No but I never said it was easy. Nothing worth doing is.

Good luck to you, jackass.

No matter what you try in any field, when you have more ambition than others they will always try to tear you down. Don't let their failures steer your decision.

Learn the program and make your feature. That no one else has decided to dive in headfirst doesn't make it wrong. The definition of creativity is doing something no one else did.

Someone on here said it beautifully - even if it comes out horrible, you've produced a full feature. Then you can start a thread asking who else has done that.

Just don't be surprised when you get no replies to that thread.

I'm rethinking the story I had been making realizations about what in my opinions make a good story. The first draft was too long for a beginer,second the story was flaw in everything. I made a goal for myself have the script done by September, voices by December and animation by January. I have tore up the script 3 times may this be the last.

I would have thought the Animation would be the hardest and longest part.
[Well the script too. . . . ] I guess I would have expected the Voices to be the easiest to do . . .

I have much to learn

If the voice recording will indeed take so long to finalise, you should pace it out by recording yourself, so you know the timing of the animation. Then you can create an animatic and even animate some scenes whilst waiting for the acting to be completed. Of course, the timing of your voice won't be perfect, so you don't want to do all the detailed parts, but it will give you a rough guide and certain parts should be do-able.

I got someone who records voices for Central Park Media and Manga corp to help out on my project.

Trying for October

I remember reading that in early auditions, someone in power in the studio said those words to Tom Cruise. He chose not to give up.

All success stories come with a heaping spoon of failure, but a bigger cup of persistence.

I made my first short anime style film on nights and weekends while working a "real job." It took me around the world, ended up on TV in many countries and eventually got major label distribution (along with another work I later produced).

Having done it both ways, I'll take doing what I really want to do, even for an unstable or meager income, over the 6 figure studio job any day.

I am going to stop right here before I get on a roll and write a novel. I will just say go for it.

Oh, now there isn't going to be a movie after all the support and talk. Why am I not even the least bit surprised?

You want a feature? You got a feature! Script is written, voices are recorded, and I've actually started doing animation. There's a special preview of the first sequence up on the website:

Look for it May 5th, 2010.
