I really should do more...

Well, I started this blog for sketches, but I just don't seem to really do much outside of silly things based on whatever it is I am working on at the time. Registered years ago on deviantart so I could display my work, only it isn't exactly an inspiring place. The other day I registered with a forum where just knowing I could "talk shop" is inspiration in itself, so maybe we'll see some actual work on here now, huh?

I pulled my old student film out of storage a couple of months ago, intent on finishing it off for an event later this year. I've also started working on my own short film thingy that should be fun. I love working in a "flat" style, but this will be something much looser, and hopefully have a much more "natural" feel to it. I've written the script, and have done a couple of pages of storyboards, made a near-final modelsheet and have pages of concepts for the background content. Once I move forward I'll see about putting something up (without giving too much away) ;)

Of course, I should be starting a new contract soon, so all this will be around earning an income. As I often like to work long hours in studio, I have a feeling it'll be another 6-8 months of forgetting I made a blog.

Batman - The Dark Knight

Really looking foward to this movie. This trailer looks amazing.
