Pencilmation #6: Turtles in Time


Lost Pencilmation episode

For all of you people who have requested a reappearance of the original Pencilmation guy, I am working on finishing an old Pencilmation episode (with the guy from the first two), that I had left unfinished about a year ago. I will have it ready to watch in about a week and will release it under the mildly mysterious and overused title Pencilmation: The Lost Episode!


Sound issues…

So, after I make my Pencilmations, I usually don’t go back and watch them, but today I did and realized that the sound is severely out of sync for most of them!! (At least it is on my computer…) Anyway, this is something that I really need to fix and am working on right now. I promise!


It’s all a blur

That’s right folks, these days it’s hard to tell where one day ends and the next begins…  I have a few new Pencilmations cooking up, right around the corner. First, a new episode that I am working on, for whatever reason contains a bunch of Alice in Wonderland references, and so naturally I decided to title it, Malice in Wonderland.  Second, I came across a Pencilmation episode with the stick guy that I started a couple of years ago and never finished, so I am in the process of adding some music to that and will show everybody.

And yes, Infinity Snail will be returning a few episodes from now, I assure you.


New episodes and other stuff…

Lots of things on the brain these days….I’ve got a new Pencilmation that I’ll post on Monday. A Mickey Mouse -esque character is whipped forwards and back through time when the ever-devious pencil draws tracking controls at the top of of the page. It is my favorite so far and is entitled, Pencilmation #6: Turtles in Time.  I realize that there isn’t really a pun present in that title, though as you will see, there are turtles.  Rather, it is an homage to my favorite super nintendo game from the days of old.

Other thoughts: I am thinking about doing some Pencilmation clothing; funny little penciled scenes.  I’d love to hear anyone’s thoughts.  Another idea that popped into my head: flipbooks?

Anyway, rock and roll.


Trouble!

Man oh man…The whole site fell apart yesterday when I was trying to upgrade to WordPress 2.8. Anyway, I thought my problems were solved, but this morning I discovered that I couldn’t navigate off the front of the site without getting a 404. When will the future arrive? When can I just get up in the morning and say, “computer..website…now!” And have a beautiful website without any struggle? Soon enough I suppose…. “Computer…animation…now!” Sigh…

Anyway the point is, I think some stuff got deleted, so if you can’t find your little comment, don’t take it personally. Just come up with something better to say and say it again, and I will try to not stink at making websites.
