SFX + Music

Just today, I started using Audacity. I've had it on my computer for a long time now, but since my parents went to the football game in San Diego, I decided to spend the day recording some sound effects for the cartoon. I've been messing around with Audacity to edit all the SFX, and it's pretty fun.


P.S. Merry late Christmas!!!

P.S.S. Listen to some Metallica, won't you?

Storyboards in Progress!

Dang, I forgot to post this earlier!  I finished compositing my final film, but I'm not sure whether to upload it.  If I decide to, I'll post a link.  Aaaannnd on Thursday, my animation class is having a potluck before we head to the library for the premier of our animations. =D  Meanwhile, my parents are going to the Mark & Brian Christmas Show at the Nokia Theater that day.  My dad bought all three of us tickets before knowing that I couldn't go. u_u

Also, I'm finally going to continue storyboarding my GtM episodes.  Once the first two episode's storyboards are done, my partner-in-crime Roy Hunter Julien is going to do the backgrounds.  Then, we can start hiring voice actors for Giovanni and Strider. =D  I can't wait for that!  Til then, I have to practice Ghosteh's voice, and Roy's brother Merryll will be composing the music.  Okay then, see you guys next time!

Final Film's Animation DONE

Okay guys, I just finished shooting the animation for my final film at school.  The teacher, and a few people who saw the playback, really liked it.  I did too, but some of the timing is a bit off on some frames.  Oh well...overall, I'm happy with it.  December 7th is the date I signed up for to scan the backgrounds and add sound, so I'll upload it then.  Now I'm off to eat and make up for lost sleep.

Basilisk Radio

I'm putting together a "radio" segment where I will be posting audio clips of things such as my voice acting samples, original music for GtM, radio shows featuring all of my characters, voice acting bloopers from the entire GtM cast, and more.  I'm still developing it though, and once I get Ghosteh's voice down, I'll be able to post something. =D  Wish me luck!

Going to start soon!

Hello... I decided to bring back this old account to record the progress of my short animation series, "The Tales of Giovanni the Manticore."  Right now, though, I'm working on my final film for animation class, so once that's all done then I will finally be able to continue GtM's storyboards.  I've been working on three scripts at once since January of this year (I completed them in October) and finished writing out a couple of storyboards.  Yeah, I write all the action and dialogue first so I get the pacing right and then draw the pictures.  I don't know why...I just tend to work out of order all the time.  Well, til next time...I'll get some concept art up soon!
