Any Ideas?

Posted by GCK - May 30th, 2008


I've been working on this little drawing or a few weeks, but I was sidetracked when I went to Chicago a few weeks ago. I really haven't been in the mood to work on it since. It's supposed to be Travis Touchdown from No More Heroes; my intention was to have him running away from the beam move that Destroyman uses. I'm not sure if I will finish it, but I thought it would be a fun thing to share since I really liked how character came out. Plus it's always fun doing a drawing with a bit more detail than I would put into an animation.

Anyway, after a few months of a break from even thinking about animating, I'm slowly getting in the mood to work on a new animation. At the least, I'm in the mood for the planning stages (brain storming, researching, writing, and storyboarding). The only problem I have is I'm not sure what I want to do. So far, I have two ideas.

My first idea is a serious short, but I only have 1/2 to 1/3 of it thought out. Right now it's more experimental because it doesn't follow any traditional models for a story line. What I mean is that it would be more of a day in the life of a character who is presented with an issue, but he or she is too young to understand it.

My second idea is a comedic short that would tie into other work that I've done. This idea follows the traditional ideas for storyline and I have the basic plot points all thought out. The issue with this idea is that that humor is very bathroom and juvenile.

So, does anyone have any preference of what they would like to see? I know I'm being very vague, but I really don't want to discuss too many of the details right now because I might not do either of these ideas.

Thanks
Jon~

Jon, all I've seen from you (in flash) is serious work. Let's see something funny, eh? I mean, the comic strips you made a while back were pretty fucking amazing, so I know you've got a knack for it. Hell, you've got a knack for just about everything you do. Either way you go you'll own the portal for a minute, but as I said, I'd love some humor.

And hey, what's wrong with a little bit of "juvenile" humor? If it's funny, it's funny, right?

Much much love bro; I'm looking forward to anything you put out,

PS: Make some Shades Gang shit in a bit, haha. Hell, maybe tie it into (or make it <_<) your project. God knows we need it :<

That's what I've been thinking too. It would be fun to do something funny. Time to get to planning and what not.

Yeah definitely do a comedic short.

Perhaps I will...

Yes...apart from your product placement on the shirt which I approve of the picture you have up there right now. The expression on his face easily looks like funny right there and pure gold comedy can come from that correct compressed photon sword. Some examples could easily be:

"Hey! Look at what I can do!" *Makes a flipping action and chops off something* "Fuck..."

You can also have him be very unstable when it comes to girls or have some kind of off fetish such as in "Airplane" where the guy can't drink water straight. Back to the girl idea when ever confronted by one he basically gets an off expression and lets off a "poot".

Also, make the antangonist comedic as well, he/she if you make it a she have yourself play her part with your voice(Venture Bros reference for you) yet making her quite...sexually stimulating.

The plot line is your own.

Thanks for the feedback, but I think you may be a bit mistaken. That drawing is supposed to be Travis Touchdown from the game No More Heroes. I'm not planning on doing an animation with him. I just wanted to show off the drawing because I really liked it and it was the first thing I had done in months.

It seems most people, including yourself, want to see something comedic. I guess I will probably have to do a funny animation then.

well, i say go for the comedic one.

it could rock.

still, if i may suggest ideas...... should i do so?

Go ahead and suggest away. I have no objections. :)

Yo son, remember to keep up with and check in on the [SG] forums if you need more ideas or even some help with your upcoming flash.

Late.
