Pencil’s down, for the Storyboards are Complete

Published by Scott under MHCH Refuge

Although I don’t have any scans to prove it, go ahead and believe me when I say that the Clone High Storyboards for Episode 14 are done. Tomorrow, I plan on scanning in all the shots (which came in totaling over 400 images), and creating a pre-animatic, for my own benefit for early timing issues, and hopefully over the weekend, I can get most of the voices recorded and input them onto the animatic. If not recorded, then perhaps schedule them in. Also, I won’t be showing or hosting the completed animatic here, as to not ruin the final premiere, but I am feeling really great about the whole episode.

I’ll be posting back here soon when I have some nice images to show off and maybe some voices to throw at you.

Pre-production to start, again

Published by Scott under Clone High,Mission Hill

I am finally at the end of my semester. So many art projects later, I am relieved to have quite a break ahead of me. A break filled with art projects that I give myself, and not ones I’m told to do. Projects that I care about, such as, oh I don’t know, Clone High episode 14. It’s my first project to tackle and accomplish. Next up are the Mission Hill episodes. I probably won’t do as an extensive job with storyboarding the Mission Hill episodes, to speed up production, with stick figures acting in the small squares.

I didn’t get any responses to the caption contest. Shame on you all. Well, alright, perhaps I didn’t give a good layout with enough action for a proper caption contest. We can try it once more with more scenes in the next update.

I was able to add Clone High avatars to the forums here, because of the hard work by Almost_October, from the CH LiveJournal. Get yours today!

I recently added a new song in the Clone High music downloads, known to some as the Benny Hill theme, it is actually Boots Randolph performing his song, Yakety Sax. Classic music for any ridiculous chase scene you may encounter.

For all you U.S. Clone High fans wanting to help push for a U.S. release, you could go here at Amazon and sign up to notified if and when the release is done. By doing so, it also adds to a tally of how many people are awaiting the DVD, and Amazon forwards the information to the production company. Do your part. Sign up everyone you know.

In cartoon news, Home Movies – Season 4 has been released on DVD, and currently comes with an extra cd including music from the series. Home Movies Season 4 DVD
And of course I can’t bring up DVD’s without mentioning that The Venture Brothers is coming so soon to DVD, I’m giddy. Along with the well-deserved new season starting within a month, it is indeed a good time for Venture Brothers fans. Venture Brothers 2 DVD

Only a couple more days of class and exams left, and then I can spend so much more time on getting these cartoons done for the fans. As much fun as they are to do, it is becoming a bit of a joke towards how long they’ve been prolonged. I hope to have an image-filled update come next update. Thanks for sticking with MHCH Refuge for all your soon-to-be resurrected cartoon needs.
