Well looks like all is finished and hopefully in a years time everyone will be able to see this short-film. 8 mins long with simple animation and drawings combined with a great soundtrack by Néboa (Javier Álvarez), also Brian Demoskoff gave me a good hand with the animations of the characters. A thank u to everyone that participated in this project and a special thanks to Nena & Pepa because they are always supporting me on my crazy adventures also a nice thanks to mom for saying that she like the original drawings and not the crazy 3D idea that twisted a lot of my time:)
This project started 4 years ago more or less when srMundo decided that we where going to do this animation, so I started drawing all these pictures basing them on my mom’s house in Rianxo. Once I had setup all the drawing cleaned them up etc I think a year at least had gone by. If I can remember the original drawings of Neggy and Sammy and a lightbulb was drawn in 2006 then they where processed into the computer and redrawn, the final touchups where finished around 2008. I suppose this seams a longtime for a couple of drawings but I must say in the middle of all this work I had to earn a living:)* and I also had a couple of other projects that are also on srMundo.com in between, mainly (Bro Ken).
The main problemo arrived in 2009 when things got a bit out of hand and someone came up with the idea to convert everything into 3D this caused me a big headache and a lot of work that went the wrong way and with no team on these sort of project everything becomes frustrating, (maybe in a future?) Ideas for 3D. Finally mom said that she really liked the original drawings and my headache disappeared and around September 2009 things started to come together, I sat down and decided to go back in time and re-organize the project uploaded everything to an FTP which opened the doors to my small but incredible team, Mr.B worked with me from Toronto (Canada), Mr. J – Néboa (Barcelona) and me here (SCQ) thank u internet:))) and that’s it loads of work and now the short-film is on tour…
