What’s everyone think?[/quote]
I was part of the production team and I’m honestly glad the fans like it. We had a lot of fun doing the show and are hoping for a second season.
A little insight on the creation of the show:
-there were approximately 150 characters created for the show. Without counting the reuses (that is the same character dressed up differently or made up differently). This is unheard of (at least to my knowledge) in 3d animation for broadcast.
-episode 1 originally started out very differently, and now that the show is airing I think I can mention that in the original draft, right at the start of the show you found out why Commander Adam of the Confederation and Darph Bobo were after Chode. This included a scene where Adam tries to find Six’s reset button with his middle finger- need I say more (funny that some people think its too crude – it was toned down alot).
-the show was created on 3dsMax 4.2 w/ Character Studio.
-aside from the director, there were 5 teams directly involved in production, modelling, textures, animation, lighting, and FX (wrap-up).
-all of the modelling and textures, plus most of the animation cycles were created at Cinegroupe. Five episodes were animated at the Montreal studio, the others were sub-contracted to a studio in Malasya.
-the opening was NOT created by Cinegroupe. I think Roman film opened a small studio and they took care of the opening (personally it doesn’t match the quality of the shows done in Montreal – then again I’m biased 🙂
I’m certainly proud of my contribution to the show – taking into account all of the delays and time constraints… I think everyone involved is aswell. Thanks for keeping Chode alive,
