From the 17-20th, I’ll be over at MINECON in Las Vegas, Nevada with some awesome people. It was a bit of a last minute surprise since I don’t really play Minecraft, but I am very familiar with the game and I’ve watched countless hours of Tomar maintaining the Guardbreak Minecraft Server. We’re also planning for a Minecraft cartoon for youtube, so it would be better for me to get even more familiar with all of it.
Our friend Ross (rubberninja) will be hosting a panel on animation there! We will be on the panel with him, talking about a new animation we have planned. I’m looking forward to seeing some cool updates,new games, and sick costumes at the con. Hope to see you there!
Well, it’s been a while since I last updated….and honestly, there’s been a ton of stuff going on. To start, Tomamoto and I got our youtube account signed on with Machinima. So now our Youtube videos run ads and make a little more money than they did before. Yay! We are still keeping a goal of trying to update the channel 1ce a month with a new video. Currently we’re working on Sergio and Bear 3 and have lots of plans for future shorts and toons. We’re still working on uploading older stuff to get everyone familiar with our youtube channel.
In other news, it’s been a hard struggle with money lately. We just moved to a big house in Palmdale, an hour away from where we used to live, so we’re been working to fix the place up and turn it into our new home. It’s been almost 2 months now and we’re still not QUITE there yet…but it’s coming along nicely and we’re all a lot less stressed with all the space here. Today, one of my roommates left to be on a show called The Tester. We are all excited to hear about the shenanigans he’s going to cause on the set. The show will air sometime next year, so be sure to tune in if you have a PS3! My other roommate has been working hard on her own youtube channel with make up tutorials
My Web Comic, Aminals, took a little downgrade since I’ve been so busy. It now only updates 1ce a week as opposed to 3 because I noticed my updates were getting incredibly sloppy and it was getting harder and harder to keep up with. Now I will have more time to put some effort into those pages and give it a little TLC.
I’ve been working hard, but apparently not hard enough. As a last resort, I opened for ‘adult’ commissions sometime in September under a new alias. I’ve been building that alias a little more so that I have some sort of regular income…which explains my absence. So far it’s working! I made rent easily last month and I did even better for October…however, I really don’t want to be doing adult commissions forever. My hopes are that I can branch over to something else later…but who knows. Maybe I’ll get stuck in the adult industry.
