A post to report that there is no news to post. I’m between animation projects at school and am working on these cartoons with what little time I can. I did get that job which has me working 4 shifts in 3 days. Oh boy. But at least I’ll start making money to pay off all the ridiculous buys I make on eBay.

I’m excited for summer break so I can get on to some serious work.As previously hinted at, MissionHillOnline was able to acquire an extended-length episode of a newly discovered animatic episode 16: “CRAP GETS IN YOUR EYES” (Or, “Pretty in Pink”). The first two parts of thr ee are available on the videos page of MissionHillOnline. The side image is a Mission Hill ad that ran in a comic book back when there was advertising for it. The below storyboard has the voice lines cut off as to not give anything away. It takes place during the third act and is quite close to the end of the episode. I’d like to hear some captions from people as to what they think is being said by Gandhi. Email them here. If this goes over well, I’ll post a longer scene next time for this kind of fun.

Yes, there is a new banner at the top of the page. I am really asking all the Undergrads fans out there who use MySpace, to sign up as a friend on the Undergrads’ creators page. When Pete Williams page hits 2,000 friends, he will be divulging the appropriate email link for Cartoon Network/Adult Swim out for everyone to swarm the corporate inbox to consider funding the rest of the production of the Undergrads show. Teletoon has already said they will fund half the show, and that they want an American Broadcaster to pick up the other half.

Well, [adult swim] is really the only appropriate broadcaster, and they already share so many shows between the two networks, which makes it only more natural. My thanks to anyone who can help out.

And don’t know what all the Hoo-Haa of UnderGrads is all about? Why not get yourself a copy from amazon.com? It’s worth it, if you’re into the whole college life re-imagined through the use of magical moving pictures.

Oh, and do I even need to mention how psyched I am to see Saved by the Bell on [adult swim]. Although it has really nothing to do with it, and its just Turner Broadcasting getting more out of their owned shows while they can, I’ll be watching the show. I loved it growing up and I still will watch the reruns. Perhaps it’s just a guilty pleasure. Fine by me.

I suppose I can also do a MHCH Refuge update…

Well, I found a teensy-bit of time recently to only be able to work out one more storyboard page. I am so sad I can’t devote more time to this show, but I am really getting swamped with animation projects and film projects at my college, and I have some things in life to start saving for, so I’ve had to go and get my old job back at a restaurant. Good thing I left on good terms. But that means even less time for animation, let alone do Clone High work.

Well, if you haven’t noticed, it hasn’t really been 2 months since I’ve last updated, as it was easier to just update the forums with any news, but anyway’s, there is news to get to, so do enjoy!

The big news around here is what the tireless efforts of MissionHillOnline as to continue talks with the Mission Hill creators, and has gotten him as far as to get a lost animatic for FREAKY WEEKEND. Think of it as an apology for the poor sound conversion and missing music tracks from the DVD release. Check out the MH animatic here, and respond about it here. Once you’ve done all that, read the rest of the episode script here. It’s even possible that there could be more, but don’t get your hopes up.

While I’m on the topic of Mission Hill, it’s back on [adult swim]. The series just finished one run all the way though, and it beginning again April 2nd. The Oblongs has also been a nice addition to the line-up.

When will [adult swim] pool their money together to syndicate truly good shows, such as Clone High or The Undergrads? Why do they continue to green-light pure crap, when there are good cartoons out there. If anything pool the money together and fund Futurama. It’s what everyone wants.

Hot off the cafepress-es is the newest addition to the MHCH Refuge cafe press store. Remember, no money is made off these shirts by this site; cafepress base prices only. They are made to just enjoy the shows as long as we can. And as Dr. Zoidberg would say “I’ll take seven!”
