iPhone

So I picked up an iPhone the other day...it's a pretty disgusting piece of machinery. Everything I need/want it to do, they've already figured out how to do it and make it easy for you. The only issue I had was sending outgoing mail, but I think that was more to do with my ISP than anything else...

It's also got a decent camera on it. It managed to take the scariest photo of my cat Charlie ever imagined. I did zero photoshop work to this photo. He looks like when in Batman Begins and the Scarecrow is hallucinating and sees Batman all scary...Charlie looks like that.

Oh and it also makes telephone calls.

Interview in Dangerous Ink Magazine

A couple of months ago I did an interview for Dangerous Ink Magazine (out of the UK) - It's a nice 3 page spread. The timing is unfortunate since it's about Clock Suckers and we're stopping it in 3 months. Well check out their site and it's available to buy in the UK, and will be in the US around March. You can download the article HERE

Moving On...

All good things must come to an end...sort of.

CollegeHumor let us know that this is going to be the last round of Clock Suckers. They made sure to tell us that it's not due to lack of popularity, but more about the direction that CHTV is headed. The formula that works best for CHTV are the viral skits and shorts.

Make no mistake though, we're not done working with CollegeHumor - we're actually moving right over to a new project with them. It's not a new episodic series, but a series of the viral skits. We'll be writing and animating them (CH Writers will also be writing skits). Not exactly sure when these will start up - could be once CS is done or as soon as possible. I think the initial schedule will be one per month, and possibly more as CHTV grows.

Once these new skits start up and CS stops, we should have a lot more time to re-dedicate to CU and KFK.

We're not exactly sure what to do with CS. Do we continue to produce episodes? Shop the new episodes around to other websites? We're definitely going to produce a DVD with all the episodes...and maybe a special "DVD-only" episode included.

Well, let us know what you think about all this.

What I'm Doing Today...

Animating Clock Suckers and creating some character art.

Quick update on CU12 - After writing and re-writing and changing the plot around etc, I think we've finally come up with a solid storyline. If we can pull it off, it will be our most complex CU story by far...and by "complex" I mean stupid.

Meeting...

Had a meeting with Heavy.com today. It was short but sweet. We'll see what happens in the new year but for now it looks like they'll be playing CU on their site, gauge the response and if there is enough interest, possibly a sponsorship and more CU episodes.

Could also lead to a new series as well.

So when when CU starts playing on Heavy we'll need you guys to watch like crazy.

All in all, good quick meeting.
