Man, it's been a while...

I'm finally back in the game. Aminating and aminating until my heart stops. I finally got school stuff taken care of, and now I'm ready to kick some ass!
A few things you may be wondering about:
1. Is that Scott's voice in the trailer/test clip? Yes. Yes it is. And I'm providing the voice of Scott. I've re-recorded my lines and made the voice higher and louder to fit Scott's comic persona. Don't worry, it won't be annoying loud. More like spastic loud.
2. WHEN THE F--(insert explitive here) IS THIS COMING OUT BLAAARGH!!?!?!?! Well, I'm not sure, anymore. I'll let you know when I get closer to finishing my animating.
3. How will the characters look? Well, at first, I was doing a literal trace-over of Volume 1, and then I thought to myself, "That's fucking lazy. Try harder, you lazy, stupid asshole!!!" So yeah... Characters will look like they do in volume 6. Or as close to that as they can, due to my shitty-ass drawing abilities. (That was mostly a joke... Mostly...)

So there you have it. It'll take even longer so that I can deliver something of better quality, sacrificing quicker release for something at least passable. Also, tell people to read this blog if they like Scott Pilgrim and cartoons and would like to see those 2 worlds make sweet, sweet love to each other. The more people who want to watch it, the more motivated I will be to do it!

OH! I also - due to microphone quality, among other things - had to replace Kim. Do not worry, the old Kim was promised (I think) the role of Roxy Richter (when I finally get there), so in the mean time, our new Kim is none other than... Ooh, a real drumroll, nice.... KARRIE SHIROU!!! Yes. If you don't know her, look her up. She's awesome.

And one more thing, before I stop boring you all to death. I'm deleting the scene with Stacey for the first episode and adding a scene to make it more exciting. I'm removing the scene with Stacey because I decided I didn't like it that much and I'm adding this scene so that you guys don't turn off the episode before it's finished. Also, it'll add more depth. Don't whine. Don't try to convince me otherwise. You'll like it. I think. I hope. Whatever... And now... EPIC SCREENCAP TIME, MUTHERFOCKERS!!!
Whoops... Wrong photo....
There we go! Something un-finished. Crisp-looking, though.
Anyways, I'm done putting you to internet-sleeps, now.
Brandon Smith... Out....

SCREENSHOT NUMBER 1!



Was finally able to get to some aminating software to make some aminations. Here's a screenshot, kiddies!


Just because I love you soooo much.

Random Update #1: And so we begin...

A few things I want to run by those who care...

How would you guys like to see some screenshots of the animation in progress?
Would you guys like samples of select actors providing the voices for these characters?
Why is it taking me so god damn long to finish this one 10 to 15 minute clip?

Then the answer hit me: Of course, duh, and because whenever I get the chance something pops up in my life and it irritates me. Here's the deal: I do have access to my files and such, again, which means that it makes things easier for me to access and tweak things here and there. The problem is that I'm currently in the midst of a battle between sleep deprivation and getting things straightened in my own life, as far as college and living arrangements go. I'm also currently battling the ability to use flash. My question to myself: Do I want to continue the episode and risk much further delay, or do I want to enlist the help of any animators who are available and risk an inconsistency in style?

WELCOME TO THE BLOG!

Yes! Welcome to the production blog for Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life, season 1 of the fan-animated Scott Pilgrim series.
Got any questions? Wanna keep up-to-date with the series? Here's the place to do it. And tell your friends!

Quick update, though: In the teaser, it said that episode 1 will launch in Spring. There have been some personal complications and conflictions resulting in a change. It will drop mid-to-late may.
