That's the sound of me animating.

Almost two minutes of Stainville 2 have been completed, hampered, of course, by schoolwork, but trudging along nonetheless. Had a lot of free time the past couple of days so I banged out a good 30 seconds and refined a couple things. 99% of the dialogue is already record, including some hilarious voices provided by one Mr. Scott Link.

From the 16th of December to the 24th of January, Scott and I are embarking on a journey into HEAVY PRODUCTION MODE, which will consist of animating hours on end, tweaking with sound, and lots of Scooby Snacks. No, really, though... hours on end.

What do we hope to achieve by next episode? Well, that's up to you. Tell your friends about us and Stainville. And get them to tell their friends. Mention the cartoon whenever possible and help us get the word out. If we see a rise in popularity, we may just consider t-shirts or some sort of merchandise. How else could you make it any more obvious that you have a salami-sized schlong than to rock a "YOU JUST GOTTA BELIEVE" t-shirt?

Consider this option, my friends. And if you're not considering it, we know that you're already acting upon it.

Just when I thought it was gonna be a winter of cranking out Stainville 2, I had a sudden inspiration to work on something else. Don't ask why. I'm still gonna be working on Stainville 2, which should be ready in late winter. However, don't expect anything by the end of the year.

Fucked around with Flash and managed to get a good deal done this week. May be out earlier than expected. (January perhaps?)

Disfruten.

EDIT: So you wanna know how I do it, right? Make all these wonderful little characters? Watch here. Animating "Bawse" - Stainville 2 (WIP)

Pre-production on Stainville 2 has already began. I started working on a background for the opening scene and went on a spree of just cranking out material for the toon. I was recently home from college, so Scoota and I got together one night and recorded a good quarter of the voicing lines. We've just gotta tackle the rest of them over next break and we should be set to getting to the bulk of the animation. Additionally, I'm sending the final product over to Scoota in order for him to put the finishing touches on sounds - so they'll sound much better this time around than episode one. We're also introducing a new member to the Stainville crew as well letting a few friends get on voicing parts to provide for some variety (because, honestly - picking my voice out of 75% of the characters lines just isn't fun at all).

So expect this episode to be out around February or March... or April. Depends on how college decides to treat us this winter. In the meantime, Scoota and I have, for the past few months, threw around the idea of t-shirts, which we may consider making and selling. Would you go for something like this?

Turns out I made almost seven whole bucks off of ads with Paper Mario Madness. Thank guise. That's more than three times what I've made during my entire time on this site up until Madness Day!

Anyways, first person to alert me of the Madness Day winners gets... I dunno, some kind of lame prize. So hit me up when you find out.

Oh yeah, Scoota and myself had a little Skype sesh since college has split us apart. We did some working with the Stainville script and finally finished it 100%. It still has no coherent plot ('cause what fun would that be?), but there's going to be a little more story than the previous. So I guess we really don't have an excuse to not work on it except for, y'know, college and all. But, between papers and projects, I will guarantee you that I'll devote SOME time to working on episode two. I'll even start on it immediately if it turns out that I placed in the top three in Madness Day (which is really just wishful thinking. Doubt I'll even make top five. I was extremely impressed by a lot of the tributes, particularly Micmadness and The Magician *COUGHWHICHSHOULDGETFIRSTANDSECONDPRIZ ERESPECTIVELYCOUGH*)

Wow, that was one hell of a cough. Anyways, time to play the waiting game. Hope I win big.

If you nostalgia, vote 5. If you don't nostalgia, vote 5.

WATCH HAR

I felt the need to le post.

...And with time to spare, good lawdy. Gonna go nap until the 22nd now. Peace.

Turns out this'll be a little over two minutes, which I hope will be sufficient enough for you to give me a good score (and therefore a good prize, which I'm banking on, if you remember). I've got only two more fight sequences to go and then I'm done. So, here's my last screenshot. Please vote 5 when the time comes.

EDIT: I'm not very used to using a Mac yet, so please disregard the white border around the picture. Thank you. :)

I've been out of commission since Aug. 21st, but I should be animating again by the 29th. Until then, TAKE THIS!

EDIT: Mac acquired, Flash acquired. Allotting time for animation...
