Description
I can't believe it, but, here it is. To say this was a labor of love with a huge amount of challenges would be the understatement of my life, but I'm so happy to have had this experience and the opportunity to make this.So many people to thank, but I'm literally running out the door to a family function, so I'll take care of that when I get back. In the meantime, please enjoy the video, and let me know what you thought.
Also WATCH AFTER THE CREDITS. While the scene was my idea, that line was improv from my insanely talented one-man cast. You are the man, James.

Four thumbs up from both of us, Hogan! It is an epic for sure! Something to be proud of, both as an official Star Wars artist and fan! It is a feat that many can only dream of. The force is definitely strong with you! And thank you so very much for the cameo reference, we feel the love!

Unlike Fordo, I have a type, especially for fan films, and this one is clearly my type!!
Tremendous work indeed, you certainly spent a large ammount of hours to put life in it, and it works"amazingly"!
The scenes you added are just fine, the soundtrack is incredible (special medal to the singer of the siren's song and to the rock music during the credits).
The editing is very efficient, as in an Hollywood superprod, by the way!
To be brief, it's just freakingly awesome!!!

I got James because I was in the right place at the right time. He saw my work for "Hughes the Force" (a project he was also involved in) and hired me to do some work for his own live show. I then asked if he would be willing to appear as a special guest, and he graciously accepted!

Awesome!
I hope to see more like this sometime! It's fantastic stuff.
Wish I had a demo to toss you, I'd offer to lend a voice for any future projects. :\
By the way, I followed you on Twitter. Hope that's alright.

JoeHoganArt In reply to otamachamp [2012-07-07 03:31:01 +0000 UTC]
Definitely! I'd love to do more. A big part of it would be finding the right voice actors. I wouldn't want to trouble James again, so getting the right cast would be critical to starting a new one! And thanks for the kind words!
And of course it's cool! Though I'm not very interesting on there! haha

As always, the luck is not with me, and in this moment I've got a very very limited internet conection that makes impossible to me to see videos or download them anyway, I'm sure you did another master piece that I will enjoy soon.

Don't worry. My problem is I've got 1 giga per month, and then the broadband is reduced. And I need it to navigate, download or upload images, check emails and that. Videos are enough big. But in September I will have a look at the video with my sister's PC.

YESSSSS! This is brilliant! And you still had key voices in there after all Your art work was fantastic. The pacing and motions were excellent... and the "camera" shots too. Ash's song Clones brought back memories. wooo! I'll have to watch this again! Right now I'm just so happy about it all!

Love the final result, Joe.
I would've easily pictured this one as an official episode from the GT Clone Wars series.

That was really great!!! Very beautifully done! Your backgrounds looked very nice (esp. the Dathomiri landscape). I like the inclusion of multiple voices for the Siren, and the scene at the end was a nice touch. Good character study on Obi-Wan with the panel where he's "brooding" at the end.
I sure hope you plan on doing more of these!!!

JoeHoganArt In reply to PadawanLinea [2012-07-07 02:54:49 +0000 UTC]
Thanks!! So glad you dug it!!
Unfortunately, this project took 4 months to do simultaneously with paid work, and 2 of those months were JUST this. So the pay cut hit me really hard, and I can't entertain the idea of doing another anytime soon (not to mention, I don't want to trouble the super talented voice actor again! haha). But given the time and money, I would LOVE to sit down and just bang out more of these. They just don't pay the rent. In any event, I'm so happy I got the chance to do this one! Glad you liked it!

Ah, I hadn't considered that. True enough. Well, now you have a really awesome portfolio piece!
Oh, and that last bit at the end? HILARIOUS.

Thanks so much!
And that last line was James' idea! I mentioned that I was having trouble coming up with a one liner to close it with, and sent him that scene to see if anything came to him. After doing the few boring lines that I had suggested ("And STAY down." "Always double tap," etc), he came up with a few gold ones, but that was easily my favorite. His casual "Give it a rest," was a close second, though! hahaha I'm considering doing a gag reel with Fordo doing all of the different takes James did!

It turned out spectacular! Amazing job on all of it. The voices sounded just like Obi Wan and Yoda.
