Dragon Ball Live Action

2008-05-24T20:41:00.010+08:00

Do you have one of those things in your life where you just want to ignore and pretend it's not real until shit hits the fan? You know like, school assignments, chores, global warming and stuffs..? Well, I have been following news about this live action movie for Dragon Ball since 2000 (eventhough that teaser poster was a sham) and still pray that it's not real ("De-Nile" is not just a nice restaurant in Sunway Pyramid). Ladies and gentlemen, the shitzle just hit the fanitzle! For reals!

*Edit* Thanks to Anonymous, the original source is here, in Dragonball - The Movie site. So now you can strike out that naughty manga site I got it from heheh..

Is that Emma Rossum? And what the hell is Chow Yuen Fatt doing in there??

And I remember being duped during highschool with this piece of work (the rest is in YouTube. Look it up):

I'm almost done with them werks. So, this is a teaser of what I'm going to do next in this transitional period. Actually, I've been working on it since I was doing my internship, but it was put in the backburner for a loong long while. Why 70's shoujo style? Because I can...
Actually, there's a funny story behind why I'm making this in shoujo style, but let's save that for later.

Colour Tests

I know this is a bad idea to change colour scheme at the end of the production, but since I’m using ToonBoom, no worries! ....I hope...

I've decided to stick with this one:

Animation Progress.

More new animation progress that I did. I can see it’s coming along nicely. I’d prefer to find a place to host these .swf files for free. In the mean time, it’s going to be zipped and filed in sendspace.<--click here or click on the image and it will send you to Sendspace.

This was done in Yahoo! Doodle. With mah shorty, Shannon.

This is the picture that starts it all. Larrymon, Doraemon's other brother. He dragged his ghetto-ass all the way from Compton, with his bad-ass attitude to show all you homies what it's all about, aaaight? Playah! Word.

Animation Test

2007-11-05T14:40:00.000+08:00

This was done quite a while back (after Heroes season 2 premier, to be exact). It's a straight-ahead animation, so you can see I'm just winging it!

Enjoy!

Doryaaa! Yotsuba!

Even the cute Yotsuba-chan can't escape it. Don't mess with this 5-year old ticking bomb.

Am I Getting Fat?

2007-11-04T22:38:00.000+08:00

Done in pen and watercolour on paper

People in my neighborhood now are so scared of their own shadow that I can't go jogging anymore. The only safe place I can do this is within campus. During my internship, people get to see my steady transformation into Jabba the Hutt.

The japanese writing says "moero!" loosely mean membara! or bersemangat!

It's a buffet of manliness, served on trays of masculinity.

I am trying to get fat people drawing right. Wonder Woman's not fat, but it looks like her costume is riding up. Even superheroes have wedgies.

The Executive Cut

2007-11-01T23:12:00.001+08:00

This is the approved story:

"The Executive Cut"

A big-shot lady goes into a very posh hair saloon greeted by a flamboyant hairstylist named "Manja". So Manja asks what style she wants, then she says, "Manja, I want an executive look. Give me the Executive look"
Puzzled, Manja tried all styles: lates styles from Paris, latest styles from milan, latest from New York, Tokyo, The 80's, .... but the lady is not please.

with a stroke of serendipity, Manja saw a nice lady with a classic [malay/local] hairstyle and did that. The Madame is Pleased.

In a nutshell: He thinks that all those styles out there are the best, but local is the way to go.

For the record, Manja exists. He's been my mum's hairdresser for 20 years. And "the Executive Look" DO exist. I saw one just now, during dinner, in the dining room.
Below are the same story but with the "Ye Olde" twist.

*UPDATE*: Silly me. Credits goes to Craig for reminding me this piece of story from the "Jalani Family Saga". If this didn't fly, we can use that story about how my dad fight with the robot on the phone.

FYP Commences!

2007-11-01T22:44:00.000+08:00

Finally I get to access my blog account. Everytime I click Sign In, it redirect me back to the Sign Up page. It says I gotta sign in with my Google account. I did. It's the wrong account. E-mail Help. Counter-email, blah blah. Finally got i right.

I got the green light for my Final Year Project (FYP), thank God! I gotta get everything in focus now. I have calculated that if I keep at it at my current speed, it's going to take me about 17 weeks to do the animation. Just the animation! (not editing, voice recording; nada!) So, this forces me to seriously reconsider how am I going to go about this thing. 3D? 2D? Both have it's charm. It's so sad every time I see people say "2D is dead" or "3D has no art/life/soul in it" etc. It's like pitching these two techniques in a cockfight, trying to prove that one or another is the ultimate tool in Animation. I'd like to see it this way: 2D and 3D are both good tools in Animation, among other tools (stop-motion, paper cut-outs, sand animation --hey, did you guys forget about these?) in the Library where we get to pick and choose whenever we find it suitable. So we should stop antagonizing each other (2D, 3D, stop-mo; whatever) and be friends (queue Why Can't We Be Friends by War)

Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?

I seen you 'round for a long long time
I really 'membered you when you drink my wine

Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?

I seen you walkin' down in Chinatown
I called you but you could not look around

Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?

I bring my money to the welfare line
I see you standing in it every time

Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?

The color of your skin don't matter to me
As long as we can live in harmony

Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?

I'd kinda like to be the President
so I can show you how your money's spent

Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?

Sometimes I don't speak too bright
but yet I know what I'm talking about

Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?

I know you're working for the CIA
they wouldn't have you in the Mafia

Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?

2007-10-28T09:00:00.000+08:00

Omigod! Nickelodeon's hit TV series Avatar: The Last Airbender was shown four new episodes last week! This news has reduced me to a rabid, frothing creature. Awed by this massive Avatar overload!
Bottom are some paintings done in Photoshop ages ago. Have a nice weekend.

*Update*: finally finished watching them all. It was mind-blowing!

Ep 6 : Avatar and the Firelord (Avatar Roku's past life and his relationship with Firelord Sozin)
Ep 7 : The Runaway (Toph's scamming get's out of hand)
Ep 8 : The Puppetmaster (Katara learns a water-bending technique she wished she hadn't)
Ep 9 : Nightmare and Daydream (Hilarious episode where Aang gets a sudden panic attack about facing the Firelord. This episode reminds me few days before my SPM)

It's bizarre, but I gotta get this out of my head. This is the result of watching Black Heaven 6 hours straight.
