The Grasshopper

George Grey dresses up as The Grasshopper. In his own mind, he's a superhero fighting bad guys, but in reality, things aren't so simple.

you know i think your voice is one of the very best things about your work. it has these facettes that good actor's voices have. i'd ask you immediately, if i had something to voice-over! do you sing?

(it's satya btw :))

[ozjthomas]

I sing badly. Hi satya, I missed you :,(

[hippiending]

oh... to be honest: i've been hiding and watching hayao miyazaki movies for days on end, singing my heart out in between so i'd forget how freaked out i am by my speaking voice... i can't even get myself to record the clip i promised to charlie :(

maybe... i could try to draw some filling frames instead? i got my digitizerboard by now, and a brandnew copy of photoshop too...

or if there's anything else i could do, please tell me!

[ozjthomas]

lol we are opposites then, i guess. :p not that i like my speaking voice really. i'm glad you have your digitizerboard, how is that working for you?

That is sad. This kind of reminds me of Candide.

[ozjthomas]

Interesting. I had to look it up because I was not familiar with Candide(voltaire, right?) Seemed pretty interesting, I can see why it reminds you of it. I was going for a certain naivete with the superhero dude.

[hippiending]

yeah, it's not that i "like" my singing voice either, it just "works" better than speaking :)

it's great! i miss the resistance paper gives, but i'm getting better :)

[ozjthomas]
