Happy YouTube Day!
Jan. 17th, 2007 05:40 pmThe second trailer for Nocturna, which I've been waiting for since seeing the first one about five years ago. Apparently it's actually coming out this year. I'll believe that when I see it.
Their next project ... looks kind of Iron Gianty but more about the 'giant' than what happens around it.
Pretty demo reel. Preeettyyyy.
Another pretty demo reel, though this guy really likes his girls, and some of them may be a bit too undressed for the more sensitive viewers.

Date: 2007-01-18 03:09 am (UTC)Both "Nocturna" and "Mr. Collieu" look absolutely STUNNING.... I love the character designs so much. Now, is this the same guy who did Triplets of Belleville? I don't know any animator's names, but the style looks kinda similar.
These seriously look good. I am all in favor of bringing back hand-drawn animation.
I might have to suggest that I come up and see Nocturna with you one weekend. Would you be cool with that? :) (Because I know I would enjoy it 50x more if I also had your commentary.)

Though by the time it comes out ... I might be down there ... we shall see what the fates have in store. I'd love to show you my fine city someday regardless of fickle fortune and job situations.
I don't think it's the same designer ... They're both very European-looking but this guy's got a much fresher, lighthearted style than the Triplets guy, who is a fantastically competent designer in his own right but rather more at the grotesque end of the scale. I don't know any names either, so I might be entirely wrong.
