fighting depression and getting back in shape

So you should!  They are great and I can't wait to see your next one!  Just no horror or throwing up for me please!  lol   

thanks for the kind words, I think I might do some animations of my favourite comedians,

[Amanda_George]

Go for it!  Might be wise to email their management if you're planning on anything other than personal pleasure with them though, 'cos of some kind of legal thing that stops you gaining profit for using their fame or something like that?  I ain't a legal bod, but surely it's better to be safe than sorry?  If they are just for you and the forum then forget I said anything though

Good luck with your idea to do animation

Just finished an animation based on the locker room segment from the congratulationspodcast

[Amanda_George]

That's great work, Jali!  Good going and you should definitely look into putting it on a site or something if you want more people to see it too!

[jali]

thanks for the kind words, I think the animation turned out really well, I tried some new things in this one, the animation is based off an American comedian, I've sent him a message on twitter with a link to the animation hopefully he sees it and shoes it to his friends and fans

[Amanda_George]

I hope you get a reply from the comedian!  If he replies, maybe ask for a quote that you can put in any future ones featuring him?  If he agrees it will give you such a confidence boost and by putting all your animations on a site, you can put other quotes from other featured famous bods too which will boost your ranking and you'll get more visitors and maybe even requests from others... you can so do this, Jali... remember us when you're famous?

believe it or not, he has done it before, for another animator who created a video about him, i'm hoping he does it for me too, I worked really hard on the video and think it shows,

here is the video in question

[Amanda_George]

My internet connection is like a yo-yo for some reason today, but I'm hoping it'll stay up for long enough to watch the video... hold on!

Is it just my iffy internet connection or is it supposed to be jittery?

[jali]

it might be your internet connection

[Amanda_George]

Ah right.  Okey dokes   

[Amanda_George]

Yeah, it was my internet connection 'cos it was fine when I watched it again just now

WARNING BAD LANGUAGE

[Amanda_George]

Honest feedback?  It was good but hard to understand most of it because of the background noise.  Keep going though... you're really good with the animation stuff!

I get where you're coming from, I've been listening to this guy for 9 years now, he does have a thick new york accent, you're right about the background noise, the actual clip is longer but I decided to cut it short because of the noise, that being said, it's one of his most famous quotes and people have asked for an animated version of it,
