i see you have enough people bitching at you telling you to make another movie so i think i'll just give my thoughts on your animation as a whole. Your movies are accurately described in the following adjectives. Beautiful, poetic, funny, joyful, powerful, emotional, tragic, and wondrous. you are a brilliant animator and it makes sense why Disney would want such a talented passionate individual. i'll play the game and i'll keep waiting for more of the world that brought happiness to many. take your time.
thank you so much for making these vids! While each one revolves around a specific technique, it is also a great peek into the process of arguably the best animator on Newgrounds. Looking forward to watching all of them!

he doesnt need a real job when he is that good at animating.... i would love to donate if that ment you would get back to the last of the dashkin... but even then i got no money...as a fan i just wanted to say pls make more and keep up the good work....
You want our monaye from our parents for us to give to you.
You worked with disney and all that but YOU aren't working there now because of a reason YOU are not making money because of your own choice to work by yourself and munch off our money. get a REAL job. mofo
After the Brackenwood game, I'll be working bit by bit on the Bitey story. Most of my time these days is taken up by freelance so it's tough finding space in the day for my own stuff.
Say whether you will continue the adventures of the Dashkin, jaestem interesting what will be next, and pozatym I do still Bitey is the last Dashin or not? Whether this sorceress che with him to fight, and if so who will win? Do you find that may have some brothers of the Bitey knows? And that will have your friends? Your last movie Lost in the Dashkin gives much to thinking, I will refer awaited comments, I greet!
Another question the bca fx animation course will this be available to purchase at a later stage as a digital download? Your work has inspired me for years but dont have money till i start my job next year feb so would really love to do the course then.....
the course is available now and you can start it at any time. Re: your previous message, yeah the campaign is well and truly over, but I may sell some of the rewards later this year.
Wow, that's neat. It's kinda weird seeing the actual face of the mind behind Brackenwood.
I did have a question, though. Is this course designed for people who already have some skill with the programs involved and animation in general, or is it meant to be accessible even to those who have little to no experience, and hope to use this as their first stepping stone?
Also, a little off-topic...I can't help but notice in the Last of the Dashkin description, you mentioned you wouldn't leave us high and dry for another two years, but, uh, as of the writing of this comment (November 15th, 2011) the two year mark is about a month away. Is the sequel to last of the Dashkin anywhere close to done, or is the game meant to be that sequel? Is the length of time since LotD a symptom of losing your sponsors for the Dashkin game? If so, it's understandable that your timetable would be knocked astray.
Thanks for the hard work you put into Brackenwood, it's always a treat, and always well worth the wait.
Yep the course is aimed at complete beginners, but we also have experienced animators in the membership. Even 3D people.. the head VFX guy at Blizzard Entertainment on WoW is actually doing my FX course :D
As for the delay, yes the sponsorship thing changed everything. If we had managed to finish the game on time it would have been before 2 years were up, but life happens and things get delayed unfortunately :/
Very nice. You're easily the most inspirational figure on NG and have been since you arrived. It's nice to see that extra bit of outreach to the community :) Best wishes, Mr. Phillips.
I underestimated the interest there'd be in the course, so I'm looking into ways of offering it to higher-pledge backers. I may post on the Updates tab soon.

Hey, out of curiosity, is the Dashkin project dead? Or am I being a total asshole by asking in the comments section of one of your videos?
1/1/12
I'll try, but I don't think I'll be able to manage it.
By the way, nice animations. Keep it up!
12/8/11
Hey, you alright? You must've gone through general anesthesia and the knife by now. Did they replace the valve or fix it?
all fixed now. Replaced the valve with a mechanical one. It ticks like a clock.

8/10/11
