Howdy howdy, working on two projects

Posted by TheATSthetic - February 7th, 2025


Alright so I don't make these often, especially on Newgrounds dot com. Let's change that.

I'm currently working on two short films.

~~~~

First is SOLAROID. The short synopsis is that

a series of Solaroid™ photographs found in several binders in an abandoned DOC’S RESCUE & RUMMAGE* SHIP and scattered on the floor of a COMMERCIAL TOWING SHIP on the 9TH OF JANUARY, 2630.

*A company known for responding to distress signals and rescuing the stranded occupants of nonfunctioning ships. If too late, they bring the bodies to the proper authorities and resell what they can of the nonfunctioning ships.


The protags are named Dani J. Léon, Astrid Toft, and Emilio Pacheco.

Here are their designs,

The story will be told through Solaroid photographs, displayed on a projector. I'll have to borrow my friend's projector and physically record me going through a slideshow. It might be neat, it might be lame. Let's hope for the best.

The film's artwork is VERY reference heavy. Either painting based off reference, photobashing, or paintovers over photobashes. It's a very experimental way for me to make a film but I need at least 74 digital paintings that mimick photography and it would suck do it without the reference and photobashes.

Here's some of those.

It'll come out whenever I finish it.

THE NEXT ONE IS ACETRONAUT in: THE TRANSDIMENSIONAL CAN CAN


this one is gonna suck to make. OKAY so this one is, if you've stared at my art long enough, something based off some OLD oc's of mine. It's going to be an AT LEAST 20 minute animatic, probably with some color. And voice acting.

It'll be my biggest project I've ever made and I am not happy with past me for writing a 21 page script. It's not going to be easy, and it's not going to be cheap. My ambition is my enemy.


The epsiode will be about a group of scifi dudes hunting down a EVIL FUCKING WIZARD who keeps hopping universes to run away from them but eventually, the alternate versions of them band together and hunt him down again, rinse and repeat.


It is very much in the concepting phase (visually speaking) and I'm not going to go too far with it until Solaroid is farther in development. Below are some concepts.

I'm sure you've noticed by my tone, I'm VERY weary about this project. It'll be a long process to work on and several films might come out before it. All fears aside, I'm excited about it. These are characters that are very near and dear to my heart and are one of the only projects I've made that isn't horror. It's more science fantasy action comedy. Here's hoping it goes well.


If you got this far, tell me, how's your day going. It's 11:30 am right now as I type this. I had a sandwich with balsamic glaze mixed in my mayonnaise with some water mixed with lime juice on the side.
