Don't push that button. I know you want to, but you'll regret what happens...


I used the Xtranormal Desktop software to create this. As you can tell, watermarks everywhere! I can't do anything about that. The benefit of that software is that I can use characters from other packs, which enabled me to do 'surprising' things. I do like some features of the new software (more characters, titles), but there are drawbacks (one location, damn watermarks!).

Yet another pit of lava has opened up. What's with them these days? But as Brassica goes to investigate, he ends up with a very large problem on his hands...


The criteria this time was a 24 minute limit to story creation. Since it can take that long just to get a scene to work, I placed the limit of 24 minutes on script writing. And that's what got converted, with no extra word tweaks or extra body language that wasn't already in there, nothing else. Shows what does get added...

When trouble goes down, there is one man that knows it. One man that opposes it. One man that can sort the world out. And, best, of all, he's French...


(My turn to lay down the challenge gauntlet. And with all the bashing they get, I've decided to go Franco and give the requirement: a French Hero. With bonus challenge: a breakfast scene.)

It's all very well seeing the superheroes get out there, fight the bad guys, and win the day, but what about the other people? Support staff have issues too.

Although the set-up was for minor character, I don't have a lot of characters in the first place. And Trish has been in videos before. But she doesn't have any super-related role, and is seen in the opening/closing, so...

What's a man to do when only the G.O.D.S have F.I.R.E.?



Okay, the myth source is not exactly a subtle one, but it's the one that came to mind when thinking about this...

Two agencies are again emperilling the world in their eternal battle for world superiority! And, in this special episode, a very special guest star!



And again, the eternal battle with non-English accents to make the words semi-intelligible.

It had to happen: there be a movie! Although possibly too many scriptwriters...



I admit that this probably only amuses me... but it really amuses me!

Silver Skull comes up with a cunning plan that takes advantage of the popular love of the Olympics...



A note on the voices. There are basically three adult male voices (one American, two English) and five adult female voices (two American, three English) available before I need to start dealing with making things sound sensible in other accents (which isn't to say that I don't have enough problems with English). So voices are assigned on what I need, not who should sound like they did last time...

Catching up with my Xero issues. (Don't know if I ever mentioned it, but these are based on the High Concept Challenges over on rec.arts.comics.creative )

#7: There's trouble in the city. One man is on a mission... a mission that involves silver skulls!


#8: What makes a man a broccoli... I mean, a superhero? Can he, should he, take time out? Oh, the agony of being him...

I'm certainly not attempting long stories here. On the other hand, they get to the
point and don't linger around afterwards. ...not that I'm just dashing these things off. It took me three hours to put this together, and that was after spending a few hours on it the night before, before the program crashed and I lost everything...


There's a Sasquatch in the city, and the Unicorns aren't happy about it. Who will
acheive their aim first?

Zombies. Yay... never really got excited (in any way) by zombies. So here's an amusing, but admittedly not brilliant, zombie based issue. (And this is the software for droning voices!)

Meet our Zombie Overlords!

This is clearly not a full video. State, the software that I use to do the full videos, wasn't working, so I used the Text-To-Movie facility on the website. Thus this became a two-hander in one scene.

Thrill as Lattay helps out her sister and delivers the coffee order for her. To an underground lair... what could go wrong?

Even big companies use the same software I do. It also sounds like they used the same voice for Broccoliser (the actual name of the character) that i did. I have yet to reveal Zzz Girl in my series...

Although they put more than 15 minutes into it, and edited it outside of the actual software...

Another exciting new video from Team Xero! Again as part of the High Concept Challenge, as they all will be for now. This High Concept: A... lesser animal based super hero. The big problem is that I'm limited by what characters I have in the Superxeros pack... fortunately for me, there is one in particular they have...

As part of the RACC High Concept Challenge, I created this superhero based movie using xtranormal.

Still takes a lot of time, just as writing would.
