6 Monsters

So we recently got a short test of our segment in 6 MONSTERS and “gulp” never posted it. In fact, the whole segment has been completed by YESON. The same studio that did BRONK and BONGO and they did a stunning job translating my poor chicken scratches into a coherent and colorful feast for the eye.

Alright, let’s do a quick shout out to some of the peeps involved. The backgrounds and props were designed by JIM (I’m not) Worthy and the BG’s were colored by Dazzlin’ DAN CHESSER. All of the segments were directed by ROB RENZETTI of TEENAGE ROBOT fame and who has a name that sounds like a pasta dish.” I’ll have the RENZETTI please.”

CLICK HERE to see the test animation. Sorry no sound, but feel free to make up your own dialogue. It couldn’t be worse than ours.

Slogginly yours, Manny and Alan

With the recent post of some Fanboy animation, I thought we’d better put up some more of our stuff as well.

HERE is another final shot from our piece. We stressed for quite a while as to how to handle the effect of Gailard’s hand phasing into the water fountain. We thought about a spectral mist, then a flash of light, then maybe some sort of ectoplasmic goo release (yuck!), before we settled on the more subtle effect you see in the clip.

It happens so fast, and the effect is not the focus of the action, we think it works. What do you think?
