"Man! What a week!" and "CAUTION Design Terminology Up Ahead!" (Sounds like <lj site="livejournal.co

Got put on a design project for BeePee Gasoleeeen (don't want it cached by google) for an animatic (a moving storyboard to give an idea of the story and the timing) that they will test with audiences, and then if tested well turn into a spot like this:

( A little more explaination )

I got this assignment on Thursday for a rush job to do an animatic for BP so they could test it. Cool. I've already done 3 for them already so I figured it would be easy.

Wrong.

The animatics previously were done after weeks and weeks of character designs, character re-designs, background design, and keyframe composition design. After all that THEN it was all animated.

Thursday, Friday, Monday, and Tuesday, I did ALL that AND animation for a MUCH more complicated spot.
SO. TIRED.

My brain is fried but the animated blew the client away and went above and beyond what they expected.
Hopefully it will help it test well so they need someone to actually make the 3D commercial.
Now where could they find people to do that?

Oh I know! The people that kicked ass at the OTHER four 3D commercials for them!!! That's WHO!

Fingers crossed. All I know is it was a blast, although crazy hard to do all of it myself.

What is this movie?

Back in the late 90's/early 00's I rented this movie. I can't find it online and I have no idea what it was called.


Anyways....here is the plot.

These three guys are in high school and they are mad at the administration for some reason. So they start making these crazy posters (that look all like David Carson's graphic design work...google his name) and secretly posting them all over the school in protest. One of them is this crazy sound lover who walks around all day with a DAT recorder slamming lockers and stuff and makes this IDM soundtrack to this crazy propaganda movie that they play during a hijacked assembly.

Does this ring a bell at all? It's an indy-lke film. Maybe they were in a private school and they found an old room in the school with a printing press or something? it's driving me crazy.

I might be crazy. Who knows.

Please help me.
