Bitboy

The above image was greatly enhanced by “Summerteeth” creator Erik Knutson who took my sketch and morphed it through his Flash program. It shows how much I’m getting involved with this BitBoy project!

The animatic has been finished by GIMC, the Korean partner studio, and I’ve sent along my comments. The original storyboard was too long and they did a great job of cutting it down close to the required length. Unfortunately, my comments may have lengthened it again! Casting is the next item on the list of processes to go through. It was originally thought the casting would be done out of Hollywood. Upon further study, we’re going to seek to cast all the voice talent in Seoul. Hopefully, this will give us a final product closer to the authentic Korea concept. Besides, I might get a trip to Asia out of the deal.
Once the voices are locked in, the production process picks up speed and rushes towards animation and completion. Luckily, creators Kong and Jun together with Director Choi have been working on background and character designs for the show. These elements will be necessary to move into layout and animation after Director Choi times out the final dialogue recording onto the exposure sheets.
