Episode 001 – Egg Chicken Dragon
This launch episode 001 – Follows Vincent on his nightly quest to have a late night snack. From the outskirts of town and into the Alternate Circuit and into Alterations Etc. This is where Vincent finds himself bothered by Carl the shopkeeper and is abruptly taken away by time. Vincent’s journey back home is interrupted by old man Lou with a broom. Close to home, get home Vincent, home is where the minimizer is.
Brief realization and why is this taking so long?
The Opposite 12th Hour (TO12H) has been in my creative wheel house since 2015 so at this point in time a bit over 3 years (2018). I thought okay I’ll write six episodes (9-12 pages each, shorts) and have them done in a year, fully produced, written, storyboarded, voiced, animatics, animated and edited. Create some original designs inspired by TO12H and screen print some shirts, that was a another learning curve and another story (but I did it.) Clearly doing all this by yourself just doesn’t happen at that pace, at least not for me. So the six initial scripts grew into eight and at this point rest at ten, with two that need a bit more work with the goal of getting the first five fully finished before I move onto the second half of the series.
The first three episodes, all live in animatics. That’s what I’m currently going off of for the cleaned up animation and backgrounds as well as rerecording the voices. Episodes 004 and 005 are done as far as drafts and I’ve recorded and edited the audio track for those and they sound great.
I look forward to introducing more of the world of The Opposite 12th Hour in the near future. – bryan
About The Logo Design
The design of The Opposite 12th Hour logo is mainly a logotype of graphic in that each character was crafted out of shapes and lines and bezier handles. I was trying to convey a sense of something familiar and nostalgic while aesthetically trying to find the right balance that would distinctly be recognizable to the overall thematic storytelling of The Opposite 12th Hour.
