>Its an amazing accomplishment to not only create such cool characters on paper, but to give them dimension.
One day you might see animated ones. Back when I was at the U I'd do storyboards for different scenes. Mostly to accompany songs. An exercise I do when I write is to pick songs for different characters; main characters I try for at least three, and I try to make them as different from each other musically as possible. Kinda lets you see the character in a different light.
Anyhoo; a couple of the guys were getting into animation, and we were gonna make.... they used to be called Lycras but I think the new term is animatics.... of some of the scenes. With 15 year old home computers it didin't go well. Although last year one of the guys sent me an animation program and suggested I actually finish some of them. So I was planning to try this. Problem is picking ONE song to do.
FUN FACT: I've NEVER been able to find a good song for Ginger. Found a few for Rashasi ("Rocka-Rolla" by Judas Priest and "I Rule the Ruins" by Warlock being the best) but nothing quite fit Ginger.
