Next Animation

So with the completion of "Must Have Done Something Right" comes the question, what's next? I have a number of projects raring to go so let me list them here. It'll be interesting to see what does get made.

Directionless - Pilot/Series
Okay, this has been in the works for a very long time. Over a year now. A month ago I wrote a working outline for the series and since then have been piecing it together when I could. Now with Must've Done Something Right Done I can move onto other projects and I will give Directionless more attention. The first episode still isn't written. It's about halfway done, with the rest summarized out. I will still edit it down tremendously. I will most likely release the "intro" to the series a month or so ahead of the episode itself. I said my goal for the first episodes release is May in a post on Directionless and that remains the same. I'm planning to do 5 episodes. I haven't decided on a style of animation, but it will be something simpler than what I have been doing so I can make more of it. It will be more focused on witty writing and characters rather than perfect animation. I will probably write an in-depth look at what I hope directionless to be as well as production updates on it.

Night Light - Sister Sisters
So I mentioned this in a previous post. I am still really interested in making this movie. It follows a shy girl as she ventures into the underground new york city club life and becomes a slut. I've wanted to take some characters from un-used videos and stick them into the movie. I would love to be able to do a style simliar to this video by David Ochs.

I also would like to mix in 3D animation alongside the 2D. This would be a very big project and take me many months to complete. I've started the storyboard for it and hopefully will finish it sometime this week.

Burds (tentative title)
This is a short movie I storyboarded today. It's about two birds who bolt infront of cars to try to impress a lady bird. Short. Fun. And Stupid.

Kitty (tentative title)
This would just be another short. I had storyboarded a scene where a cat was watching a nature documentary on tv and pretended it was a lion and slashed a couch. The owner put the cat outside and I never progressed further in the plot than that. I think it might be something fun to elaborate on.

Tim Minchin
As of right now, this video is canceled. There is a small chance I may animate an individual sequence from it for fun though (20 seconds or so).

That all I can think of for now. Of course more ideas will come to me. It's possible I'll get some inspiration for an idea tomorrow, ya never really know with this kind of thing. I also have a large collection of storyboards and ideas I never used. I might just open up a file and want to work on it. But as of right now, Directionless is priority, followed by Night Life and then whatever else I decide to do.
