draft will be finished. No guarantees. ;)

Tybalt Vs. Romeo

I'm beginning work on a new film for school, but I have high hopes that it will be epic, so it'll definitely be on Youtube.

Boys Wanna Be Her - NEW FILM

I finished up the film I was working on for the last few days. It's just a warm-up kind of film to get me in the motion of stop motion. Get it? No. Yeah, it was a lame joke. Damn internetz, can't make jokes with text!

Watch the video on my Youtube Channel.

Animating Again

I'm currently working on a quick short just to warm me up to animating again. I have a big project in mind for the future. Not the near future, so don't get really excited, too soon. :P

Replaceement website...

  So, as you probaby know, my website has been down for quite some time, now. Fact is, I've now deleted it. This blogger page will be my permanent "website" for updates and everything. My website was basically an update page, like a blog, anyways. I'll try to get this theme to actually look good. :/

  In regards to filming, which is what you really want to hear, I have switched to Mac for 70% of films, now. What I mean by that is, I capture frames on Windows and do a little image tweeking/editing on there (30%), then do all the intensive editing on Mac OS (70%).  It took longer than it should have to get it all running properly.
  The physical studio is a mess and rather uncomfortable, but I won't go into details. I have not been working an anything in the past half a year, except for computer crap that you wouldn't care to see. I have promised myself to get right back into the swing of animating, and I've promised you guys I'd get back into the swing, so I can't stop now. Expect a film in under 1 months time.

See you starside.
