Scardy Cat on YouTube


I made some funny comic books about Scardy Cat, one of my characters, and I recently made a flash animation of one of the comics I made, Scardy Cat "Catches the Beat" it is now on YouTube if you type in "w.m.thing" in the search box you will find it because it is fairly recent and so it will appear at the top. By the way, this is a still from "Scardy Cat Catches the Beat."

5 Fates Await You




Here is what is keeping me from blogging daily.
Here is the secret project that has not been mentioned yet in Recycled Filmakers.
Here is the amazing movie that has finally been realized.
Here, is 5 Fates Await You, the new movie from W.M.Thing.
5 Fates Await You is about a girl who wants to live forever. A skeleton ghost appears and grants that wish. But in order for her to live forever, the girl has to suffer five fates, that last being the worst. Here they are:
Fate#1: Red eyes will follow you wherever you venture.
Fate#2: Invisible Ghosts will torment you.
Fate#3: Pure darkness will surround you.
Fate#4: You will hear screams in the night.
and
Fate#5: You will be tortured in a fire that burns you.
I also will say that the DSA trailer is on YouTube, just type in w.m.thing and you will get all of my movies, most recent on top.
Above are the characters in order of appearance. The girl, the skeleton ghost, & the invisible ghost.
5 Fates Await You is not done yet, but will be soon.

Trailer for DSA

I'm sorry. I must not be a very good blogger for not keeping my word about posting everyday. I forgot, and other things.
I watched Valley of Gwangi, and drew a little. But what this post is about is the new trailer for DSA: Dragon Slayers' Academy, an adoption of the the book by Kate Mc Mullan. It will be on YouTube shortly, maybe tomorrow, if I can get my father to put it on for me. He is watching the Matrix. Anyway, I'll tell you when it's on YouTube when it is.

Adventure of the Tombs

Adventure of the Tombs was originally "Gates of Troy" but I wanted it to be in Egypt, so I had to make up "Adventure of the Tombs" instead. There are no tombs in Adventure of the Tombs. There is a lot of dust, though. There is a dragon, who likes fire. (Which is really just another excuse to throw dust all around.) And many other things. The movie ends when the two playmobile charicters decide to live the rest of their lives in flowerpots.

The Architect

The Architect was going to be about an architect who drew out a plan of the house she was going to build, and then it would spring to life, and there would be the house. It didn't have enough plot, so I didn't make it.

Animated House!!

Animated House is finished!!!
With a really terrible ending.
Well, thats great news.
The bad news is,
it is 4 minutes long.
I mean, I knew I make short movies... BUT THAT SHORT???
Maybe I should be a lawyer when I grow up, and call this blog, "Recycled Lawyers"
That sounds bright and cheery.

Making Documentaries

Sorry for not posting yesterday. I was in Hartford, Connecticut. This post is about why I don't make documentaries.
The Answer is: I do. All my making ofs are documentaries. But here's the real thing. I don't like making documentaries, making-of or not. I like to make fantasy and adventure movies. Documentaries are not about dragons, girls that get lost in mazes, earthquakes, phantoms, headless ghosts, and aliens from mars.
I can't make a documentary and I usually can't sit through a documentary.
That is why I haven't made one yet.
