Bongo Drummin' - Finished
First piece of finished animation!
2022-02-28 23:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostCharacter design: Poet 2
Designed a minor character in "Drumbeat". She was voiced by Ashley Woods, who gave her a fun Valley Girl voice, so I tried to come up with a design that suits it.
Production's underway on the cartoon! Getting an animatic done, and certain scenes are animated.

ANIMATION: Nyan Day (2/22/22)
Something for 2/22/22. In Japan, 2/22 is Cat Day because the Japanese word for two, "ni", sounds similar to how a cat's meow is written in Japanese, "nyan".
Well, speaking as a native Japanese speaker it's a bit of a stretch, but whatever. Any excuse to animate cats!
Animatic: Sacre bleu!
Starting working on the animatic for the next "Fuzzy Princess" cartoon! Voice by Ty Konzak.

Going over voices for the next animation
I would go over each line and save the best takes as wav files. I would label each file on the storyboard so I know which file to load when animating.
PK-1 meaning "Princess Kat, line 1", for example

Ty Konzak - Kuma, Judge 2, Poet 1, Poet 3, Morcelo
Michael Malconian -...
Ride on Felicia storyboards 56-63 (END)
Last set of pages! If you read the comic, this one lifts a lot of ideas from it, although I changed the ending a tad. Hope you enjoyed! Looking forward to seeing how this translates to animation.

Ask a Cat #3 Finished!
Wanted to let everyone know that I have finished animating "Ask a Cat #3"! Originally I was planning on releasing each segment as standalone, but I realized it works better if they were grouped together as a collection, so that's what I'm gonna do. Will still try to do more "Ask a Cat" shorts on a consistent basis, though.
First off is the thumbnail for the video, which is set to come out...

Kick that jerk's butt!
There were several dialogues recorded for "Katrina" that never got used in the finished cartoon.
This was one of it. I liked it enough that I decided to animate it as a standalone clip, though.
Chiro voiced by Aimee Smith.
