So here it is... another animation by yours truly.

I started this project about last may after I had submitted my previous animation here as well. And though it's been technically almost 7 months since, considering finishing school, on top of working full time, getting a new job, and having a full time girfriend. I estimate I only spent just about 5 months actual work time on this. And if you've noticed after finishing this, it's only half as long as I planned it.

The continuation of this will come soon I promise.

Furthermore I'd like to note that this is work that I do completely solo. So no more of that "you did great guys" stuff. The only assistance I really get is the great feed back and input of the many people I know. Giving me more eyes than just mine to help me along the way.

This here started with a thread on a local forum with yet again people I know. My initial idea was to make no graphical acheivements above the previous move I had finished. Only to make a movie of the same calibur, just with different people. Saving further breakthroughs in story telling for future episodes. Alas I couldn't resist, and really, with the ideas pitched to me for the type of story I wanted to tell. Some stories just don't fit in a 2d fighting game box.

So yea, all of the people in this movie here are faces of the people I know.... More or less. I discovered facial mapping in replacment of my photoshoping technique for makign the characters people I know. It ends up being a sacrifice in quality and at time accuracy for simple efficiency. I like to say that the least I could hope for is a likeliness to the person I hope to portray, afterall not software nor technique is perfect.

As for the story...

This one's meatier on plot than I had hoped, but it is also a lot more fighting too, which was my biggest complaint about the last one (only was about 1/3 action). But what it is that I hope to establish and overall story to that in the future, further episodes will need little to no development. But that much more down the line.

Thanks again to everyone who takes the time to watch my vid. Feedback is awlays well appreciated and never goes in vain.

This was rather a rush release this morning, so I didn't really have time to make up a credits seq. But I'll make sure all credit and casting goes where due at the continuation of this episode
