Thanks!

A big thanks to those of you who purchased animations so far from Scaremation! It’s been a successful grand opening!

We are eager to create more, and you’ll see a large variety of styles and price ranges for next year. Andrew will be joining in on the animating, and I already have a lot of ideas that I’m sure you guys will love. We’ll be working on them through the year, and are always open to hear your requests.

Thanks again for your support!  Have a great Halloween!

New Portable Micro HD Projector

Apparently this is currently a Tiger Direct Canada exclusive from LG . A LED HD projector weighing in at less then 2 pounds. You could cut a slot in the back of a tombstone to hold it! Accepts USB input. That is crazy small…

More info here.

 

 

No reviews yet as it is just coming out. Retailing for CAN$700.

Wake up! It’s finally done!

Hell has frozen over… Pigs are flying… and I’ve finally finished my latest Scaremation Halloween window animation, Skeleton Zombies!

It was delayed a few times (because I kept thinking of new things to add, as well as finding new ways to improve what was there already), but now it’s done, and ready for purchase at our Scaremation website!

Thanks to all of you who waited patiently, as I obsessively tinkered! I hope you all really enjoy the final work! I’m certainly very proud of it.

A revised preview clip is available for viewing here.

For the rest of the evening, I’m officially ‘on holiday’!

Cheers!

A (projector) light at the end of the tunnel!

I’m finally nearing the completion of my latest haunt animation, Skeleton Zombies, for Scaremation!  The latest test render is looking great, and I just have a few more tweeks to do before I’m letting it go.

In the meantime, for all of you who have been anxiously waiting for me to finally release the damn thing, I’ve included a sample work-in-progress preview clip (click this link to view) on our product page, so you can see what I’ve been working on all these weeks (and judge whether all my delays are worth it!).

I’m planning on having it ready for purchase tomorrow (Friday, October 7th)… although, you know me, it may be delayed another day!  (But, it’s looking very close, and I think this time I’m ready to release it!)

Perfectionism, the true horror…

The sound mix for the Skeleton Zombies went well, and it’s all looking great.  However, me being who I am, I want to tweek and add a few more things to make the sequence even better, after watching the test render.  So, I’ll be working on that today.

In the meantime, I’m planning on putting up a sample clip for you guys to check out.  I’ll just add a few things this morning, then render the sample out and upload it (Thursday, October 6) and set up a link to it on the Products page of the Scaremation site.

Again, thanks for the patience, and I apologize for the delays!  It’s ‘done’, but I’m just putting final touches on it before releasing it.

Zombies in the sound booth

The Skeleton Zombie animation is now in the audio editing stage.  I’ve been working day and night on the animation, adding and improving on it, but trying to wrap it up so you guys can get your hands on it!

I’m doing the audio today, and am hoping to have it wrapped up by tonight (Wednesday, Oct 5).  So, hopefully it’ll be available to you Thursday.  I’ll post an announcement as soon as it’s up.

Thanks for your patience!  I just want to make sure this is solid before releasing it.

Painfully close…

As you may have read, there’s a SLIGHT delay on the latest (Skeleton Zombie) window animation, as I want to give myself a bit more time to add more things, and really make it look good.  The original animation was done a while ago, but I keep thinking of things to add (effects and actions), so I’m going to have to push the release date until sometime next week (…that being the first week of October).

In the meantime, here’s some work-in-progress preview pics to show you where I’m at, and what you can look forward to!

Hopefully, I run out of ideas soon, so I can finally wrap this thing up and go on to another one!  Apologies to those waiting on this one, but it should be worth the wait!

Zombie skeletons coming this week!

Coming this week!  Skeleton zombies.  A new window animation available for purchase!
Watch for it (and a preview clip) in the Products section!

From Laer: Sorry!  Very slight delay!  It should be available sometime next week.  I just wanted to give myself a bit more time, as I’ve been adding things and really trying to make this look great with some new effects.  I’ll be working on haunt stuff (detailing physical props), but I should be finishing it up early next week.  I just don’t want to rush to get it done for Friday, and compromise the quality.  Plus, I keep thinking of cool stuff to add!
