maybe you should have heeded the warnings that the only posts here that aren't yours ranged from "Not interested" to "Stop talking". This probably isn't the right audience for your message.

There are supposedly a bunch of Sonic fans on this forum (this forum is huge)... I guess they don't really care.

...Sonic referring to sound.

*Facepalm*

I'll say that I'm a big fan of classic Sonic, but that trailer didn't really grab me and to be honest I don't really have high hopes for it.

That SA1 parody thing was kind of funny though

Sonic actually is an audiophile:

lol

Please forgive my ignorance-Is it a personal film?
Don't you need copyright clearance to use an established character?

Yeah, the trailer was really a footage "sampler" and not anything actually from the movie, per se. I listened to the sample voice recordings, and those rock: deviantART: sonmanic's Journal: Sonic Fan Film: Voice Samples

It's really hard to get anything decent when there's only one animator. That's why the director has been calling for animators. Now, he's thinking of re-pitching the movie.

Sega actually has no problem with personal films--they help sponsor Summer of Sonic, and there's probably a least 30 different cartoon shorts and games created by fans. Free advertising doesn't bother them--they just don't anyone selling anything with Sonic on it.

This is truly fascinating to me: a whole following around something I am aware of, but surely have not given more than 8 seconds of thought to in my entire life.

It's like finding out that there is a whole group of people who gather together to discuss rare bookbinding techniques, or people who make fan art for whomever plays 3rd string quarterback for the Browns, or something.

What a world, eh?

What program did they use to draw with the wacom?

1. He missed his ears, and

2. He'd probably wear skullcandy, since they match his attitude, or something.

"Reading some of the comments made here about the animation and I guess I should clear the air here regarding what medium was used in creating the short. This animated trailer was not done in Flash, ToonBoom, or any other vector based animation software, for that matter. The entire production was 100% traditionally hand drawn. However I did draw directly into my animation software using a wacom, No paper was used, and inking was done without the use of any vector tools."

-adny, lead animator for the Sonic Fan Film

Yeah, my mistake if I said ToonBoom--that, I believe, may have been the initial app to use as stated by the director, but not now.

 

[Hifihedgehog]

Not bumping, but wanted to ask a sort of off-topic question: Would you guys buy a pair of Sonic the Hedgehog-branded Skullcandies?

 

[chud]

is this a joke?

 

[Hifihedgehog]

just a question... people got aggravated when i talked about the film, which is the title of the topic, and the reason it's under the thread section general

i was basically told to talk about what this site is all about, so that's what i did--talk about headphones--even though this is the general section
