400 (the sequel to 300)...

As you can see from this badge I have my work is some of the first up on the new 4mations.tv website set up to exclusively show animations, like YouTube with bouncers blocking sneezing pandas.

This is my page on the site, not much on at the moment but I'll add some more when I return from Scotland - http://www.4mations.tv/ChrisWright.

Once more unto the breach!

A wondrous place of moving images and some slower pictures too.


*(also known as my website, featuring animations, illustrations and a few surprises).

What is this nonsense?

Well, I meant to draw swimmerman but it's been a while and this appeared instead...


...then I tried again and failed, so I thought I'd draw something to do with Lost, just as I started Hurley he morphed in to Jabba...


...come to the shows, the Playhouse in Norwich this Sunday night and next Wednesday for the NSAD Opening Night, then on the 8th July the London show (more details in lower posts).

The End.

Or is it? Well, this project is done and dusted, my time at NSAD is drawing to a close and I'll be leaving Norwich at the end of July.

There are still a few things left to do of course;
- find a job
- think about an MA
- apply for an MTV thing
- start earning to pay back my student loan
- design and make a website to display my work
- play on my PS2 (I bought 4 for £10 today at GameStation!)
- spend time with Bianca when she visits and travel with her
- pack up all the stuff and throw half of it away to move out

...and probably a good number of other things to boot, but for now just chilling out, maxing, relaxing, all cool.

Still. Not. Finished.

This is near enough the sum total of today's process...

Swim in a deep sea of blankets.

Oooh, ahhh, that's how it always starts. Then later there's running and screaming.



Seriously I drink so much water that it's a danger to others.



Sentinel: Stand aside, I must apprehend that mutant.
Gambit: Hey! Apprehend this!
[charges a card]



Must be a spatio-temporal hyperlink.

Logan and his hotdog.

Well, after trying to load this onto GoogleVideo and it seemingly failing despite it's assurances that it hadn't I decided to try to just load straight into Blogger, and that worked ~ woohoo!

Anyway, long time, no write, I know... I have been getting on with work mostly, today I recorded some sounds and learned a bit more about Logic (thanks to the lovely John) and last night I drew these guys...



initially it was just Fat/Batman, and then I figured Wolverine would be funny large and in his classic costume, then I needed a third one and since I didn't fancy drawing Spiderman's webbing on his costume I figured Superman would do for now. I might draw more, oh, and they were all done without sketching, just using the Wacom tablet entirely!

Look at me, paperless...

I've booked in to various rooms for more drawing and recording for the first half of next week, Tuesday's going to be VERY busy, with drawing/flash/crit/recording!!!

All in all, it's going well, I mean, clearly in my mind I have enough time to postulate on what superheroes would be like with a little less exercise in their regimes.

Treeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

This morning these are my efforts, I'm quite pleased with how it's gone, still need to add a reaction and also the hand pushing the tree top.

What if I say I'm not like the others?

Work? Yes, I have been doing work... but, I have also been spending time with a certain ladyfriend, continuing to get to grips with the wacom tablet and meeting a lovely man called Tim Hunkin who makes some fabulous coin-op machines that sometimes feature silly little stop-motion animation similar to my 'A Garden Called Panic' so hopefully I'll meet him again in the future.

This week though I have been doing a few more bits, including this ladder bit from the Heaven segment, what do you think?



Possibly too much movement on the horizon line of the sea I think, and I'm not sure about the birds yet either, but the movement on the swimmerman's climbing is decent enough.

Right, considering I meant to do a lot of work today but various things keep stopping me I'm heading home to use the wacom there as I think today it will be easier to do that (also persuaded the DV technicians that it made sense to have the wacom drivers permanently on these computers - thank goodness, see Bianca something good came of it all!!?)
