C'mon, you didn't even spell that right

Yes, Gojira is Ben. Therefore Ben is Gojira! ...I think. Now I've gotten all confused.

Sorry. I typed it fast...

Wait what?? now im confused as well

[Teirusu]

The What aspect isn't the hard part; it's the how. I'm still having trouble understanding how arraylists work!

Isn't really hard. The hardest thing of Java is the heritage, extends, comparable, implements and those abstratc stuff that you really need to know in order to know what are you doing. Understand some "basic" stuff such primitives, Strings, Arrays, ArrayList, TreeSet, HashSet, TreeMap or TreeSet is just start making examples from 0, reading carefully all their methods and how to use them. ArrayList For example the only thing that It cost me understand is the stupid Iterator (now is easy, but when I learned AL was a bit mess).

Sorry, I'm also a programmer, most on Java and I wanted to say something too

[Lito290]

You know what I meant, Mr. Disco-pony person.

and thanks Teirusu, now I feel like I'm in a sea of programmers

I was actually going to mention that I actually have a commercially published Nintendo DS title under my belt (namely "Hands On! Tangrams") earlier, but at that point we were told to get back on topic.

Oh. Right.

[Captain Sorzo]

If it makes you feel any better, Lito, I'm pretty terrible at Java myself, and don't know a thing about other programming languages. Might have to learn a little bit of Mel Script or Unreal Script at some point.

so i heard you guys are working with FlamingoRich?

[Uncle Ben]

....no idea what that is

[chief]

No, not working. Just has a meeting to talk over a few things. Get advice in certain stuff. That's all

An idea has come to my head: what about the background music? I assume it will have be to be remade, but will you remake tracks from the original series?

We'll most likely figure that one out soon. But anyways...

What would you guys like to see in the animation? I always wanted to ask this one. Just know, we may or may not take these opinions under consideration, so don't be sad if we don't.

[Uncle Ben]

i wanna see a classic look (like it was made in '94 when Season 3 would have aired) but with a modern touch (More/brighter/darker colors etc.)

[Hammer]

I'd prefer it retaining the classic look, having duller colors than modern animation, just like the classic series.
I don't know if that's what you're referring to though.

[Matt]

What I meant was everything Sea3on (Animated). Not just the animation itself.

[Uncle Ben]

Every once in awhile you should show like a few pages of the comic that relate to the episode and show how it became comic into animation (like a deveopler diary and/or a before and after thing)

In general this is what we are going for. The idea is to pay homage to the original through both the color pallet and style. We plan on adding some more modern animation techniques to boost the feel of quality. For example we are toying with making light filter through the trees and reflecting things off the water.

In addition you can expect to find symbolism in the not on the way things are colored, but the positioning of both characters and objects in the animation. For those with keen eyes there will be more than one story told.

All of this is in the works, and at this point a hypothetical stage, but as concept art is drawn an proof on concepts are completed, it becomes closer to a reality.

Does this sound alright to you guys?

If this is done successfully on top of the existing narrative...wow. Glitcher's art in "Me and My Shadow" made very strong use of visual symbolism, but it's otherwise something I haven't really noticed in Sea3on. The art conveys character and emotion extremely well, things that are more important in this case, but having that extra layer of depth on top of everything else would make this already phenomenal story even better.

Who's in charge for setting up this symbolism?

Sounds grand

No one in particular. We are always listening if you have ideas. Chief and I have gone over what we think should be done with regards to a little bit of this.

Symbolism as in something like "hope amongst the darkness"

Yup. Think good vs evil or light vs dark. There is a lot that can be done here, we are doing our best to explore all the possible ways to tell a story.
