Hey avid blog readers! So after several months of working on top secret projects that I can neither show nor talk about, I thought I would share something that I CAN talk about, and that has me very excited!
Those who know me are aware that I am a huge fan of "virtual hip-hop" UK outfit Gorillaz. Those of you who follow their work know that the final music video from the Plastic Beach phase, the video to accompany the track Rhinestone Eyes, was never made due to budgetary constraints, and rather a storyboarded version put up as the official video. Well I have taken it upon myself to create that video in full animation, purely from a fan perspective, and with no financial gain in mind. It just seems like such a shame that these incredible storyboards were never taken to completion, and that the fans of the Gorillaz were never given the conclusion to the Plastic Beach narative. I will keep updates coming on my progress with the video on this page, releasing screen shots etc as often as I can. Watch this space for more Gorillaz Rhinestone Eyes video news!

I love it already!
ReplyDeleteThanks David! I can't wait to get it out there for all the Gorillaz fans to enjoy.
ReplyDeleteThis was a nice surprise as I AM a big Gorillaz fan. I was just going through recently updated blogger blogs ( http://www.blogger.com/changes10.g ) to see what others are doing with their blogger blogs, as I have no life right now, and stumbled onto your blog. Serendipity strikes sometimes.
ReplyDeleteawesome! well i just have to do my best to create the video i know that you and all the other fans have been waiting for!
DeleteI'm so excited
ReplyDeleteI am so glad! I am excited too!
DeleteHows the video coming along?
ReplyDeleteIt is progressing! I have started animation, but right now I am trying to just nail the look and the movement, thanks for your interest!
DeleteRichard, when is your Rhinestone Eyes fan-video going to be released?
ReplyDeletehopefully spring of 2014, but the thing is it's just me making it, with my wife helping out by making the backgrounds, so every time one of us gets a job that is a heavy time commitment (which in this business is almost every one) it delays us a little more...
