Musica! (by Eddie)

yes, it is an old pic

One thing we have always done is try to embrace our other interests and bring them into animation.  I mean, you can obsess about animation itself as an art form – and there are plenty of people who sit around doing just that – but that’s never really been our thing.  Animation has always been more of a means to get our ideas out there. Music as always, is still a big influence, and I have a few places where you can listen/download my tracks

here, here, and here

And don’t forget the Fwak! jukebox here! (Think it’s time for another one, Lili?)

Well seeing that different cultures start their new year at different times, we’ve decided the Fwak! year officially starts March 1st!  That’s when we can be ‘out with the old and in with the new’.  And what does the new year hold for us?

• A new ‘Rocquita’ short with Cartoon Network Asia (Hello Japan!)
• Goodbye Macromedia Flash.  After 8 years we are truly over you.  Those buggy filters you tantalisingly tempted us with in Flash 8 were the last straw.  And you got an ANNIE AWARD for your inadequate software?  We’re looking forward to working in some new kind of HARMONY for Rocquita

  We hope we never see this error message ever, again!
• Adios Lucha Libre.  We still love you and will be at the matches wherever they are held, be it Compton or Cudahy, Tijuana or South Central - but we have collectively drawn our last luchador. 
• Hello subculture.  Apart from Rocquita, we are looking towards our Dance Crasher project (amongst other music related thingies)
• Bye bye Sydney   Sad but true.  Our studio on Sussex Street is the best, the BEST!  But it ain’t no good to us while we are based in LA.  So a trip is in order to pack everything up this year
• And as we move into Post production, we will finally be done with Los Campeones, the animated feature that has taken up all of our time for the last 20 or so months.  We’ve been posting images along the way…and there are more on the LC Myspace page…but here are a few personal faves

And finally bye bye to Xanga.  This editor is the slowest clunkiest thing ever and has been for far too long.  Not quite as infuriating as Flash (you pay Macromedia a lot more money to be dicked with), but annoying nevertheless. This should be our last post here, but stay tuned for the new address… 

UPDATE:  We are moving here
