Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

Austin and I have made a lot of progress on the story arch and the events that take place in the upcoming series ALEX SERYOUA. I have the entire cartoon outlined, including the very end. I've also been making music choices, which will include several songs from Half-Life 2, Portal, Radiohead, and perhaps Muse.

I have the aliens design settled and yesterday I made a concept drawing of the opening scene.

We've also decided to have Alex record her experiences in a blog throughout the series. This blog will be an actual blog accessible on the internet. I want to have an interactive side to the cartoon. The next month will be spent designing future characters and animating Episode 1, as well as writing the overall script.

Very nice. I like the alien-ness of everything, how it looks semi-organic. That blog part sounds cool, too. Its gonna be a good movie.

I'm glad you think so. The blog will open several weeks before the cartoon starts. There are things in it that take place before the series premiere. I'll have a link to that at some point.

also, do you use a wacom, or do you draw and then scan and go over it? just wondering.

PERHAPS Muse...Perhaps, Sir? You gotta have Muse! Nah I'm sure whatever you choose will fit great, the art looks awesome. But Muse does always add something extra. Also I think the weekly episode thing is a cool Idea so take your time. Good Luck with the rest. The E-Surance commercials Rock! And so will this.

I'm going away from the look of those commercials. but I will say that originally the face was inspired. so now i have the final face from a few alterations. I'm glad you think the weekly episode thing will work. I want it to have a TV show appeal.

That is pretty awesome. I am really excited about her recording her experiences in the blog which can be accessed by everyone. It is making the series ever so interesting and unique.
