And.... it's live!

After it's year and a half in the sun in and around the festival circuit it's finally time to put my short film online. So here it is: 9.5 minutes in full! Hope you enjoy.

Nominated at Zamoxis

Nominated for Best Animation at Santa Monica's Zamoxis Short Film Showcase!

Trailer for Ticking Away

And here's the trailer for our film!

Promotional Stills

We've lifted some stills from the film for festival and promotional purposes. Hopefully it'll help to get us selected. And to get some pants (and skirts) in those cinema seats.

Cleanups

Here's some more animation, cleaned up this time, for our project.
Background is by Brun Croes. Animation by me.
We're on 77% and we only have a few more days to go, so help us out and donate here if you can:

To keep things going; here's some rough animation, followed by cleanups.

Layouts

Here's some more artwork. These are the B/W layouts drawings for the animation scenes. Eventually they were colored in by Brun Croes. (I'll post some of those colored BG's later.) A fair portion of these will be included in the 'Making Of' book, btw.

And please don't forget to donate if you can! Help us finish this thing, we only have 16 days left and that's not a lot.

A big thanks to everyone who donated! To everyone else, please donate if you can and help us finish the film. It would help us tremendously and you get a nice reward in return. Otherwise, please share our crowfunding message.

To celebrate, here's a little teaser with rough animation. The foreground/background is painted by the inimitable Brun Croes.
