Gortella’s Forest Character Designs and Basic Walk Cycle Actions for New Film by F.Sudol!

Gortella’s Forest (originally temporarily titled Curse of the Hag Witch) is in production, with character designs and animations mostly set up for the basic movement actions. First I draw them, then separate the pieces, face, jaws, eyes, legs, torso, arms, weapons, and then assemble and save them as .psd layer files in Gimp or Photoshop software. Then drop those files one by one into Anime Studio Pro 8 /Moho, and then add skeleton bones starting with the torso waist. Connecting them as I go. Finally, animating the Actions such as standing, or walking, jumping, falling, etc. to be used later in the animating of the full film and scenes with characters according to the script blue print.
More news to follow. Thanks for reading. – F. Sudol

New Film in production in 2024, Fluke Parasites Video, Pug Around and more!

New F. Sudol Videos including Pug Around, as Pugfre Pugs Around in a Forest, hoping to earn some treats. Will he receive any reward? Or get nothing at all for his efforts?

Next, work on the new film reveals some of the character designs I’ve created for it, including a varied cast of creatures and monsters that are always fun to draw. First drawn on paper, then photographed and then I add colors and more shading in Krita on my computer.

And following the parasite theme of City of Rott, I created a short “documentary style” Fluke Parasite film, that covers what happens if someone eats an infected Snail filled with Fluke parasites or eggs. A horrible reality of Earth, parasites can be for many creatures and even humans.

Finally, my solo music act/band Aggressive Electronx, is now on Spotify, Itunes, Amazon Music, and more! Please visit those sites for more details. Spotify.com . Thanks! -FSudol

Frank Sudol of BlackArro Productions, begins work on a new feature length animated horror film production!

A script is being fine tuned with a 5th draft, while pre-production has already begun. Pre-production includes the creation of all-new character design illustrations, first drawn by hand (not on a computer) with paper and a ballpoint pen. After photographing the hand-drawn images, I import them into my computer (no more scanning machines necessary), then import them into a photo-editor/drawing program like Krita or Gimp, and begin isolating the images from the background with the selection/lasso tools.

Next, I add shading, followed by colors and contrast to bring the drawings more detail. Afterwards, I import them into Anime Studio Pro 8 (also known currently as Moho Studio) and add skeleton bones to them, testing them for movement and then adding manual Actions, which are sets of animations that I can quickly access during the filming/animation process of the animated movie.

I have nearly all of the characters drawn, just a matter of assembling them. Then I’ll create objects, items and backgrounds for the movie, which will be in the animated horror genre. I am happy to have recently completed Guest of Evil, a 2023 animated psychological vampire horror film released on Tubi, and will now focus my energy into this new film, which I’m excited about as it’s different from my previous projects with some new ideas.

Having a project that inspires you, when you’re working on every single aspect of creating a motion picture/movie/film of a feature length of 70 to 90 minutes, makes a big difference for motivating me to stick with it. If I wasn’t enjoying the concept or process, then I wouldn’t feel inspired to start it or work on it each week or day. It’s a lot of work in my spare time, but I enjoy the challenge of creating it on my own, with total freedom in every aspect of the creation project, and only having myself as my own boss. Plus I keep all of the rights so that also makes it much easier when publishing my films, compared to if I had more than one person to account for.

But ultimately, I love the challenge of creating movies, in every aspect including art, animation, music, sound effects, characters, story, script, dialog, editing, directing, producing and so on, now working on my 9th animated film in pre-production now. More news soon!

My other films so far include:
City of Rott 2006

Dead Fury 2008

Shock Invasion (Anti-Human) 2011

Gnome in the Haunted Castle 3D (2012)

City of Rott 2 (CGI) 2014

Aggressive Electronx New LP 16 Track Electronic Album Available Now on Bandcamp!

Aggressive Electronx New LP 16 Track Electronic Album Available Now on Bandcamp! https://aggressivelectronx.bandcamp.com/album/syndicate-ae006

AE006, Syndicate is the 7th Aggressive Electronx full-length LP album from musician F. Sudol, of the one-man solo electronic Act, released on November 7th, 2023 to match the 7th Album release.

“The goal of this album was to create whatever melody flowed into my mind and allow the musical energy to flow freely to create each track, based on the mood I felt like creating. Usually a faster pace, but this album’s tracks allow for a good range from heavier to tracks that have a more dynamic melodic range too. It was also fun to revisit Hostile with Hostile 2, but this time, creating a different approach without vocals compared to the original track on the Hostile Album. And lastly, I wanted to take more time with the panning, trying to offer more of an experience for the ears with stereo headphones.

Some songs are heavy, while others a bit lighter, but I’m happy with the overall sound of the Syndicate Album and hope those who like Aggressive Electronx will enjoy it too. And of course, thank you to the fans who support and listen to my music and film scores. Thank you!” -F. Sudol, Aggressive Electronx

In the video above, is a clip of the title Track, Syndicate. Visit Bandcamp for the full list of 16 complete tracks, and thank you for listening to the album! Your support is appreciated greatly.
