HOPPER DEMO from Loogaroo on Vimeo.

JACKIE

I remember back in 2005, Mick talked to me about this song that he wanted to animate. I know he was pecking at it here and there and now, here it is. Formed to a delicious white head and ready for a poppin.

Fun stuff!

CLOGGIN ALONG

It's been a long time coming, but we're making headway on our property Shadowboy. Mick and I have been tweaking away in the midnight hours with all the new materials.

I hope to show you the fruits of said labour in the upcoming weeks/months/years... ...for now, check out some of micky's stills from the demo.


Snuggles,

BRATWURST!

A short cartoon by Mick Harrison with me doing some crazy tranny singing. Fun!



Mick did all the art an animation (don't let it go to his head) and Trimedia out of Moncton New Brunswick did the music.

I hope we get to do more!

SHADOWBOY UPDATE

As some of you know Mick and I are working on a pilot together, while he's vacationing here in Canadia. It's SHADOWBOY!

A few months ago we wrote a 7 minute script and started to cast all the voices only to realize that the star Shadowboy had about 3 lines and was in the pilot for a mere 3.23 seconds. So we re-wrote the script and then shelved it for a bit to work on other rubbish. But he's leaving again soon, vacation over! - so we gotta get back on it!


In recent weeks Mick and I are back at it. Mostly Mick as it's his creative force that's executing all the stunning visuals that are in shadowboy. Today, I wanna show off a bit of what he's up to.

Check out this delicious background action.


Mick was complimented about his colour theory the other day and he said "what colour theory, I just keep changing it all till I like it." - guess that is truly what it's all about.

This was a first stab at the character line up. It's changed since, however I believe Shadowboy was the only character to remain the same. The chief looks completley different now as does Big Toe. More pics to come soon.

You should see this shot animated, it's tastey!

Love this beach scene, check out that crazy road inside the villa. Freaky!

This is also a crazy shot. Shadowboy is going to have some real forced perspective shots.

Here's a little lick of the script.

Narrator

The city of Brightside. Population, mostly people. People with an illusive and ever present force for good. A guardian, an unflinching helper, a hero…. a stylist.

[Montage of SHADOWBOY about his work. Throws back teddy that falls from a baby’s pram. Shoves untucked shirt back into arse end of fat mans pants.]

Shadowboy

It isn’t easy being all those things…especially that last one

(Looking at his tucking in hand)

Narrator

Yes the city of Brightside of course is also home to that other side of the coin... the villain... the miscreant... the baaaaaaaaddie!

(cut to FLUGELBINDER walking up dock with large box on his back. He puts it down and wipes brow then addresses narrator)

Flugelbinder

Ya ya it sure isn’t easy being the rotten element either

Big Toe

Who are you talking to Flugelbinder?

Flugelbinder

Ermm… this box. here have a word yourself I hope it fits ze bill

Big Toe

I know it will, do you realise what I….

Flugelbinder

Ya that’s great… well must be going… goodbye darlinks

(jumps into the sea and swims away)

Dave

What is it boss?

Big Toe

It’s a Gravity Propostulator Dave

Dave

What’s it do?

Big Toe

It does this

(Presses button, Dave floats up into the air.

Dave

Oooooooooooo

Big Toe

It also makes delicious toast… here you go Not Dave

(presses button and toast shoots into Not Dave’s mouth then turns off machine. Dave hits floor with a right whack)

Tune in next week, there's more to come!

FLASH TICKLETOPS FROM MICK HARRISON

Masking Tutorial to prevent ballzups from new coming flash type gentlemen.

A thirsty fellow popped into a tea shop and demanded refreshment.

The owner gave him a cup. 'this cup is empty said the man, what use is that?'

the tea shop owner said 'without the emptiness the cup has no use'.

'More buns please' said an elephant at table four

goodbye my darlings!

Mick.
