I know, I know.. I announced a new Sea3on artist some time ago as I had found one. Sami as you all know has worked on shorts before in the past, plus her work has always just been amazing. So, we (myself and her) were hoping for her to get back on her drawing path and become our main artist.
Sadly over the course of the last month plus some her work life just became too hectic. With working the next town over and working 6 day weeks (which currently show no sign of ending) she came to me this morning expressing that there is no possible way for her to get going as the main artist at this time. We chatted about holding off on the comic a bit longer, maybe things will clear up come summer..But in the end we both decided that for now at least it is best to try finding a artist.
So..I hope to end this artist curse that seems to be haunting Sea3on.
So..Looking for artist(s). I’m actually wiling to accept a team of people this time. I know a lot of you last time wanted to try something and were waiting for a page for me to toss out…Anyways I have that page now.
But be warned… Taking on this job apparently throws your personal life into absolute hell. For it is the CURSE OF SEA3ON!!!
So PM me on the forums with your work, email me Paul@Sonicsatam.com or jump into our IRC chat room and chat with me about this. http://www.sonicsatam.com/sample-page/chat-room/
As for a promo page to try out..
—————————————————————————————————————-
Page One
Plain white background. The Freedom Fighters are all standing, side by side, in the foreground and looking at the audience. From left to right: Antoine, looking bashful; Bunnie, giving a big wave and an even bigger smile; Sally, arms folded in font of her chest and a calm smile on her face; Sonic, winking and giving a flashy thumbs up; Rotor, arms folded behind his back, eyes closed, but a small smile on his face; and Tails, hopping up and waving with both his eyes with an enthusiastic grin.
Everyone: HELLO!
Close up of Sally, still smiling calmly at the audience.
Sally: Welcome to the Audition! This little exercise is designed to-
Same shot, but Sally is now being pushed aside by an eager-looking Sonic on the right side of the panel, much to her annoyance.
Sonic: We wanna see how awesome you can be!
Normal shot; we can see the characters from the waist up now. Sally is on the left, pushing Sonic away toward the right side of the panel. Sonic is stubbornly trying to get back to the center, flailing his arms at her, but it’s no use. Sally is glaring daggers at him, and he at her.
Sally: That’s only part of it, Sonic! They’re not just here to show off, but to practice!
Medium long-shot. Rotor is in the background, and has picked Sonic and Sally up by the scruffs of their necks; he is looking at Sally with a chiding expression. Sonic and Sally are both looking quite surprised.
Rotor: C’mon, you two, settle down. What we’re trying to get at is…!
Same shot, but we are now seeing it from the bottom of Rotor’s neck upwards. His hat has now been snatched by Tails, who is hovering over him in the upper portion of the panel with his tails spinning; he looks very amused with himself. Rotor looks befuddled.
Tails: We’re trying to say, we’re here to have fun!
Page Two
Long shot. Bunnie is in the lower left corner of the panel with a cocky little grin, extending her robot arm up to Tails, who is in the upper right of the panel looking surprised, and grabbing on to Rotor’s hat; Rotor (still holding on to Sonic and Sally, both of whom look mildly annoyed) is in the center, still confused by all this.
Bunnie: Now now, Sugah-Fox, don’t you get carried away up there.
Medium close-up of Bunnie looking at the audience with a friendly smile; her robot arm is pulling back in from the upper right of the panel, with Rotor’s hat in its hand.
Bunnie: Now then, why don’t we get back t’business ‘n’ introduce ourselves to…!
Medium long-shot. Bunnie is on the left of the panel, looking up in shock at Rotor, who is looking pretty mad and has tossed a shocked Sonic and Sally aside into the lower right of the panel so that he can begin to try and tackle Bunnie. Tails, also looking annoyed, has begun diving toward Bunnie from the upper right of the panel.
Rotor and Tails, simultaneously: GIMME THAT HAT BACK!!!
Same shot, but everyone has fallen to the bottom of the panel in a big, messy heap, kicking up a cloud of dust and debris in the process.
Same shot, but everyone is now lying down, looking mildly pained, at the bottom of the panel in a crumpled heap.
Same shot, but Antoine, nervously twiddling his thumbs, looking at the audience with a sheepish smile and sweating a little, has side-stepped in front of the pile.
Antoine: Eh-heh-heh…I am most apologizing for zis embarassing display, but…to get to ze very point….
Medium close-up of Antoine, eyes closed and smiling awkwardly, waving at the audience.
Antoine: …Goodbye!
You know, I’m starting to think you never really found a new artist in the first place. I’m starting to think you stopped working on Sea3on!
Ignore that! Please, ignore that! You did FIND an artist! She WAS too busy! You DIDN’T stop working on Sea3on! Please, don’t ban me, I’m begging you!
I’m starting to get worried that it’s never starting back up.
it will as soon as someone can help start it up again and keep it rolling there is no way that Season 3 will shutdown completely especially in the dead middle of a chapter
… No words can express the disappointment…
very understandable
I still believe in you guys. Projects like these are difficult to keep up, and its totally understandable that there would be delays. This is an ambitious project, and one that i will continue to follow until you stop. (please never stop trying.)
Why Universe?!?! Why must you continue to delay my dreams of seeing this season continue?!?
I’m wondering if I wouldn’t be better to get like 3 artists on hand. One for each update or something. That way there can be a constant update.
Hmm……. Procedure postponed. Give Sami my regards and I hope to see this chapter finished soon. Too bad we cant Tracy Yardley! or Spaz
Getting a team to do the artwork would really be a good idea. Someone to sketch, someone to ink, someone to color. I’d be happy to color for the comic, actually! I don’t have the time to do the whole comic, but coloring I have time for. (http://awesomeblossompossum.deviantart.com/ My deviantart if you’re interested. 😛 )
those are the best stick figures I’ve ever seen 😮
You suck, Paul. Sea3on is behind schedule because you suck!
Talk about being under the weather Bro, cut Paul some slack they got Se3on Animated to worry about, they’ve got to worry about keeping both you entertained and carrying on Ben’s dream.
So, uh… any progress?
Comic will be back soon, just gotta get a few things sorted out- comic will be back with a lot of splainin.
You sir, have just made my week.
@saber
So you’re back to drawing?
AWESOME, so glad to hear these good news! 😀
@saber:
define “soon”…
