Just started - doing a classic that will remain nameless until someone guesses it. The first storyboard should all but give it away.

Story Boards condensed into scenes to save bandwidth.

First group of images for the Cabin Scene. :D

My first thought was "Steamboat Willie". LOL! That's an old one.

Bingo! We have a winner.

Great Guess Frank. :)

I'm remaking "Steamboat Willie" in my own style and lack of talent. :D

Will be a procedural animation with maybe a few "boned and skinned" characters in there. :)

Nothing like the original, but nothing like using an original to learn from. :)

Sounds like fun! Will this be a Cali-gallery entry?


I think S.W. was one of the first anims (if not the first) with sound. So the only sound clip you need is some whistling, right? ;)

My whistle isn't as wet as it used to be.

I may do it synth style in midi. :D

Dunno if it will be a Cali-gallery entry. Depends on the quality and the length.

The original I think, is seven minutes or so.

Steamboat Willie set a lot of standards, will be tough to match them. :)

Second General Storyboard item - that will keep me busy for awhile, figuring out these two clipped scenes from the storyboard.

No modeling to speak of, just using primitives to get an idea what type of style I want to use.

Naw, was putting storyboard in a single format, then real life called - haven't gotten back to it yet.

I am definitely learning something from watch this! ^_^

I too find harking to the classics extremely useful ^_^

Not much progress of late, but did manage to tweak out a few for the next part of the story board.
