Wow, its been a while since I've updated this thing. School kicked my ass these past two semesters but it is finally DONE! I survived and enjoyed my freshman year at Michigan. Even though the academics kicked the shit out of me I can't wait to go back! I made great friends and discovered many things about myself that I could have never discovered before. College does change you into [hopefully] a better person and it's only been the first year! I wonder how I'll feel after three more!

Anyways, one negative thing about college was that I got NO time for flash, at least no time for working on it. I came up with many ideas, wrote most of them down, even wrote a plan for a few scripts and all, but very little time to open up Flash and get to work. The only noteworthy artistic accomplishment I made was making a research poster for a research project with InDesign (which by the way, I have fallen in love with). That was a fun experience.

But on to what my plans are for summer besides working as a receptionist again. I've made a production schedule for at least two movies, a collaboration (more info below) and plans for reading about Actionscript 3.0 and C++. So far putting these on a calendar have helped get most done and I hope that continues for another three to four months.

COLLAB

I am organizing a Halloween collaboration off of Newgrounds due to the rules for posting a collab and I am looking for people who may be interested. The collab deals with how Halloween changes for people as they grow older and has ten parts. There are currently five animators on board and I hope to get five more. If you're interested post below or message me and I'll send you more information on it.

ANIMATION

As I previously said, I am working on two animations this summer. Both are comedies, both stupid, but something fun to do. The featured voice actor in both is my good friend and oh-so-funny man YungJazz. Be sure to watch for his new movie which could be out...well...I have no idea, but just keep an eye out for it! He's cooking up something special for you! I hope to have my animations done within the next three months, but with working for both parents, we'll see.

NEW ART!

I posted some new art yesterday. It's called Mexican Sunset. Check it out if you get the chance! Comments and critiques are always welcome.

That's all I have to say right now. I gotta get back to work.

dirtshake out!
