voicemail: no one has an answering machine anymore

hey dames and dudes,
here's a short film for ya:

http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/639868

it's about answering machines, the 80s, relationships, and love. it stars the colors red and blue. it's my entry for the open round of nata, and i want you, you specifically, to be the very first person to watch it. unfortunately that's, like, not possible anymore probably. you can still watch it though.

there's a lot i wish i could have done differently, but i only started on it last friday. cut me some friggin slack, geez.


for any animators interested in photoshop animation, I think I'll do a write up about how I made the short film once I can do another blog post. It'll probs include what's nice about using photoshop, what's annoying about using photoshop, links to some excellent photoshop tutorials that I'd be nowhere without, and I'll even make you guys a snack-pack filled with some of the film's photoshop files under a CC license that you can use for whatever. It'll be brimming with goodies.

As I mentioned on my review, I'm looking forward to your post on PS animation'!. Sometimes Flash gets a bit limited when you want to use different 'brushes' or color treatments, so it's cool to know the alternatives.

Brilliant voice work supporting a beautiful script.

Well done man.

Hey man, your entry was incredible. Really look forward to your post on how you created it in photoshop, you have a really unique style and want to develop my own! :)

Thanks! And don't worry about style all that much. It's something that just comes as you amalgamate all the things and artists you like into your own work. Style is really just your own personal mishmash of what you enjoy. It takes a while, but things come together eventually
