VR
Check it out!
I'm stoked that this thing is being received well. It's a really fun project to work on, and very excited for the new talent throwing down in this weird ocean.
WATER BEAR IS THE WORLD'S FIRST ANIMATED 360 DEGREE COMEDY
Hilariously weird is a good title for the memoir that I'll never write.
Behold, the first virtual reality comedy animation series!
Featuring the voice talent of Kate Berlant, Lucas Kavner, Amanda Lund, Rob Huebel, and myself!
It started out with four of us in a musician friend's workspace to record one episode, the two actors huddled underneath a blanket with a microphone, and most recently has grown to a full cast recording in a studio.
The shares on this thing are fun to watch blossom, and people are loving this strange fish out of water story.
Many thanks to Alex Paplinger and Michael Ashton for having me on to record three of these extremely fun episodes.
Studio goals - three separate recording rooms, an abundance of microphones, music stands, and a bomb mixing room. After building my own tiny box for recording, I'm only more impressed with the mastery required to put together something like this.
Octopus is coming back at you in this immersive animated series, which is soon to hit virtual reality screens errywhere. Stoked to have been with this project from the beginning and see it evolve. The other cast is insanely talented. Their names rhyme with Bate Kerlant, Lamanda Mund, and Hob Ruebel. As always the writing is a boatload of fun. It's all being produced by a savvy group of guys, who are jumping head first into the ocean of possibility that is VR.
Lookit! Last month/year I voiced a cartoon octopus for a virtual reality scene. If you haven't tried VR yet, bug your friend who has one to give it a whirl. It's pretty crazy how entertaining it is. I can't wait to share this one once it's up.
Happy New Year!
