Production Blog 🎬: Some background characters
I'm going back through and filling some scenes. Here's a few extras i whipped up!
2019-11-22 22:55:49 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬: Sheriff Hayseed Poster!
This will be going up on Fanfiber along with the video itself. I hope you think it looks good! It's my first try at fully compositing art in a while!
The short itself it very much in the hands of VAs and Music artists right now, but I'll try to keep the work up anyway. Refining and such. Wish me luck and stay tuned!
2019-11-21 02:51:28 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬: Sheriff Hayseed Character Reveals
I made some cards to show off the characters! Obviously you patrons are a little familiar already but over the next few days ill be posting these publicly, which will be youtube and twitter's FIRST looks at Joy and Lloyd!
just tryin' to start up a bit of hype as we approach the release. EXCITING FJOUSHFSE

Production Blog 🎬: Paper City Model Super Post!
Albeit not done, here's a bunch of renders from my Blender city, now with a completely reconstructed Suction Cup Man set!!! Very exciting
2019-11-14 05:15:50 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬: Instant M&Z and SCM backgrounds!
Over the last couple days I've been playing with Blender (Todd Hayseed's voice actor is under the weather and I can't continue until he's well. Send wishes!!!) So in the meantime and furthering my studies into automating backgrounds
Above is my WIP construction of the Mike & Zach series home town, everything from color and shading down to the paper texture is accomplished in blender and can have me preparing full backgrounds in seconds!
In other news, I've decided Mike & Z...
2019-11-13 02:30:18 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬 (GIF): A big lip sync
Joy is back! And she is saying many words in the falling action. With unique mouths every scene and manual jaw adjusting, this was a task (and will continue to be. She ain't done o.o)
Production Blog 🎬: A different kinda scene
im doing some sort of frame by frame, blue print thingy. This happens during a big "AND HERE WAS MY PLAN" bit. And it wasn't actually story boarded like this! I'm just mixing it up from the puppets because i am going insane lmao
2019-11-04 18:56:51 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬: November! Where Are We?
Answer: We're goin'! The Sheriff Hayseed 10 minute short has a mere 1 minute of audio left to animate to. it's all just dialogue, some animation even cheaper.
As for other things, the Minecraft parody, Mike & Zach, and possibly Suction Cup Man are all on the back burner to avoid distractions. Minecraft Parody might see rewrites and new art style. Mike & Zach has TONS of ideas lined up, we just have to pick one to run with. But overall, All efforts are...

EXPERIMENT! 📺: Mike & Zach Cast
me and zach tried a podcast! Give it a try if you like and let us know how it is!
Also if Spotify podcasts are more your thing, Zach somehow got it on Spotify already

good things happen when you keep your puppets loose and off model
2019-10-24 14:31:35 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬: The battle is won!
Some screenies. The climax is complete! Now we face the falling action animationg (Mostly conversation), touch ups, finishing sound, and music.
Not quite in the final stretch yet but we are almost "almost done" lol

PLEASE. I reversed the saloon doors somewhere between the exterior model and the interior and I'm about to

2019-10-22 13:07:41 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬: The big fight is almost done
I have uhhhhhhh like 4 or 5 more shots to go and then the grand finale is DONE and the rest is just talking. This could be done for a December release!!!!

Production Blog 🎬: Sack Attack
more of a curtain but you know. Anyway, I think I'm finally back on my grind! Worked all day so far with little dilly dallying. Let's get it ON
2019-10-12 22:16:11 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬: Stupid fucking donkey dies
No this isn't a real frame (unfortunately)
Just a touch of fucking around as I slowly get out of my burn out. Got a bit done recently. Looking to RAMP THIS SHIT UP. LETS GOOOOOOO
2019-10-12 00:01:43 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬: Had myself a burn-out Week
Hey! You may or may not have noticed that I haven't posted for a bit, or frequently when I do. I've just been burning out a bit, so I took a couple days off. I'm feeling better and will try to resume full force! (And I did have a great time playing with Unity while on break. We'll see where that venture goes later ;)
2019-10-10 00:39:23 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬 (GIF): Battle of the Stool
FIGHT SCENES SUCK TO MAKE but i'm pretty happy with this. Definitely some more follow through and corrections to be made but hey it's 'ight.
2019-10-03 16:12:00 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬: Secret Monster Society
I guess I'm animating this right now lol. I'm just a boy on the internet having a good time
2019-09-29 20:04:26 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬 (Video): Creeper Lip Syncing
It's weird. But even with that I still firmly believe this is the best form of creeper lip syncing out there.
i mean.... look at this from Element Animation. I love them to death but....
nightmares lol
Production Blog 🎬: Todd's Erotic Chair Dance
Possibly the most complicated piece of animation in the entire short! Just a small part of the fight scene, but it's one of my favorite sequences
2019-09-25 18:28:17 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬: The Big Fight Begins
I've officially gotten into the climax fight. This scene is gonna FUCK me up lol. It's long, it's dynamic and it's fast. God save me
2019-09-24 14:56:38 +0000 UTC View PostProduction Blog 🎬 (GIF): Fun with Simulation!
This is my first try at stuff like this. I thought it might be neat (since i like doing backgrounds in blender) if I could simulate things and animate things that would be too complex to hand animate. Minecraft seemed like an easy place to experiment.

It's HERE!!!! I'm so excited to finally release this. Starting today, you can bring Suction Cup Man home!
