For those who caught our saxophone day post, I’d like to point out that Jasper’s saxophone is named after a classic jazz standard made famous by Nat King Cole. It’s a smooth and sweet song about a man in love, and we can say the same thing about our boy Jasper—he loves his Sweet Lorraine.

“When a discouraged sheep becomes possessed by a demon and gains the power to shift into his lycan form, she realizes the potential of being a big, bad werewolf in a world where little sheep are easy prey.”

Here's most of my backgrounds for the lovely short film Garage Sale!

You can watch the film here:

I've spent almost all of my animation career being brought on to help with either animation or storyboarding, so when @ragtagstuff reached out and asked if I could instead help lead the charge with establishing the backgrounds, it was too cool to pass up!

The idea that I remember proposing (this was a couple years ago now so I could be wrong here lol) was to take a color thumb that I think @deadlycomics drew earlier for the project and make its color choices run through the entire film, and I later set up a style guide to help make it easier for others to match the look.

I still love the end results that everyone turned in, and how well it comes together to capture its idea of a dreamy, hazy summer/early autumn's evening. Most of the backgrounds I made were focused on the all-important garage sale itself, there was more than enough junk valuable trinkets to draw for it that kept me busy at the time. xP

Anyway this is all a long-winded way to say that I'm so absolutely pumped that someone who was making an animated film wanted my help in backgrounds instead of animation/storyboards. I love being thrown curveballs like that, it means the world to me. 💖

I would like to share something that made me personally feel a little better today. I would also like to share a playlist I’ve made to help cheer anyone struggling up, at least a little bit. This is a collaboration link, so please feel free to add any other positive songs you would like!

You are never alone. Don’t ever make the mistake of believing that you are, because you’re not. Stay strong.

I’ve been mostly reblogging and posting music related things, but I’ve thus far neglected the other main element that our show has—indie animation! I intend to correct that oversight immediately! 😤 Hello fellow indie animators!

Last but not least in the trio is Judy! She's the defacto mom friend of the group, caring and concerned sometimes to a fault. As a non-elemental creature, her only goal is to do what she can to help stop the corruption affecting her friends, but she may find it more difficult than she originally anticipated
