After my knee surgery i'm not on crutches and in a leg splint, unable to do much at all. this beingthe second knee surgery it has pretty much made me a liability, and i can't go back on my mission as i was really really hoping. the plus side is ofcourse i get to prepare more projects and make stuff for you guys to watch. and i plan to never leave newgrounds again permanently.

if my career distracts me from completely focusing on NG or animating so be it, but i will ALWAYS have an animation or game in the works, weather i get to work on it full time or not, and i'll ALWAYS contribute to NG.

Because i found out i'm here to stay, many things changed. one of which was the fact that i had been animating on my brothers laptop for the last month, so i went and spent a but load of money to get a computer that'll make me happy for a while to come. at least, until it's outdated. which is probably... tomorrow.

some stats:
i7 quad core processor
extreme II somethingorather motherboard
2 gb video card, geforce somthing
12 GB DDR3 ram (HELL yeah)
4 TB hard drive space
liquid cooling and crap

Working well into finishing two projects. a game and a movie, both not related to each other.

the game is "the Kill Kar 2", a topdown car game. the latest improvement on this one, is BLOOD and LOTS of it, including flying limbs and violence galore. as well as all the other crap i've mentioned in previous posts. will be released early november

the movie is "LARRY: episode 1", which follows lil' larry and his medieval adventure to... do stuff. anyhow, i hope it wall be successful because i have lots planned for the series and characters. this episode is due for release late october to early november.

What i plan, is to animate consecutive episodes 1,2,3,4 etc, but in between each i plan to release a 1.5,2.5 etc, which will be shorts, involving characters other then the main cast, and simple short situations, 1-2 minutes long max. that way you get bonus toons between episodes that happen a lil quicker. finally, i'll be working on a game at the same time as i work on the main episodes, and from episode 2 onwards, nearly all games i make will be in the LARRY theme.

Animation will not always be the forefront of my career path. for the next year or so it will take a main hold but i'mm gonna chase my dream and that is, get signed to a record label and make music. it's gonna be a tough path but i gotta follow my heart on this one. i'll always have animations and games going though.

So how it starts is, along with my computer, i've set up all my recording gear, and purchased legitimate software and VST's and everything i need to kick of a demo CD and get signed. my hope is to get with a big label, but thats prolly a fair way off at this point, and it's more likely that i'll get signed with Lisa Gerrard's record company she recently founded, Gerrard Records. They havn't signed anyone yet coz they were founded about a month ago, but lisa's in the big leagues and from it i hope to make connections. this is in the assumption that she'll sign me, coz i love her so much and she likes me back. non romantically ofcourse. :)

from her website bio:
"In 2009, she founded her own record label, Gerrard Records, with the intent to empower and support unsigned, unrecognised artists the world over.

Breaking from the typical record label mold, Gerrard Records will seek to give artists the tools and resources to manage themselves, as well as acting to safeguard the rights and intellectual property of the artists it serves. Lisa's new studio album, The Black Opal, is set to be the label's first release."
