Xenophobe Update, Taking Semester of School Off

Wuddup Newgrounds? Just checking in for really no other reason than utter randomness. Ummm... Some shit happened and I'm taking this semester of school off to get a full-time job for a few months, and I cancelled one project I was planning (Devil-Slayer the Game) in favor of taking it easy and focussing on job-searching while tackling -Necropolis Xenophobe- at night. This project has caught me off guard and pinched my ass at just about every turn.

The script for this movie was originally 3 pages long, and meant to be 10-15 minutes long. I decided not to overstress myself, and opted to make a 5-minute flash instead, chopping the script to one page. I just got done finishing the real-time animatic with finished audio, and that one page script rounded out to 10 minutes, meaning the original project would've been just about impossible for one flash and I am not about to make any more "episodes", fuck that. (Lawdy) You get a cookie if you followed that paragraph.

Necropolis: Xenophobe is about a subtle brand of religious persecution that takes place in Anarchistic Neo-Africa, and yes it involves Jazz and the posse from the Devil-Slayer series. But there is no pointless devil-hunting or random fruit-salad style storytelling like in my previous work. This takes place before they became generic, pointless super-human demon fighters, since the "back-story" is much more interesting. (Ugh...If I had a time machine, I'd travel back to 06 and kick myself in the teeth) I hope the project won't take too long, I'm going for simplicity and substance instead of my usual fare. I'll keep in touch.

having a job and flashin´ can either be very annoying or give you a sense of relax.

Its better than thinking of homework all day long.

still

good luck with xenophobe mista.

That's waht i thought at first, i wasn't studying, i took a job, and i thought doing flash in my free time.... LIES MAN!!! that job sucked all of my time, i wasn't able to do anything decent.... the funny thing is, i didn't even needed the job at the time, it was just for fun, i mean "fun", and to this day, im still stuck with that job, and college is about to start again... ugh... .... but is true, most of the time you need those things called jobs to survive...

...don't get me wrong, i dont hate working, im not that lazy, i just choose the wrong job at the wrong time, and it messed up my schedule pretty bad...

Well sorry for that... lets hope it goes better for you, i would like to see the new project, no matter waht you say, i still liked Devil Slayer and your previous work, so according to you this is going to be awesome....

I had to take off two semesters of college (not all at once though). I'm not the richest kid in the world, and my parents don't have the money to send me off like most parents do in my area. I pay every cent of it out of pocket. I'm just thankful they let me stay here. Otherwise I'd be in debt. Nothin' wrong with taking off a semester or two, so long as you're doing work (Which you've already said you are)

Good luck with everything man!

Hey, sorry if it seems like I stiffed you on the email, I think it didn't go through successfully. The Casting Call's still up if you wanna try. :)

I just discovered that My Sony Remastering Studio program that I use to make Nirvana sound like they're under water, records. So, now I can voice-act.
