Clap your hands!

CLAP, people!

There I was, all excited about this great new website of mine, with it's fancy templates, and cool domain name. Now, I realise that it's the simple things that it's missing. I can't put proper links in, and the worst thing is that if I try to put in a flash of mine, it comes up as 100x100, which isn't what I want.

Guess I'll have to go back to Freewebs now. At least it does what I want....

EDIT: I have now updated the site, so it is totally Freewebs created. It looks better than I thought.

YAY! I've got myself my own site! I haven't put much on it yet...except..

AN INTERVIEW WITHThe-Swain

But yeah, I'm glad to have a site, please check it out, and give me feedback..

So what if I paid nothing?

That is all.

WAIT! No, it isn't. I'm gonna do a quick trailer for Ultimate Cliche Guide, and that should be up the end of today hopefully...

Hmm..let's see....Today I..

- Got a Garbage whistle for no reason whatsoever...
- Got a day's ban from posting in the BBS because I posted in a spam thread.....

Well, that's it really..but it's still annoying for one day...

Random note:

Could people stop calling me 'fish' or 'fishy', it pisses me off....

Since I last posted, I have done virtually nothing on Ultimate Cliche Guide, because I'm a lazy ass. It's true. There goes my hope of it being a summer assignment...

To make me even more of a Flash two-timer, I started a collab. It's the Newgrounds Intro Collab. So far I have 8 submissions and a few other people who have joined but not submitted anything.

In terms of NG standings: I have got to Level 10! I also started flagging reviews and got up to Bronze, but then something weird happened, and I went down to normal. It happened with a good few people...

EDIT: Now it's Garbage. Fuck.

Now, other news..hmm...well, it's not NG-related, but I was an extra in a film directed by Neil Jordan (Breakfast on Pluto, Intermission) and starring Colin Farrell (Phonebooth, Intermission) but it was a bit shit 'cos it rained a lot and I got really wet, but I suppose it is Ireland...

Umm....I'm working up to an epic news post, but I'm not sure what it's gonna be about yet....

And I saw the Dark Knight a week or so ago. It was so good, especially Heath Ledger as the Joker.

Wanna know how I got these scars? My father was....a drinker. And a fiend. And one night he goes off crazier than usual. Mommy gets the kitchen knife to defend herself. He doesn't like that. Not. One. Bit. So, me watching, he takes the knife to her, laughing while he does it. Turns to me and he says "Why so serious?" Comes at me with the knife,"Why so serious?" He sticks the blade in my mouth. "Let's put a smile on that face!" And..... Why so serious?

I felt that my old post was out of date, so I decided to update it, as my masses of fans would be wondering if I was really working on Ultimate Cliche Guide. Well, I can tell you that the answer to that question is a resounding YES, and to prove that, I have included a picture at the bottom of the post. It's going along just fine: I've finished the intro, began the proper thing, got all the lines from my VAs, which I am all impressed with and yeah...done quite a lot...

August is gonna be quite a busy month for me outside of animation, but I'll try to press on with UCG despite whatever the calendar throws at me...I would like to get it finished before I have to go back to school.

I have also uploaded Musical Men. It hasn't got a very good score, but I like it all the same, so I'm keeping it.

The virus is out! I have my computer back! I can now start on Ultimate Cliche Guide!!

Also, I'm level 9 today!

To celebrate the return of my tablet and mic, and all things decent, I have decided to draw a quick, really weird image....it's like a face, but it's not....it's a pile of green slime and some other stuff...I dunno really...

There is a woman coming to fix my computer tomorrow morning (about 3am by LA time, and 11 pm by New Zealand time....)so we must have hope!

Also, I'm pretty much finished casting for my upcoming animation: Ultimate Cliche Guide. Still a few more roles to cast, but also have a audition tapes to go through as well, which I can't do at the moment, cos the sound on my laptop doesn't work.....well, it does, but only when it feels like it, and it's not in the mood now....

Note-worthy VAs I have include Rina-Chan, Danielle McRae (another pro VA (I think) in CA), and Echranet (my first application was from him)......

Looking for 8 VAs for animation, current working title: Ultimate Cliche Guide

It's basically a parodical animation using as many movie cliches as I can.

Below are the character details. They're fairly non-precise, just a rough idea to work around.

Emily
American (blond) woman, age between late teens and early 20s.
No. of lines: 3
Sample line: Oh my God, we're all gonna die!

Sam
American (black) man, age around 30. Deep voice.
No. of lines: 6
Sample line: Guys, I know what to do!

Arnold
American old man, any age over 60 (not looking for 60-year-old VA). Perverted
No. of lines: 1
Sample line:Tell me, ya like tits?

Dr. Sabreleg
Eastern european (Russian) evil genius type thing. Age approx. 40
No. of lines: 8
Sample line: This is your new pilot, Dr. Sabreleg. Prepare to DIE!

John
American hero. Like an American James Bond. Age approx. 20
No. of lines: 14
Sample line: OK, I think we should storm into the cabin, and fight them! Who's got a gun?

Stewardess
American, or latin American, or anything really, stewardess. Any age.
No. of lines: 2
Sample line:Would youlike anything?

PM me if you're interested with a demo reel or a recording of one of the sample voices you want to do. Feel free to do as many of those voices as you want, I'm unlikely to get 8 VAs....Deadline is a month from now, so that's 10-8-08, or if you're American: 8-10-08

BE WARNED: The characters Emily, Sam, and John swear in their parts, if that puts you off....

In other news, I still have that freakin' virus!

Bad news.

My computer with all my flashes in it has a virus. A bad one. You may have heard of it: XP Antivirus 2008. It's basically a rogue Antivirus program with, instead of deleting your viruses, installs them...useful, eh?

So you may not be seeing any animations til thats gotten rid of....I'm going to bring it to the nearest computer shop within the net week to fix it, so maybe it'll be fixed fairly soon....

Meanwhile, I have no real projects going on at the moment, but I'll tell you when I do....

And I'm still looking for one of those $100 giveouts that Tom's running...so Tom, if you're reading this, I vote everyday....
