Average Joe Movie: The first 2 minutes

The second sneak peek for 'Average Joe: Bigger, Stupider, and Unintelligent'.

http://www.freewebs.com/jtn1989/ajmovie.htm

This is the first two minutes of completed animation. We have about 8 minutes (out of an estimated 25) of footage completed at this time.

A few things you may notice:

1. The animation is different then in the series (http://www.freewebs.com/jtn1989/averagejoeseries.htm), we're trying to go for a "fuller" look.

2. Martha's voice has changed to be a bit deeper and a bit "southern" because her original voice (see the series) was really hard on my voice to do.

Tell me what you think!

That'll get you familiar with the characters and the movie will make more umm... sense.

Self-referencing!!!

Classic!!!

Now all you need to do have the characters refer to themselves in the third person.

And this whole time I thought your last name was Netherly. I need to get my eyes checked.

Also this is my favorite Average Joe clip you've done so far.

lol yeah, I love that kind of humor... and it rubs off in my cartoons

lol yes, Netherly is a common mispronouncing of my name. There's also Netherby, Netharly, Nethry, and tons of others

And thanks!

I will post more clips from the movie soon!

Slightly too random for my taste, but still quite good. I liked Martha's old voice better than this one, though that might be me. Though I know something about painful voices, my friend Hans had to do a painful voice for those yopyop cartoons I created.

Anyhow, I like it, though I think the main issue I have with most of your animation is that it's mainly characters with a one-color background, or that the background is slightly too empty, which is actually a problem I have from while to while as well, but well, that's something else.

Thanks, glad you like it.
