RicepirateHey guys! So here's the basic game plan summarized: - Gonna spend the next 6-8 months of completing the animatics (with rough sound) for 3 full 18 minute episodes. - Then start production on 2-4 minute chapters (roughly 6 for each episode). - Once all the chapters of an episode are complete, I'll release the 18 full episode. - We'll re-evaluate the plan after the 3 episodes are done.

Thank you guys so much for the support. None of this would be possible without the amazing patrons (seriously).
Knowing I was able to knock out almost 6 minutes of animation by myself in a little less than 4 months is actually on par with the timeframe I was hoping to complete with dedicated assistance. So if I ever do get to a point where I can afford to hire dedicated hands, there's no doubt chapters will be produced faster than I'd hoped (at the length they currently run). Again, thank you guys so much for your patience.

I want to thank every supporter, patron, friend, viewer, ANYone who's been waiting for some progress to drop. Thank you guys so much for your patience on this one. The following chapters are going to be much shorter, and have a much faster turnaround time...and hopefully in time, if I can get a team together, we'll move this story along much faster, as I've already got 18 chapters boarded :D, anyway... no time to celebrate. Back to work!

==============
JJBA fan-project "Blood Sun Vendetta" is underway.
I wanted to post the first-half of Chapter 001 along with a long overdue update on the project. Sound is unmixed, still missing some fx, still needs some clean up and color correction.
A project of this size is all new to me, so I really appreciate the support and patience of folks who've been following along.
Stay healthy, safe, and sane :D

With the help of Gerardo ( aka Nevarky, link below), traveled 8-days and 7-nights from San Luis Potosi to Cancun. The trip was as grueling as it was awesome, and I got about 6000 photos from the whole trip.
Thanks to my supporters on Patreon and Twitch. I know this wasn't my usual type of content. Just something a little different. This was a commission for Cherry, however I had the opportunity to make this more a comedic piece ... I dunno, just wanted to make something straight and uncynical.
My first T-shirt design goes to my biggest inspiration. 25 years I've been reading JoJo and I just wanted to make a shirt I'd like to wear myself. Hopefully some of you folks might enjoy it too.

The stream said a lot of things, but we ended up voting on "Pranks"...

In association with the awesome team at LORE to celebrate their 5th anniversary making non-stop vids for y'all!
Most of the process from script to animation was streamed on Twitch with viewers, who also were mostly responsible for the script (so that should explain a lot ... if yer actually reading this).

If you don't know who LORE is, you should, they been making stuff forever and a bunch of VAs and animators have worked with them over the years (including me).

Additional music by FearingAnimators and Youtube : No more complaintsRicepirate2014-08-01 | i made a comment on facebook/twitter about youtube and animators. people had questions, I figured I'd share. .... long live da butts.
Because this was so impulsive I forgot one of the biggest "youtube model" issues - Trickle down.
So if i make 500+ videos and if you watch and like a couple, there are 500+ more videos to watch. With animators it tends to be a lot less (less than 100). So the trickle down (the youtube-ception-factor) is a lot less, which is just math. That's just how it is, no animator can complain about it, because we just can't kick out that many videos. ok doneTIMEWASTER: Taking a DumpRicepirate2014-07-02 | A tale of betrayal.
