| 12/2009: December 2009: NEWS: "SHOCK INVASION", the third and final film in the "limited animation cut out" experimental style is currently seeking distribution. Interested DVD companies looking for animated, gory cartoons can email Frank in the Contact page. In other news, work on smaller projects is taking up a lot of free time, but a fourth 3D computer animated "sci-fi action" film is underway and will focus heavily on better storytelling, dialog, script, animation (seriously improved), pacing and so on. Planned to be my "showcase" animated film I've been wanting to make since I was a younger. Proving to myself that 3 animated feature length films can be made by a single person, all effort will be put into making this fourth film my best effort yet. The first 3 were practice in other words...

Black Arro Productions is pleased to announce the new "CITY OF ROTT" preview trailer can be seen at www.ifilm.com. Don't miss it zombie fans. It's perhaps the goriest zombie trailer you'll see this year. June 17, 2005. FSUDOL fills us in on the progress of "CITY OF ROTT". "Things are going great on the new Black Arro Productions film, "CITY OF ROTT". This is seriously some of my best work ever put to DVD. The action kicks ass, with some really gory battle scenes not to be missed by zombie fans who prefer action. The story hasn't been second-handed either, which integrates the zombies throughout, while still focusing on the individual main characters. I'm very pleased with the progress, and zombie fans have something new to look forward to." -FSudol "Cheesy" ARCHIVE TEXT BELOW: (What was I thinking?) BlackArro Productions, www.blackarro.com, is branching out into the dark realm of animated Horror for it's first film feature. The untitled project features Frank's high detail illustration work, along the lines of some of the gory creatures drawn by Frank. On a side note, this project is not related to Frank's ifilm.com "Rise Zombie Rise" Short, which took a more humorous approach. These zombies are not as expressive, don't run, and don't have as much intelligence as the cartoon zombie portrayed in that short animation skit. "I'm a fan of George A. Romero's Dead films. Ever since I was a kid and saw Day of the Dead, I was captivated by the rotting zombies hordes. That film is really gritty. And then there's Sam Raimi's Evil Dead Series, which has a ton of gore and good "zombies"..." "Anyway, I've always wanted to do an uncut zombie film of my own, with an original take on things, but remaining faithful to the mass of zombies. Such simple minded creatures, but very dangerous if you get close, or bit. Great horror, where the world is consumed by filth ridden, rotting corpses walking a dead land where few survivors remain. I think that's an awesome atmosphere to capture and put on film in a new way. "Zombies should be slow if they're rotting. I'm making sure they don't run, mainly cause a zombie is more fun to watch, knowing you have the advantage over the stupid, weak, clumsy corpse. Too bad there's a thousand more waiting outside. Check out the image below to get an idea where I'm heading with it." -FSudol Anyway, here's your first glimpse at an exclusive frame from the feature, which is being held under wraps till it's release draws near in 2005...

-BlackArro Productions- BlackArro Productions is developing animated films relating to the horror sci-fi/action genre at present.

Being a horror fan since he was a kid, Frank believes BlackArro has plenty of new pathways and fresh stories to offer anyone interested in the horror genre.

| Wanna Learn how to Draw Cartoons? So you're drawing basic stuff, but it still feels flat? The next step, is to learn how to angle your character so they're not always facing front. Maybe you can make one eye smaller than the other. The smaller eye is farther back from the one in the foreground. This is getting some perspective in your drawings. Next, work on the other parts. Soon, your drawings will feel like they're not so flat anymore... But keep perspective in mind. Angle things if you have to... -FSudol | |||||||||||||||||||
