Been working for many months, but thanks to my constant feedbacks for him, an old friend of mine has uploaded "Roaring Bear", a campfire ghost story he always wanted to see fully animated. I provided the majority of this project, especially for the 2&1/2D format of the first part of the short. The second part is cel animation, but I still provided layouts, transitions, shadow effects, and any additional visuals. I worked on editing with the director, anything to go above-and-beyond his...not-really-hooking-me animatics. [Those you can still see on his YouTube profile.]
Check the hypertext link above to watch it yourselves. Link also provided in my profile. Happy Halloween! :)

Hi Sari Eliza - congratulations on completing your short! It's super entertaining and I love the color palette you chose!! Is this a series you are looking to start?

I liked "Roaring Bear," Sari Eliza. It's kind of part animation part documentary. Unique.

To Maurice Vaughan: it's more of a horror narration, and narrating is Jordan's strength in writing. Dialogue is more of my specialty, and that helps when I provide reviews for his drafts.
To Shellie Schmals: Palettes for the layouts were easier than the characters. Skin tones was a challenge for me, but the director, as this is his story, was the ideal feedback in order to create accurate and well-represented human colors. Also, he has more ghost stories in his YouTube channel in the form of animatics. I have a different series planned out, as seen in my various postings here and other social media stuff...

I noticed the horror narration element in the film, Sari Eliza, even the music at the opening. Jordan's an excellent narrator. You did a great job on the dialogue.
