Check out the new characters
section! It features awesome pop-up profiles.
Other than characters, I've been hard at work modeling
the cars and environments. I'm trying to get as much done before
September when the semester starts up again.
The next major update will be a video of the opening
sequence with the theme song!
07-27-2010 // WEBSITE UPDATES
I've decided to incorporate some of the new assets into the
website. Some updates include:
As for the status of the project, I'm currently modeling all
the assets (characters, cars, environments) that will be in the
first episode. These are a LOT of assets since most of the models
of the seven episode series are featured in the first episode
alone. After I finish this stage, I'll be able to focus more on
animation and editing.
Lastly, character page coming soon!
07-22-2010 // "DC SPEED" RACER PROMO
New racer promo above.
07-17-2010 // "TOKYO HEAVEN" RACER PROMO, THEME
SONG
We've uploaded a new racer promo (above). More racer promos to
come!
Also, we've licensed a song by The
Kyoto Connection for the opening theme song for each episode!
I will be doing a remix version of it to match the racing theme
of the series. Opening will be released on YouTube soon.
07-11-2010 // PRODUCTION RESUMES
After a long hiatus, production resumes for "Adrenaline
- Street Racing"!
So what happened to me anyways? Well, I decided to attend an
art university and that pretty much took over my life the last
few years. lol. But now I'm back with (hopefully) improved abilities.
The plan is to release the film as a series of webisodes. Rather
than having to wait for me to make an entire 1.5hr movie, I will
release parts of it at a time. The feature-length film will be
divided as so:
"Adrenaline - Street Racing" Episodes
Episode #1 : Fearless (12min) in
production
Episode #2 : Anything In This World (12min)
Episode #3 : While the City Sleeps (12min)
Episode #4 : What Does a Racer Desire (12min)
Episode #5 : One's Worth (12min)
Episode #6 : Hide or Decide (12min)
Episode #7 : Win or Lose (20min)
Each webisode will feature a different street race with the seven
webisodes together being part of a continuing storyline.
I'm a bit disappointed that I had to put this project on hold
for so long. However, it's nothing compared to the development
hell some Hollywood movies go through. A few examples are:
Watchmen, 1986-2007
Indiana Jones (Crystal Skull), 1993-2007
Superman Returns, 1990-2005
V For Vendetta, 1988-2005
Inglorious Bastards, 1997-2008
Speed Racer, 1992-2007
Gangs of New York, 1978-2002
Terminator 3, 1990-2002
The years listed is the time spent just planning and investing
in the movie before actual production even started!
But now I'm back and am looking forward to releasing the first
episode!

IS ADRENALINE?"
(tip: set video resolution to "480p")
Finally, my short promo is up! More details about
the project to come.
06-25-2010 // REGISTRATION
FIXED
That
was annoying but registration is fixed! I don't know why it suddenly
stopped working, but installing the latest version of the script
fixed it.
Anyways, if you'd like to be notified of the movie's release
as well as receive occasional updates, register your email at
the right. If you successfully registered a long time
ago, your email should still be on our list (but you can try registering
again if you're unsure).
More news coming soon!
06-24-2010 // ANNOUNCEMENT
AND VID COMING SOON
It's been awhile but finally, I will have a video for everyone!
The video is already made and will be posted shortly. It's one
minute long and has animation, sound effects, music, and awesomeness
(I hope).
I also made some minor adjustments to the website layout. Also,
look for an announcement about "Adrenaline - Street Racing"
very soon. Unfortunately, it's not that the movie is done; I haven't
been able to work on it for years as I've been in school.
Last note, the registration is still broken, and so
I have removed the buttons. Weird that the script suddenly stopped
working, but it will be fixed soon.
NOTE: When driving on public roads, follow all traffic laws and use
safe driving practices.
For your racing fix, pickup a videogame or go to the track.
