george lucas >> new project

in typical Robbie fashion, i am on to a new project. i have not forgotten about the Scud project; i'm merely going with something that has a little more motivation right now.

my friend and co-worker, Shant, and i decided it would be fun to do a small animation about George Lucas. this spawned from us watching hours of home video footage at work that included a lot of Lucas footage (i won't go into more detail about that project.) Shant picked up a Lucas impersonation that is quite over-the-top, but is oh-so funny. So we figured, i want more practice animating, he's a writer and is always up for writing shorts, let's put that voice into action.

today, i received the first draft of the script. i'm already really liking it! knowing Shant was going to be writing over the weekend, i decided to work on my part. a quick couple sketches, a few hours spent coloring in photoshop, and here i present my first concept art. i don't want to spoil the story idea too much, but the point of my website is to share the things i am currently working on. so i will share my progress on the art side of things but probably be a little more secretive about the rest.
