New Cartoon

Right now I'm toying with the idea of starting another short cartoon. "Burned Out" is in post-production (I guess that's what you'd call it, I don't have professional film experience so I have no clue) and I need a new project on which to work. Currently the Halo Reach Beta game has been taking up a lot of my free time, but that will be expiring soon so I'll actually have ambition to be productive again.

I'm in the process of drawing up a storyboard for a new cartoon called "Proofs". Traditionally, pen and paper are used for storyboards, but I prefer to use Adobe Flash. It saves a few trees by not using paper and it's also easier to go from storyboard to finished product if I create both in the same software. I believe Toon Boom Animate and Toon Boom Storyboard Pro let you do this as well, but I haven't had a chance to play around with the software enough to where I would feel comfortable creating a cartoon in them.

Here's a screenshot from "Proofs" so far. If I had to put a time frame on this project I would say it's about 1% complete so it may be awhile before anything official is up and running.
