New short, CBeebies stuff, that one guy
4/11/12 by Wonchop
Howdy folks, got a new spontaneous short out today! This is the result of what happens when I ask Twitter for words and make an idea based on them. And y'know, not bother to write a script as usual. Depending on how it goes down, I might try more of these down the lines when I'm lacking ideas.

In other stuff, got to see my animation work on the new CBeebies show, The Lingo Show, which began airing a couple of weeks ago. For those in the UK interested, it's the episodes titled "Questanets" and "Queso the Clown", mainly bits on scenes involving both Lingo and Queso (I don't have a credit due to it being work experience, but you should be able to tell what I animated via the copious amounts of easing I used.) I dunno about when it's airing outside of its first loop, but I suspect it'll show on BBC iPlayer now and again. For those unable to catch it (the iPlayer's region locked), you can just look at this awkwardly out-of-context shot from a scene I animated. Frankly, I probably should've mentioned this about a week ago when it was readily available on iPlayer, but it had slipped my mind and then the news of Edd's passing came and it didn't feel appropriate at that point.
So yeah, as far as Edd's concerned, he was a pretty nice chap. I remember meeting him during one of Newgrounds London Meets, my initial reaction being "Damn, you're tall...oh look it's Tom Fulp." I since met him a few more times at further meets and expos, probably the last time I met him being last summer's London Meet. It's not my place to act like I knew him that well, but I will say, the guy knew how to stick to a project and deliver, an aspect I have always been particularly jealous of. It goes without saying, he'll be missed.
So as far as other stuff goes, I recently got another little niece with another one supposedly on the way, so that's nice I guess. I'm currently studying for my theory test at the moment. Apparently. Not easy when your room consists of 5% floor, 10% computer and 85% comfy bed. But nonetheless, I'll perservere. Also booked my tickets for May's London MCM Expo and may possibly attend some Youtube meetup in Lincoln funds depending.
See you some other time.

Wow, that previous comment was ridiculous. With that nonsense out of the way, you did a splendid job with all that nonsense, and made it into 'Internet Gold'. As for the show, be aware that you are shaping impressionable young minds. As such, you should shape those minds to agree with liberal economic and political views, and just to be safe, shape those minds to deceive their non-suspect conservative parents into thinking that no such conditioning is taking place.
^That above was also nonsensical rambling. Dear god, it won't stop.
Anyways, keep up the awesome animations.

How long did it take you to make banana goggles?
The callout was made on 9pm Tuesday and the animation was finished at about 8:30pm the next day. Including copious amounts of sleep and Miles Edgeworthing. Helps if you reuse a couple of assets (in particular the Ben model and the nuke which I lifted from past animations.)

WOW! Are you really working on a real TV show?
It was a short work experience gig. I have done some bits of TV work over the past few years, search as The Kevin Bishop Show I did whilst part of the Weebl crew and a short animation for CiTV a couple of years ago. I'd ideally like to do more of this.
