I'm almost done with my part for the METAL GEAR Collab. I'm aiming for a clean 30 seconds. It features Solid Snake in an arctic outpost waiting for an order to move in on an enemy base. Hilarity ensues. My friend Ed Hollis wrote it and voiced Snake. AlmightyHans voices Colonel. I can't wait to see this giant collab when it's finished.
In other news... still working on OFFICE SPIDER 5. After this, I plan on making a short cartoon to celebrate Castle Crashers completion. It'll be a form of TANKMEN, but with the CC characters. Possibly CASTLEMEN? After that, I promise, I am going to start ALEX SERYOUA episode 2. I can't wait to get my next semester in order and just enjoy a summer of flash work.
On a personal note, I plan on transferring to SCAD-Atlanta next semester. (Savannah College of Art and Design at the Atlanta location) It's only 3 hours from where I am now, but I want to study 3D animation and possibly get an internship at PIXAR after my Junior year. That is my dream job.
I will be at COMIC CON with AlmightyHans. I can't wait. I am also getting my plans together for LOLLAPALOOZA in Chicago. That will be awesome. I have a feeling this will be a good summer. Anyone got some cool plans for summer?
PS. If anyone knows/is a programmer that would be interested and willing to help make an OFFICE SPIDER game in the near future, let me know. I want to make something really fun and really funny. For more information, visit this thread. I am willing to compensate with a sum of $$$.
Yes.

Awesome man, it's my dream job to work with Pixar too. The new movie Wall-E looks really really awesome. I'm not sure about the story, but visually, it's stunning. I've always admired that about Pixar. Enough about Pixar, you're going to Comic-Con? That's pretty sweet, I want to go sometime, maybe next next summer, when I have more money, money's a little tight ATM. Castlemen sounds like it's going to be cool, can't wait to see it. What are MY plans for the summer? Meh, nothing that wouldn't be considered boring by comparison.
I don't know why I decided to leave this wall of text here for you to read, but I hope you enjoy it. I always enjoy having something to read when I make a news post.
Keep on Animating,
Jimtopia

a mans man u are. you understand what it is to post a lengthy blog post and wait on someone's thoughts. i love feedback and comments. makes me feel connected to the community of NG. thanks for ur thoughts! i hope ur summer isn't too blah. Money always determines ur memories really. Money even affects the plot of a tv show, like LOST. sucks that creative direction can't be free of currency.
