Skylantis Kickstart Campaign

Hi I'm Michael Chugg and I wanted to inform you about a project that is being done by Utah Valley University students.

The game is called Skylantis and is about Gizmo the robot who after a 

tragic incident finds his world in ruins. Gizmo's creator, Dr. Esmay has 
disappeared. You must explore his world to find out what has happened 
to his creator and restore Skylantis to its former glory. 


We are currently doing a kickstarter campaign to raise funding so we can
buy the professional licences we need to release the game. The campaign
is live at www.skylantis.com and a video of gameplay is 

We have had the opportunity to have professional companies look at our 
game and review us, "Impressive! Doesn't look like student work."
- Steve Taylor from Wahoo Games 

One of the fun things we are doing with our campaign is what we 
call our "Red vs Blue" challenge. We present a red and a blue option
for something that will affect the game and we are going to let you
decide which way it will go.

This is the university's first time taking a game to the point of full publication
and we are looking for all the support we can find. If you could give us your
support in any way we would greatly appreciate it.

- The Skylantis Team

Animator Survival Guide

I decided to draw the guy from the animator's survival guide. Thought it was pretty humorous.

I have been practicing drawing for my sketchbook for my Survey of Animation class. I am currently at page sixty-seven out of one hundred. Hoping for the best.
