¡Nuevo teaser de "La Dama y la Muerte"!
Ya ha salido un nuevo teaser de nuestro corto "La Dama y la Muerte" ("The Lady and the Reaper").A new teaser of our shortfilm "The Lady and the Reaper" is now available.
Además del segundo premio en Art Futura que ya anuncié en su momento, el corto ha sido premiado en el Festival de Alcine, de Alcalá de Henares, con nada menos que tres premios: Premio del público, Premio especial de Canal + al mejor corto de animación y Premio a la mejor banda sonora (compuesta por el genial Sergio de la Puente). Por si todo esto fuera poco, además ha sido preseleccionado para los Oscars, que aunque de momento no significa que vaya a estar nominado, es un paso a tener en cuenta :) Para el que aún no lo haya visto, se está proyectando en 3D estereoscópico (con gafas) en los cines Kinépolis delante de algunas películas 3D, como Toy Story 3D.

In addition to the Second Award in Art Futura that I already announced before, the shortfilm has been awarded in Alcine Festival (Alcalá de Henares) for three times: Audience Award, Special Canal + award to the best animation shortfilm and Best original soundtrack award (composed by the great Sergio de la Puente). If all this were not enough, it has also been pre-selected for the Oscar. Although it doesn't mean it is going to be nominated, it's an important step to have in mind :)

The secret life of Suckers
Nuestro corto, La Dama y la Muerte, ha ganado el segundo premio de ArtFutura. Y el tercer premio lo ha ganado Suckers, una serie de animación realizada por Genoma Animation y producida por BRB y Screen21 en la que también colaboro, como ya he soltado en otros posts anteriores. Míos son el diseño de los personajes, logotipo y las animáticas de algunos capítulos. En realidad me siento un poquito más que todo eso porque llevo involucrado en la serie desde el concepto original, en cuya creación y desarrollo también fui partícipe (que no artífice :P) aportando ideas y conceptos, muchos de los cuales se han quedado, por lo que lo siento un poco "mi criatura" :D El caso es que, aunque no se ha empezado a emitir aún, ya hay algunos capítulos en Youtube, colgados por BRB como adelanto, así que no he podido resistirme a colgarlos yo también aquí. Espero que os gusten. Son capítulos cortos dirigidos al público infantil. La serie la ha comprado Disney XD en Estados Unidos y Japón, lo que, según dicen, la convierte en la primera serie 100% española adquirida por Disney. ¡Mola! :D
Our shortfilm, The Lady and the Reaper, has won the second award of ArtFutura. The third one has been for Suckers, an animation series by Genoma Animation Studios and produced by BRB and Screen21. I work in this series too doing all the character designs, the logo and some animatics. Actually, I feel a little more than that because I've been involved in this project from its birth, in the very first brainstormings, contributing with ideas and concepts, so somehow I feel it kind of my "little baby" :P The point is BRB has uploaded some chapters to Youtube, even though the series isn't on TV yet, so I couldn't resist to post them here too :) I hope you like them. The series has been bought by Disney XD in USA and Japan, what I've heard that makes it the first 100% Spanish series sold to Disney ever. Cool!!

The Lady and the Reaper (Teaser)
Por fin se ha estrenado La Dama y la Muerte (The Lady and the Reaper) en los cines y en los festivales. Como ya posteé en su momento, este es el corto que decidimos hacer en Kandor Moon cuando terminámos El Lince Perdido y antes de comenzar con la producción del siguiente largo. Está dirigido y guionizado (entre otras muchas más cosas) por Javier Recio. Yo, por mi parte, he llevado el tema de previsualización y la supervisión de las cámaras, además de animar algunos planos (concretamente algunos de los que salen en el teaser, entre otros). Aquí cuelgo el teaser para que abráis boca, pero no tardéis en ir a verla en pantalla grande si tenéis oportunidad. Se proyectará en muchos festivales, tanto españoles como extranjeros. Por lo pronto, durante los días 29, 30, 31 de Octubre y 1 de Noviembre se va a proyectar en ArtFutura, que tendrá lugar en las siguientes ciudades: Alicante · Barcelona · Buenos Aires · Cádiz · Gijón · Granada · Huarte-Pamplona · Madrid · Murcia · Palma · Segovia · Valladolid · Vigo · Zaragoza. Podéis ver el programa en la web http://www.artfutura.org/v2/. También podéis seguir el blog del corto, donde encontraréis las últimas noticias y material curioso de la producción. ¡Espero que os guste!

Finally, The Lady and the Reaper can be seen in the big screen. It will be shown in many festivals and cinemas all around Spain and many other countries. It has already been shown in L.A. as well. As I previously posted in this blog, this short film has been made by Kandor Moon studios in between two productions: The Missing Lynx and our next motion picture Goleor: The Scales and the Sword. The script, original idea and direction (among many other things) are by Javier Recio. My job in it has been supervising previsualization and cameras, as well as animating a few shots (some of them are shown in the teaser I post here). For more information, you can check the website and the blog, where you'll find the latest news about the shortfilm as well as very rare and interesting production stuff, such as the very first sketches, storyboards, etc... I hope you like it.

Más para Mumfred

Mumfred
Aquí dejo un estudio de color y de personaje para el proyecto de serie Mumfred. Como la serie va a ser 3D he intentado dar volumen al diseño que ya tenía para las tiras cómicas en las que se basa. A este le he puesto pelo, pero la verdad es que no sé si al final irá con pelo o no. Seguramente tendré que hacer otra versión simulando el pelo con volúmenes de geometría.

Here I post a color and character design test for the animation series project "Mumfred". The series is coing to be 3D, so I tried to give some volume to the character I had previously designed for my comics strips that the series is based on. I've drown it with fur, but I don't really know if it'll finally have fur or not. Probably I'll have to draw another version simulating fur with geometry volumes.

Diseño de un disco
Pues como esto lo tengo medio muerto, voy a colgar el último diseño de disco que hice. No es gran cosa, pero es que últimamente estoy paradete. Hacía ya años que no hacía diseños para discos de música (tuve una época, pero lo dejé) y hace poco me pidieron que hiciera este como favor, bastante de improviso. La verdad es que está hecho en una tarde, porque ya se sabe lo que tienen los favores... Se hacen con gusto, pero el tiempo justo :D

This is very quiet, so I've decided to post the last cover design I've made. It's not a great thing, but I wanted to post something. It's been years since I made my last cover design for a music album. I used to work on that, but I left it long ago. Recently I was asked to design this one as a favor, so I did it in one evening. That's the point of favors: you're pleased to do them, but for a short time :P
