Another Abe Animation Abound!

After taking another vacation, down to Key Largo, Florida, mixed with getting way too involved with anything Firefly/Serenity, I accomplished little this past month.

Well, that’s not entirely true. I jumped into creating the opening credits in Flash and am sync-ing it to the original 30 second score.

I thought about making the opening to fit the long version of the song, but I would probably just throw in some animation from the cartoon I’m making to fill in the gaps, which would just give away too much of the episode you were about to watch, so I will resist, for now, making the long version, but it could be something I do down the line.

it all away, but I figured showing
you all the animation is more fun.

Here is Caeser walking in front of JFK. Next to that is a clone baby in a jar, and above is a scene from the animation of Abe’s character shot.

Also recently, I bought the book, Adult Swim and Comedy. It is apparently a book used in a school class, and now I want to go to this college to take it. It’s a fairly small book, and the text is HUGE on the page. At roughly 60 pages, it does give great, although small backgrounds to the creation of some shows, which one of them is Mission Hill, which is why I bought it.The book isn’t new enough to know of the Mission Hill DVD, although it was published three months before the DVD came out, so obviously the author didn’t come to the Mission Hill fan-sites and find out that it was on the way. ¬¬ Adult Swim and Comdey Book

I’ll post more info later, but it does mention that the episodes did cost around one million dollars each, and he does mention that there were 18 episodes written, and only 13 produced.

Well, I lied earlier when I said I only bought this book for the info on Mission Hill. It also has a Angus Oblong drawn cover, made specifically for this book, which is quite humorous.

Also of note, while watching the first episode of Clone High with some new CH fans, I came upon the idea to make this shirt. Cleopatra! Comin’ At Ya! Cleo shirt

I love Mr. Butlertron without his mustache upgrade. (Watch the opening closely.)
