A Depressed Seahorse

Did you know that seahorses are the only species on the planet where the MALES carry the babies? Voices by Myk Gerard Ranger (www.mykgerard.com), Animation & Story by Stephanie Yuhas (www.shinygrape.com), Technical Assistance from Kristoffe Broduere and Lowell Boston.

Gestation Sensation explores a male seahorse's discomfort during pregnancy. The film was traditionally animated (with a pencil & paper!) and then composited with After FX at the Philadelphia University of the Arts for my junior thesis project. This entire film was created in about three weeks because I had to scrap the original idea due to..err..."Copyright Issues."

Believe it or not, at the beginning of the semester, I began production on a film called "Fabian Fish", a tale about a clownfish and a yellow tang trying to escape from a fishbowl (but the clownfish keeps forgetting "the plan" every few seconds.) Sound familiar? Yeah.

A month before the due date, my professor played the teaser for "Finding Nemo." I thought someone was playing a VERY expensive joke on me!!!

I was basically in mid-production of the freakin "Dentists Office" scene in that movie - annoying pig-tailed, brace-faced girl and all! What the HECK are the odds of that? So, I created Gestation Sensation and prayed that there wouldn't be a scene in Finding Nemo of a seahorse exploding into a cloud of babies! (It didn't happen! I'm still safe!)

That is an awesome story about Fabian Fish. Man, how freaky! Not sure if channeling Disney is good or bad for your future career though, lol.

Ha ha, channeling Disney..that gave me the metal picture of someone sitting over a crystal ball trying to psychically get all their corporate secrets. I think I see the next big hit....it looks like "Brother Bear 2 -- On Ice -- The Bear Strikes Back." I'm sure it'll be a hit :P

safe, for how long? :) they'll find you

[lotusdove]

Yes, perhaps they have bugged my house. I just had a REALLY similar incident last year with a screenplay called "Museum Monster." The longline? "What happens at the museum at night." Dammit! Thankfully, I hadn't started actual production on it when I heard about the Hollywood Blockbuster "Night at the Museum" but still...it's REALLY annoying!
