For this it may take a little while because I want to make sure I have the best camera I can afford and build and a great set and puppets.<br />
<br />
What I do already have done is the fully fleshed out idea and finished second draft of script. I am currently working on the visuals for the two main characters and the layout of the set. It's all figured out in my head and I just need to get it out on paper.<br />
<br />
In the meantime here are a couple of first glimpses at the main characters, "Murphy" (Top) and "Yeldarb"(Bottom). Enjoy.<br />

It's about a guy and a snowman. The script is written and I've made my first sketch of the main character. Hoping to finish designing visuals by next week. In the meantime, please enjoy a first look at the main character.<br />

This is a blog about a me (a husband and father of three) and my wonderful and sometimes chaotic experiences as I attempt to balance marriage, fatherhood and a passion to create my stop-motion animations. Join me as I post updates of all my animation creations as I go step-by-step making each project. They will all be stop-motion but that doesn't mean they will all be the same. Will post again and often....if my kids let me :)Shaun Bloomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13230151682166172564noreply@blogger.com0
