Hiatus… :(

by Wei on June 8, 2011 at 1:00 pm

I am sorry I have to do this shitty shitty thing. Days of Leviathan is going into hiatus for at least a year. The main reason is because I have too much going on right now for the type of commitment to do Days of Leviathan justice. DoL was meant to be a really long story. With my final year of animation school coming up and the grad film, I can’t dedicate myself to DoL. And I don’t want to give it a half-assed effort.

For the foreseeable future, any comic attempt on my part (and there WILL be more comics by me) will be short stories of at most 50 pages. That way I am not overcommitting and I can experiment as well.

If you really like long form stories, there is an awesome comic by my girlfriend, Anise, called Even in Arcadia. I am helping her thumbnailing many of the pages but she has dedicated herself fully to this comic. I know what the story and all I can say is it’s going to be sooo goooood.

Sorry to disappoint. I learned my lesson and there will not be another incomplete comic by me ever again!

The Worst Prank

Days of Leviathan: Chapter 1, Page 35

I will be exhibiting at TCAF!! Yaaay! I will also be doing a panel on Sunday morning called Embedded Culture. Come join me!

To be honest, I am not proud of the next few pages… neither the art nor the dialogue. But it’s done and I have to much to do to go back and re-do it… sigh.

I hope you enjoy it anyways. I promise it will get better!

(I am the worst promoter of my own work. ><)

Just Wasn’t Right

Days of Leviathan: Chapter 1, Page 34

This is the last page in my buffer. Oh god, now I gotta color more. But the good news is, I am done with school!! Yaaaay!

Funny story happened on the morning of the last day of school. I forced myself up off my bed because I was going to be late and literally, two steps to the bathroom, I fell asleep on the spot. Next thing I knew was that pain was slowly creeping onto my right cheek, right bottom lip and my knees. I wasn’t sure if I was dreaming that I was in pain in a dream until I heard Vanessa goes, “Wei, are you okay? Wei??” I did a little shake, you know, the shake that you do when you aren’t sure if you are in a dream or in reality and you just want to see if you can feel your limbs. It was bizzare. I don’t drink so this must be what drunk people feel like.

So, the next few pages were drawn last summer, before I started my animation program. The art might be a bit different (worse) than before… Please forgive!

Also, sorry for being late! Final projects have been NUTS. Here is one of the layouts I did for my layout final.

Hey everyone! Here’s the animatic WIP I promised. I made it in a week on top of all the other school assignments so please forgive its faults. I am going to work on it a lot more over the summer and eventually make it my grad film. Currently it is missing a scene as well.

Hey everyone I am back!!

So I’ve submitted my Disney portfolio… I still need to tweak some stuff but all in all it’s done. I was going to show you guys my storyboards and animatic but for some reason some of the pages aren’t working properly. So I am going to have to fix that promptly tomorrow. For now, I will share with y’all a layout I recently did.

Objectives of This Operation

Hey everyone, sorry for missing an update last week. I was too busy with my application for the Disney internship. The good news is that the deadline for the internship has been extended to March 25th, the bad news is Days of Leviathan will be on hiatus for the next two weeks because of it. I am sorry about that guys.

When my storyboards and animatic (possibly) are done, I will post them up!

Last Line of Defence

Have you heard of the animation, Key Lime Pie? Well, I met the creator of that short today! Trevor Jimenez is his name. Such a cool, informative and inspiring guy. He gave a great talk at our school today. Did you know that unlike TV storyboard artists, feature film storyboard artists actually participate tremendously to the writing of a movie?! I didn’t until today. Now my goal is to be a feature film storyboard artist because that work environment sounds fucking awesome.
