strike-boogie

A small taste of an article written on geekwads.com for the full interview/article see the link below.
Strike Boogie a professional art director in the comic & video game industry. Situated in Toronto, his recent credentials include official artwork for Metal Gear Art Studio in 2013, lead by Konami UK division and alongside Yoji Shinkawa. Strike was also assigned as the cover artist of the official Danity Kane comic series, published by Eigomanga and created by superstar singer Dawn Richard of the previous famous groups Danity Kane & Diddy-Dirty Money under Bad Boy Records.

Was there a “spark” moment for you when it came to deciding to creating art?

“Yes, there definitely was! Putting pencil to paper came from the driving force that my cousin Kelvin aspired for to become a comic book artist. His inspiration was Jim Lee, and I therefore had been exposed to the western world of comics at a young age around 9-10 years old. I came to discover Japanese animation when I stumbled upon Sailor Moon and it changed the approach of expressive artistic style just before I hit high school. It was when I entered my senior year that I established visual arts as the main forefront of my artistic abilities.”

DAYUM!!– He-Man – Behind the Scenes – He-Man animation test

heman

Today among days I came across a wonderful gem, oh great sage of youtube thank you. This channel created by a fellow named James is about the animated series He-man. This is by all means a wonderful tribute and research material for a budding animator that wanted to know the running of some studios such as Filmation back in the 80’s and to know that some shows were fully animated in the states in trying to keep all production in house, of-course we all know that can be costly but it was a worthy attempt. If you are eager like myself to find out more simply watch these wonderful break down vlogs by James and share his findings. Enjoy.
