What? There's going to be a movie? I know that's what you were thinking and yes there will be...just not a Hollywood style movie with big star actors or anything like that. Before dropping out of college I was in a 3D Animation class and I still like to dabble in animation, although these days it's mostly 2D. So, I've decided to make California Bound into an animated movie for my friends and family to enjoy if they so wish. It's something to fill my days, test my animation skills and it'll also challenge me to make a full movie animation (Longest animation i've ever made was 3 minutes long). I'm looking forward to making it, I'm already starting to work on the Storyboards for the first little bit. Tomorrow I'm going to start the animating part of the process and hopefully I'll have a few minutes of animation done by the end of tomorrow.
But to have a full movie, I need a full novel. I'm about to finish the second of the twelve points of the plot thing and I'll have just over 10k when I'm done. I was going to go back to Love, Life and Friends but I think I'm going to stick with California Bound for the moment. I'm trying to find a piece of music to open the film with while I sketch out the scenes, haven't found the perfect song yet but I do have a song that I can use if I don't find the perfect one. I think the animation is going to take me all year to complete, it's not an easy process and it takes a heck of a lot of planning and then I have to find music, sound effects, voices, etc. I found out yesterday that it takes the team of writers/animators/actors that work on The Simpsons 9 months to make 1 episode. So a huge team take 9 months to do 30 minutes...I'm one person going for a movie length in a year...talk about crazy!
The year's looking better already :P
