Hey Bones:
bones weep tedium Wrote:[SIZE="7"]CLICK HERE[/SIZE] Hey everyone, I just finished my short animation for uni and I wanted you guys to be the first to see it! Hasn't got much to do with RJ, but the Monster is partially inspired by Molasar from The Keep movie. PLease watch and let me know what you think! Good/bad, everything welcome!
It was a lot of fun, especially the way you played with hollywood
convention/cliche of an action scene.
My technical question(s) relates to its creation, i.e., is this
rotoscoped? And the extension-question...did you use the
software program made famous in the creation of the movie
"Waking Life," when you made this short?
Just curious.
Will be great to see your future projects.

Hey Mike, you have just payed me the greatest possible compliment for my first ever animated project, in thinking that it might have been rotoscoped!
(Just in case anybody doesnt know, rotoscoping is when you film someone performing the action and then basically draw you art on top of the footage to achieve an eery sense of realism. Waking Life and A Scanner Darkly are both examples of rotoscopy)
This entire animation was hand drawn by myself on a lightbox, and then scanned into the computer to be painted and then put together on a timeline. This process is known as tradigital animation, becasue it is the same as traditional animation except that instead of the individual hand drawn frames being photographed, they are scanned.
Am glad you enjoyed my animation!

A brilliant suggestion! And my pick would be Paul's minimalist and
perfect "The Cleaning Machine."
If memory serves (and it probably doesn't) this story
has three basic sets/locations:
1) Police Detective's Office
2) Front Stoop of the Brownstone
3) Basement of the Brownstone
And the surreal style of Bone's animation would work so well
with the weird/creepy nature of the story...of course, you'd
have to get great voice actors to pull off the police dialogue
which would also work as a voice-over/narration of the
basement scenes...
IMHO.

Goddamn well done, bones. But lemme ask--how long was it from, "I got an idea..." to the finished work?

Hey Mike I agree I actually had Cleaning Machine in mind when I posted
I think it is short enough and interesting enoght to make a great story

I spent about 2 weeks writing it and doing storyboards, character designs etc to plan it.
When I finally knuckled under to draw it all, it took about 4 weeks to produce. But it was an intensive 4 weeks!
