Welcome to Darkmoor is going slowly,  I'm way behind schedule, but I still think I might finish it in October.  I've really got to work at it, though.  I had previously accounted for some possible delays, so I can still get back on track.

Well  I did 'enter' THAC,  and even though I didn't finish the film for THAC I did finish it.

It wouldn't be unreasonable for me to finish my chicken film in the next four months but at my current rate I might not.

I also have an outline for.an episodic project that could turn into 25 pages but I feel like getting pre-prod done before the year is out is unlikely.

Here are my goals, and their progress:

Start a weekly brickfilm series (Sliders)
        While I still plan on doing Sliders, (and re-starting the CinematiCritics), both of these projects were previously put on hiatus until August. In the case of Sliders, it will most certainly be put off until September (due to the BiM summer contest), however, the CinematiCritics should premier in July!

Score over 30 brickfilms over the next year
        Counting Funmi's Hollow Earth 2 - I've currently worked on the scores for 8 brickfilms, not including my own! I'll have to work hard at completing this one, but am happy just to score films at all!

Finish my 5 years in the making Johnny Thunder brickfilm
        This project, obviously, has to be put on the shelf (temporarily) for the Bricks in Motion summer contest. I look forward to picking up the half-finished Johnny Thunder script after the contest ends, and will continue to script, build, and film before Christmas. I'd really love to complete a Johnny Thunder film before Christmas, and THAC.

And, last but not least:
Make one brickfilm that features an all star cast of brickfilmers (like Vandy, Smeagol, and Nathan Wells)
I would love to accomplish this in my "Darkness and Light" contest entry!

• I began working on this film. (See my production topic). I don't know if I will finish it this year. I'm putting it on hold until after the BiM summer contest.

• While I can't say I have "perfected" my animation, I do think I am developing a style, and have definitely improved animation since the start of this year!

• I have been doing this. All of my films this year so far have been different genres, and my contest entry will be also.

"Whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." - 1 Corinthians 10:31b

1. Forget the feature film, I learned a lesson. Maybe after college...

2. That's still happening.

3. I have done this for every month of 2015.

"Bless you for making this." -Sloth 2016 * on "Chicken Shaped Lighthouse Attacks Police"

Ephesians 4:29 -"Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers."

My goals:
Complete Appetite Lost by my birthday (June 16)
Make a brickfilm that features a female protagonist
Make a brickfilm that uses brick-built humanoid puppets, like David Pagano

None of these are happening this year. Appetite Lost got delayed by the animation for the Bricks in Motion documentary. I still have half of the film to animate, and a ton of post-production work. So I'm aiming for a 2016 spring/summer release.

As for my other two goals, I have films planned for them, but they won't be happening until Appetite Lost and another Alex and Derrick film are made.

Check Time:

Start a weekly brickfilm series (Sliders)
Both Sliders TAS and The CinematiCritics obviously aren't happening any time soon. At the earliest, CinematiCritics will start around Christmas, as, I still have to work out the episodes, and get guest reviewers on board.

Score over 30 brickfilms over the next year
I purposely put this goal high, as, I wanted to do as much as I can - not realistically thinking I'd actually reach a "30th Brickfilm" this year. However, my BiM profile shows 9 brickfilms, and I've done about 14 unreleased/unfinished or uncredited brickfilms on top of that. So, I think I'm at 23-ish. Not too bad!

Finish my 5 years in the making Johnny Thunder brickfilm
Currently, I'm working on an Alpha Team brickfilm (which I've almost been working on for as long, anyway) so, once it's done, I can start on Johnny Thunder! And, while I doubt those will be done in just a month or two, I probably will release those before next spring! - Certainly above my expectations when originally coming up with my goals.

Make one brickfilm that features an all star cast of brickfilmers (like Vandy, Smeagol, and Nathan Wells)
Alpha Team, Johnny Thunder, and even a possible Scooby-Doo or Batman based short won't really cover this. I'm wanting to save this kind of brickfilm for something really special! I would like to do it this year, though, and may delay Adventurers for this project.

I might even collaborate with some other brickfilmers on the script, just to make the film more of a "group effort" sort of unique!

The end of the year is fast approaching! Now is the time to check our goals for the last time!

For me, I can just copy/paste my previous post.

Here's my list.

Let's see...
1) Get 2 episodes of Holding Our Own out in 1 calendar year.

FAIL  I really had a lot of personal struggles this year that kept me from getting done episode 4. 

2) Write scripts for episodes 7 and 8.

FAIL.  There is acompleted  9, however.
3) Organize the loose and stray unsorted bricks that I just have lying all over the place!!!!!  AAAH!!!
