First of all, I'd like to say Merry Christmas! I hope you all get your presents, eat a good dinner, and meet up with friends and family! Secondly, I'm sorry I pretty much vanished for a week. I've been pretty much lazy and not really doing much. With that being said, I have not been working on my animation recently. I've only got almost 10 seconds done, but that's it. To be fair, it doesn't help that my 2 voice actors still needs to turn in their lines. So it's not like I could finish Chili and Crackers even if I wanted to. Once I get all lines in, that's when I'll be getting more serious with my work. And finally, not that it's important, but I got my presents for christmas. The majority of it is all art stuff. I mean coloring pencils, markers, paint, sketchbooks, and even a blank canvas. Expect a lot of art to be popping up whenever I go back to college. I also got axe shampoo, body wash, etc. Now I won't have to spend money on much hygiene stuff whenever I go to Wal-Mart for a while. And I also got these amazing speakers that I could hook up to stuff like my phone and my laptop. These 2 speakers have containers of water on each. And whenever you plug everything up and play audio, the water will bounce around everywhere like a lava lamp. And it looks really amazing! I don't know about the rest of you, but my christmas has been great so far! And today I will be heading down to grandma's house for dinner and possibly more presents. So there is still more to come! And I will tell you all how it goes tomorrow! Again, Merry Christmas! :D

So yeah, I know I've been quiet for the past few days. I was just sitting back and enjoying my winter break lol. With that said, today is the day I will begin the animation for Chili and Crackers. Even though I still need 2 voice actors to turn in their lines, I will animate the parts for the voice actors that did got their lines in. I already got a character design sheet ready, and I got a brand new avatar for myself (which I will not reveal until this animation is done). So, I'm not sure when this will be done because as long as my 2 voice actors don't have their lines in, I can't promise this being done anytime soon. It's just good to make some progress while the wait is happening. 

By the way, it's nothing important, but today marks 10 years since this wonderful picture was taken. It's the only picture I have of Cindy as a kitten, and it is one of the most perfect pictures to ever be taken (in my opinion lol). 

Got some bad news. The deadline to have this animation for the fandom collab finished falls on saturday. I'm nowhere close to getting it done. Don't even have any lines from my voice actors in yet. So I had to drop out of the fandom collab. There is some good news. Even with this being done, I'm not going to quit on making the video. Mostly because I already came too far into this that I don't want to back out now. So instead of being part of a collab, this video I'm making will be standing on its own called "Chili and Crackers!". I just wanted to let you all know what is going to happen. So again, the video is still being made here! :)

Made another background today. How is everybody doing? lol

So I'm in the process of making the 2nd background. My plan is to do one every day seeing how I only need to make 4-5. So I should be done with these in less than a week, and I'll be waiting for lines to come in from my voice actors. All is going according to plan. 

So yesterday was the beginning of winter break, and I'm really looking forward to relaxing and doing my animations in peace. I'm also looking forward to Christmas and seeing my relatives. I got 1 background for the Fandom Collab done so far, and there should only be at least 4-5 backgrounds in total. So it shouldn't take long to get done with them. The lines from my voice actors will be coming in a short time, so I'll just be working on character designs in the meantime. This should be a whole lot of fun. lol

So yeah, after long last, tomorrow will be the day I return home for winter break! I spent 4 months doing hard work, and now I can relax and work on my fanbase collab. It really should be fun lol. I got all of my stuff packed and ready to go, so now all I have to do is wait for tomorrow at 8 in the morning. Can't wait to enjoy christmas and see some familiar faces. Another thing I like to bring up is this project I auditioned for. A lot of you probably don't remember, but a couple months back I auditioned for various voice rolls for this webcomic called "Modest Medusa". And the results came back in, and I'll be voicing for the Emergency Services Operator! Glad to see after throwing everything at the wall and something sticks lol. But yeah, it's been pretty great. Something tells me I'm going to be having a good time! :)

So today was my day off (like I said in my last post), and I spent it goofing off and finishing up my script for the Fandom collab. Now it's time for me to look for 3 voice actors and 1 voice actress, and I should be able to gather them up. Tomorrow will be a pretty big day because outside of the pizza party, I'm also going to see if I can go to the Prestonsburg campus and sell back my college books seeing how I won't be needing them. Wish me luck! xD

So like I said yesterday, all I had left was a final and a project to work on. And today I got all of that done! No more college work for this semester! That also means I have no reason to be in college tomorrow, so Wednesday will be a free day for me. And then Thursday I will be heading to my class pizza party at Big Sandy. Finally, I will be heading home Friday! It's good to see all hard work paid off. So now it's time to play (or in this case, finish up the script for the Fanbase collab lol)! :D

So I think it's time to update for what will be happening this week because big stuff is going to happen. First of all, I'm almost about done with everything in college. I surprisingly don't really have that many finals to take. The only one I have to take is in Introduction to Computers which will be tomorrow. I also have this project for Digital Color Theory to get finished up on. Afterwards that will be everything for this semester! There will also be this pizza party Thursday for me and the other college students in my classes. Should be a whole lot of fun! And Friday one of the Carl D. Perkin vans should be taking me back home. I'm not sure if my Driving Lesson that Friday will happen or not, but either way it doesn't matter. Meanwhile I've been working on the script for the Fanbase collab, and it will require a few voice actors (which I will go into more for later). And hopefully I should have this done while being back home for a few weeks. So much to look forward too, and I can't wait to see it through! :)
