He's creeping out.
i did a bad thing and changed brushes half way through, though when testing it, it worked perfectly. Which is great, I think the inconsistent style lets me get a bit experimenty which is great.
I changed a brush and made the consistency even lower and it looks like i wanted to with brush strokes,which for about two frames it didn't. perfect!

He's creeping in.

This is the second part of the storyboard.
mainly just a series of gags of a fish getting eaten before
i introduce people breathing from straws.

I started animating a fish. I'm not sure if the white trail behind it looks like it's shooting
bum lasers or not but when I drew the sort of storyboard, I had little trails to show how it'd have
worked and I thought they'd look nice moving.


it's unrelated but it makes me think of this. Which I like.

Some people at uni asked to draw fish for me.


these two fish are more from Charlie. (he didn't ask, I forced)
thanks pal.






Some fish. (thanks charlie for the left one)
(i'll expand on this)

This really could have exported better but this is a quick test of the main character,bonnie.
I was thinking she'd be watching a fish that's got her attention,which leads her down to looking through her arm,then reaching for her straw.

i did a quick test of animating in photoshop ( the animation is quite poor,but the cleaning up bit looks like i need it to look).

I'd animate the film sort of like this,but a bit cleaner, where i animate in flash and lasoo tool around the
clean bits and use a big brush with low opacity and low flow.

i really like the inconsistent colours which give the glimmer of the colours

vimeos quite bad at cutting off frames,so this might look shorter than it really is.




These are the roughs which I drew lines on to be able to figure out shading.
the process was long (and it really didn't turn out well) but I think it shows what
I wanted. what I wanted to work worked.
