loosely based on the gritty optical soundtrack of the opening scenes to Ridley Scott’s Alien, these are just some of the base sounds I’ve created for the Hacker’s computer interface. Like the robot fly sounds, these are mapped to the keyboard also and can be performed to picture. There are similar sets for CU, short and far.

I’ve built up a library of about 80 clicks zaps and buzzes for the robot fly. I’m able to map these to a keyboard and perform them to picture. This is an example of what I think he sounds like.

Above is an example of the joy and flexibility of multi layer guns. Each set of shots is built from the same 5 core layers.  Adjusting panning and level of any of the layers gives you great control over distance and perspective while keeping a sense that it’s the same weapon.

Current progress on the building of the Lab “Kill Room”.  There’s still a lot of detail to add (the observation area is only blocked in) and more textures.  Click for larger image.

Thought we’d share a few pages from the Joe is Japanese graphic novel that we’ve been raging on here at Humoring the Fates (that’s the 2D animation studio where we make cartoons) this past year.

These pages are a bit of a montage, as the characters continue to party (and drink) at the transvestite hostess club in Shibuya. We’re assured this is what a typical Japanese business meeting looks like.

In-house sequence for use on the reel, and wherever else it seems appropriate.

What could I possibly say? Nortega silliness. It makes for some fun loops if you fiddle with the frames.

Added firing frames. Casings still to come.

Casings added. Bodies next.

Linestests for near BG characters falling to machinegun fire. With judicious timing these three can be doubled up for the half of the rotation that passes by before the transition.

Additional BG elements next.

Secondary BG characters with limited animation. One final plate and perhaps a nice explosion will round out the BG elements.
