M dot cannot Stop
So yeh like hardly anyone at all has seen WATS yet and I have not put the DVD out just yet...but... I have already started outlining my next animated feature film which is about ummm...."the end of the world"...and at the same time I be mega planning a live action Samurai film that I will shoot as I am working on my next animated feature... I will just say that I am very excited about both projects...The next animated feature which from now on I will call "____" because I dont want to reveal the secret name XD...but yeh its gonna be so great, a lot more serious and with a steadier style than my totally insan0 little movie "WE are the Strange"....WATS is my art...I tried and tried to make it entertainment but what can I say...I M like an artist or something?! Well anyway I plan to spend the next week working on the two new films then I will get back to WATS and add a prologue onto it before the next screening March 1st at the Cinequest film festival....its nice to think about new projects...new horizons...new possibilities...

I'm hyped as hell to see We Are The Strange, and now your talking about 2 more films already?? My poor little brain can't handle the ubernessity!
From the look and sound of things sir apparently nobody is enjoying your creation that much.
Which is a shame to think cause it looks like a heck of alot of fun.
Me and a few people were suddenly reminded about your film so we've been searching the web for info and such all day...which is what led me to your blog.
None of us are fancy or expensive enough to make it to sundance so all we really can do is wait and hope that you'll put the movie out on DVD or something soon.
We're really looking forward to checking it out.
With that, good luck with your next and future projects.
Um, Mr. Strange, In addition to executive producing the Old Mill Film Club's next production, Dexter's Odyssey: A Tale of the Tim Box Wars, Your next animated feature after We are the Strange will be.....DINOSAUR KINGDOM: AN EPIC NEW VIEW OF A LOST WORLD. It will encompass the Age Of Dinosaurs, from the very first dinosaurs, 228 million years ago to the dinosaurs' extinction, 65 million years ago. The full length film had to be scientifically accurate, especially putting the dinosaurs into their correct time periods and places. You will contract extra staff. Such artists as Bernie Wrightson and Douglas Henderson or David Krentz or whatever I'm saying will help conceptualize Dinosaur Kingdom and will do hundreds of conceptual illustrations and dozens and dozens of conceptual sculptures. To Bring Dinosaur Kingdom to life, The plan is to use a combination of Computer Generated Imagery (which provides many of the bulk of the film), Phil Tippett-like Go-Motion animation (for many other portions of the film) and Animatronic creatures, digitally composited into live action backgrounds, minature sets and digital CG environments and matte paintings. Computer models of the dinosaurs will be scanned from maquettes and will also be animatable via Direct Input Devices (DID for short), Go-motion puppets of the Dinosaurs will have to be realistic in order for the computer to match their movements. Animatronic versions of them will be done for close-ups and some full-scale animatronic creatures will be built. A Large-scale minature set of the whole of the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous worlds will be built as other minatures will be plan. The digital effects artists will be working on Dinosaur walk cycles, will be researching techniques for the feathers and fuzz of some dinosaurs, and will built the whole of the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous worlds, tree by tree. The theatrical aspect ratio will be 2.35:1. The film's total running time will be 10 hours and 48 minutes, even though the film will be split into three volumes as it is deemed as too long: 177 minutes for Volume I, 178 minutes for Volume II, and 179 minutes for Volume III. Since, like the Film Club's Dexter's Odyssey, Dinosaur Kingdom will be a independent production, Dinosaur Kingdom will be distributed by me under the Tim Box Company Banner, and will have its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival when its finished. The Budget for this will be $678 million, perhaps the most expensive stop motion film ever made. Dinosaur Kingdom will be animated and shot back to back while will be release back to back. Sound Design might be created by Skywalker Sound and the dinosaurs' calls will be mixed from real animal calls and from the electronic synthesizer. And the music, with the exotic world-beat percussion will be done by either Mark Mancina, or Howard Shore, or Harry Gregson-Williams or any other composer you want to choose. Dinosaur Kingdom will be even greater than Walking with Dinosaurs. So have fun with Dinosaur Kingdom and the Film Club's Dexter's Odyssey and what will you think of Dinosaur Kingdom?
