We have expanded our creative team. We recently hired two new employees for our ink and paint department, Kenric Nilsson and Brian Lammey. The ink and paint department is one of our most important departments as well as busiest. These guys take all our scenes import them into the computer by scanning each individual frame and digitally paint them. This process back in the day would take weeks, and a painter would paint each cell by hand. Now it takes only a matter of hours with the blessing of the computer. We are very excited to be growing and expanding our animation studio and we welcome these guys aboard.

The inimitable Tony Bancroft dropped by the studio to update us on a scene that he is animating for our second episode “Saving Faith”. Mike and Tony go over a particular scene, (the greedy fingers scene) as well as take a peak at the storyboard for our third episode “Loving Obedience”. We always enjoy visits from our animators.

Episode 2 is coming along nicely. We have finally started animation. As of right now, we are currently working on our animatic. And no, we have not forgotten that we promised to show a sneak peak of our storyboards. Coming soon!
Episode 2 is turning out to be quite a show, with new insights into Theo’s world and of course mischief that only Luther and Belfry can get themselves into. Stay tuned…
