Next project..... (Patreon)

I've made a new section for my crowd written cartoon Sweet Boy Beach  (starts around 1:44 if you remember the first part).  My goal was to finish it before christmas, and I got a good suggestion for how to end it in one more part, but I've been simultaneously working on a piece of music for it, and when I put it into the project, it was no where near as good as the placeholder music, to the point where it felt ruined.  So I need to give up on making it quickly and come up with some more suitable music before this one can be done.  It's been an good experiment in any case, I don't think I would make this kind of thing long term even if it did give youtube's algorithms what they want, there's too much lip programming and too little drawing.  So I might continue this in January but I'm putting it down for the moment.

I've started Bruce Wizard: Magic Trick.   If you haven't seen the first Bruce Wizard, this one will be similarly surreal and quasi-magical but bigger, better and with more of a story.  It's about Bruce teaching a class at Wizard School (which as you might be able to see in the picture, is kinda like Hogwarts) and losing the confidence of his students.  

Storyboarding it out, I'm a little worried it will be too disjointed and weird...probably the classical filmmaker in me crying out in protest.  I think I can safely ignore him because sometimes it's good to make something strange.....right?

I have agreed to storyboard a web series.  It's a new version of the thing I was working on six months ago, which never saw the light of day for some reason.  Assuming it actually happens, I'll be doing that and Bruce Wizard at the same time so that will prolong it a bit.
