Atomic Robo: Last Stop

[Bob The Mercenary]

First off, it's about damn time!

Second, when can we expect a hint as to what the plot is going to be about? And I like how Brian's name is completely absent from the Fictory's blog post. "Scott's vision." xD

Congrats on getting animated!

[Green Spanner]

Pretty damn excited, me.

Of course, you realise there is no more running right? You're going to have to decide what Robo's voice sounds like...

[Loyal]

Moving up in the world, Brian, good show!

I always figured Robo was vaguely british sounding.

[Melfice]

It's a short-film, but will it be for the cinema's or straight to DVD, or what?

[Wigmund]

I vote for Clancy Brown.

[EVILNess]

I've always pictured Robo's voice as a kind of metallic film noir detective.

Probably straight to YouTube or Vimeo.

I think they've already got their cast lined up.

[Sky Warrior Bob]

How long is this short film going to be? Or has that yet to be determined?

Also, can you tell us what time period the story will deal with? The press release is lacking much needed details, and I wouldn't mind hearing anything new that there is to share.

Important Questions:

Is Brian writing the script or at least have a heavy influence on the script?

The storyboard is reminiscent of Scott's art, but still different. The poster is difficult to tell but seems very similar to Scott's work. Is Scott on the animation team or are the artists simply using a style similar to his?

[Kurosen]

I wrote a script for the short film. They made some changes and additions, but the bulk of it is mine.

Their animators are basing their style on Scott's style since, y'know, Scott's style is a big part of Robo.

You may have answered this in a general sense when discussing potential film or animation before, but will this animation fit within the continunity of the comics, or will it be considered "based on."

[Melfice]

Probably straight to YouTube or Vimeo.

If that's the case, please make sure us Old Worlders (Europeans) can watch it too!

[Tev]

You are all missing the most important question: Will there be Dr. Dinosaur? Because there needs to be.

Nope! Sorry.

This shouldn't be an issue. Limitations of that kind are based on selling rights to certain regions. We're not selling anything to anyone with these projects. So, no effort will be made to limit their online distribution.

I'm going with "based on." These are largely fan works.

[Bells]

This is really really awesome. Trully hope it's just one more stepping stone towards something even greater! congrats!

But, as an annoying fan i do have a couple of questions...

Is it traditional animation? Flash based? CG based?

Also, Brian, do you have any saying or overseeing over the cast or the overall production or are you just letting the team do their thing?

[Kurosen]

I think it's a mix of traditional cell animation and some CG.

Scott and I aren't involved in the production at all. We gave them a script to play with, promised not to sue them for doing the animation, and that's about it.
