BLUE RAPIDO

PAPER TEST

NEED TO MAKE SURE DARKEST DARK STAYS AT BLUE. SO I'LL HAVE TO GET COMFORTABLE WITH AN EFFECT THATS NOT 'MULTIPLY' (CUS BLUE AND THE UNDER-ORANGE EQUAL BROWN, YUK). KNOW SOMETHING THAT COULD WORK?

FUCK IT, IM DOING CAMP MCCOOL ON PAPER

MINUS THE RAPIDOGRAPHS THOUGH. I THINK THE TOON WOULD LOOK BETTER WITH SOME REAL PENCILS UNDERNEATH SOME WACOM COLOR. SOUNDS TASKING. AND IT IS. BUT CAMP MCCOOL WILL HAVE TO BE FAIRLY LIMITED, ANIMATION WISE, IF I WANT TO MAKE IT A SERIES. SO NOT TOO MANY DRAWINGS.

ON THE PHONE WITH MY BROTHER THE OTHER DAY, WHO IS HELPING ME WRITE SOME SCRIPTS OUT OF CALIFORNIA. DISCUSSED HOW CHARACTERS WOULD FREQUENTLY BREAK INTO "DEPRESSING MUPPET SONGS". THINK KERMIT'S NEPHEW ROBIN, OR THE SONG "SAYING GOODBYE" FROM MUPPETS TAKE MANHATTAN.

WHO'S GOT THE RASH?

BGOSH DEMO- HURRICANE WILL COME

CAMP ACTIVITES TO DO

Fun with flash(?). Really hating the vector garbage underneath my drawings, but there aren't a whole lot of options if I want to make CAMP MCCOOL a speedy, efficient, hand drawn web-toon. I could spend a pretty penny of a little app called 'TV Paint", draws like photoshop, animates like flash. Or I could just sit down and figure out how to keep my vector drawns purty.

AN EPIC TALE

BGOSH- LITTLE FINGERS DEMO (NEW, VERY NOT DONE YET)

(BGOSH at Bellefont Cafe' 2004, Wilmington DE, left to right, Me, Sam Williamson, Alex Valleyjo)

SO WE GOT THE BAND BACK TOGETHER. BGOSH IS PLAYING SHOWS AGIAN (ME, SAM WILLIAMSON AND A ROTATING CAST OF HUGGABLE MUSICIANS). FOR NOW JUST A COUPLE SHOWS IN DE. BUT WE'RE CROSSING OUR FINGERS FOR A MINI TOUR, SOME NEW YORK SHOWS (I HAVE TO GET OFF MY ASS ON THAT FRONT), AND A WHOLE MESS OF NEW RECORDINGS.

THIS POST IS MORE SO A DISTRACTION FROM FREELANCE WORK I SHOULD BE DOING (BIG SUPRISE), BUT I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE NEAT TO COMPILE SOME OF THE COVERS WE RECORDED OVER THE YEARS. I PROMISED I WOULDNT GET NOSTALGIC ON THIS BLOG, BUT FRESH RECORDINGS OF SONGS ARE SO HARD TO PLUCK OUT OF ME THESE DAYS. PLUS I THINK THESE ARE JUST A PLAIN OL GOOD TIME:
