It’s my semester break and I haven’t done anything for Clone High since releasing that clip last update. It’s not that I don’t want to, but it has been Christmas, which brings shopping and family time, plus finding time to make money to pay for those Christmas gifts. Since I promised last update that I would update this one with another storyboard, here is one, that is half complete, but is the furthest I am right now. Enjoy, but don’t get too much information about the episode from it. Save yourself something to enjoy later.

On Amazon.com, a user “jrg” has uploaded their own customer images of the Mission Hill DVD. Here are the box case images. (By the way, I’ve been reading some comments people have had about the DVD, specifically, how there seems to be music changes from the original series on TV, and in doing so, some audio levels seem to be louder, or softer, than the current audio levels, which leads to some odd audio affects. That won’t stop me from enjoying my DVD, when I get it… finally… as a belated Christmas gift.

To prove that I have been actually doing some work, I have uploaded a ROUGH Flash scene which was originally only seen on CloneHighUsa as an extended ending to the Homecoming Episode of Clone High. Before just viewing it, I suggest that you bust out your DVD and actually watch episode 6, so you get the flow of the episode. But remember, it is a rough cartoon, so it’s not all lip-sync’d and final character art. So maybe watching the whole episode all over again just to see a 30 second clip may not be worth it, but who needs an excuse to watch Clone High? Eh? Right, I didn’t think so. [View the Deleted Scene by scrolling down this page. It's too large to fit higher on the page] The reason that it’s not finalized is that I used it as a class project for an assignment on a deadline. If it’s not too much trouble, I’ll finalize the clip and re-post about it.

I’ve done a couple more pages of storyboarding, but it has slowed down due to Final Exams week here now. I’d really like to show off some more storyboards, but I can’t find one just now that doesn’t give too much away. I’ll try to have one for next update.

Snowflake Day is upon us, and I really tried to have a good amount of Snowflake Day merchandise you can get (at CafePress prices) to celebrate with. I was only able to get greeting cards done. I’m also sorry that they weren’t done in time to send out as general holiday cards, but hey, there is no official Snowflake “Day” that we know, so go ahead and get them and send them to all your friends, and these would especially make great gift cards to go along with buying your friends copies of Clone High on DVD!

LiveJournal user “iamspecial” let us know that there are some Clone High fans working at an online T-Shirt company “Glarkware.” It’s more in the descriptions of the T-Shirts, but I’m sure you all want to get a hold of the “make-O-ver shirt”. You’ll notice that the description works exactly with the montage from Clone High episode 11. It makes me want to make something like this for the CafePress store, but written more like the description.

As we walk abroad in this big old world of ours, you’re likely to spot plenty of people who could look better than they do. It truly is the rare individual who couldn’t benefit from a makeover MAKEover, makeover MAKEover, makeover makeover MAKE-O-VER! [Edit* There was another shirt in their catalog that had the description "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabe!". It seems that these shirts have now been taken out of their catalog.]

Also from LiveJournal, user “cheshire_cat94″ mentioned that when signing up for Hotmail, you can view this image if you need help when creating a password.If your eye-sight isn’t there for you, I’ll give you the important parts. “Use punctuation and numbers to combine the initials of people or objects from a familiar group, such as your favorite athletes, friends, movies, books, or historical figures. For example; Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln, and Joan of Arc could become the password 1G2ALJA.” In my opinion that is more than just a coincidence.

After a very funny new Stroker and Hoop tonight, there was new Aqua Teen Hunger Force, where Master Shake totally said “Bling Blong” and to which the Mission Hill fans, I’m sure, all squealed in delight.And instead of getting Mission Hill for my birthday, i’ll have to wait until Christmas for my gift. I really can’t wait. My friends have also spotted me going to stores and picking up copies of Mission Hill just to hold. They have yet to prove me to be actually hugging the DVD, but swear to it.
