That was a pretty amusing jnterview. Hard to believe hes still going after all these years
He's still going and makin' it happen!
It was quite a process for these "interviews."
- I'd sit down with the artist via Skype.
- We'd talk about various things for roughly 60 - 90 minutes (I would not be in character).
- Then I'd have to go back through the video, log their dialogue, then try and piece together a conversation and create dialogue for the animated character.
- Script out how the shots would flow.
- I'd record Bearver's dialogue.
- Edit the video when imported into Flash.
- Animate the character and then - in theory - the segment was finished!
Each interview segment took 3 weeks on average from start to finish.
