Thank for you support - September (Patreon)

I'd like to thank everyone for supporting my Patreon throughout this period. I'm going through a transitional period, now that I've finished college, working on my written thesis, moved out of my single apartment.

As for the month's news, there has been an issue with Patreon process of pledges. Please check if your pledge is declined and follow these steps if you encounter trouble:

1. If their bank suspects that the Patreon payment is fraudulent, a patron can call up their bank to confirm the payment is theirs and genuine.
2. If their payment failed, they can follow these steps or switch to a different payment method.
3. They can reach out to the Patreon support team to get account specific help.

In other news, I'm starting to learn a new 2D animation program, Toonboom Harmony, which has been presented as the future for 2D animation supporting both vector and bitmap animation and functions as an alternative to Flash/Animate CC with all the added extras (and without the added headaches.

Now, this program is both obscenely expensive and a real kick to adjust to, so I'm taking it for a trial run, learning it step by step. Hence I would occasionally post an experimental animation made with it (such as the one heading this newsletter).

Now for news about actual projects:

Short Animations

Judy Hopps - Progression Report

Scene1-(DONE)

Scene2-(90%) still need to animate the ears and some aditional effects.

Scene3-(99%) might add some additional shades and effects but it's pretty much done.

Scene4-(70%) Needs still needs coloring and ear animation.

Scene5-(85%) Lines are done, coloring has started.

Scene6-(65%) Need to finish the background, some of Judy's body parts and then animate her body.

In addition the short still lacks sound design and music which I'll start developing either when I recontact my sound designer or when I feel like I've finished the bulk of the animation.

Finishing that I have two more project planned: 

The Wakfu Mouth Cleaning Animation, is still in it's animatic state and would be worked on after Judy is done.

The next animation to come is A Wild GardeVORE Appeared, which will be developed to an animatic throughout this month.
