Bill Burr

After finishing Running I decided I wanted to do a short video. I listen to Bill Burr's Podcast and thought it could work as an animation. I listened to a few older episodes and picked a bunch of snippets I thought were funny or intriguing. I refrained from picking stuff over 2 minutes long. There was a lot to choose from and I decided to go with this segment because it's something I think we all do. It pretty much took me 2 weeks to animate the video, I did it very quickly.

I only did a few preliminary sketches for Bill.

I enjoyed making the animation, I may select another segment in the next few weeks to animate. My personal goal is for Bill to see the animation and mention it on his podcast and then to have me animate him talking about it. I haven't really gone out of my way to send it to him but I will later this week.

Aside from the Bill Burr short what is coming next? Well, I have a few Directionless animations that I'm working on but I do not have a time frame for their releases. I think because my last two longer shorts were Directionless I want to spend time animating something else. The comic is still being posted 3 days a week!

I am working on a video but it's it's going to be quite awhile until I finish it. I am going for a much more detailed look and a very intense story. I finished the storyboard and at the moment I am just fine tuning all the details. This one is going to be in production for a long time so I don't think I'll finish it until June or even July. Then again, by this point last year I was working on Way West which didn't get finished until August. It's possible I'll figure out a way to produce the movie very quickly and finish it before I realize it.

You'll recognize the character on the bottom right from a previous post. I sometimes take characters and swap them into different projects. I don't feel her art style suits the story

So I don't really know what will be my next release. I personally want to make another stick figure animation but not a music video type one. We'll see. I also have 4(maybe 5) freelance commercials I'll be doing so organizing my time well will be very important!

I will say that I want to release another video in April nomatter what. Even though I missed January of this year I think it'd be good to release a new animation each month!
