Official Release Dates n Stuff

Well, first off I had no idea this Cory: An Hero project was going to be so time consuming. Sorry for all the um, DELAYING, but that Flash series is more important to me right now.

Okay, I am announcing when Six Flags and Visit the Sewers are releasing.

Both will be released between March-May 2009.

The Six Flags episode is by far the hardest Fred and Luigi cartoon to make. There is so much detail that has to go in it.

But they will BOTH be here next Spring.

I'll keep you updated whenever news comes in blah blah blah

I've Been Thinking...

about putting together a Fred and Luigi DVD somehow. It is a fantasy that is oh so distant, but one day I plan to release one. Yeah, whatever.

In other news:

Fred and Luigi Go To Six Flags in slow production still. After I finish another Flash project in December I will focus on this episode as well as "Fred and Luigi Visit The Sewers" which its script is written as well.

Fred and Luigi: The Movie being thought over. I might try to animate it in Flash and see how it turns out. If not, I may just make it in PowerPoint or just... FREAKING cancel it :P

Screenshots? No. Wait.

What's That Lassie? More Changes in Plans?

Soo...

I'm getting wrapped up in Flash right now, so............................

Fred and Luigi?

Not right now.

Don't you worry young one, the screenshots will be delivered when they get here.

Slight Delay

I will be busy throughout next week, so these "screenshots" posted here will be delayed a week.
(I wanted to release some sometime next week)

December! December! December!

Since my project in Flash is almost complete, more of Fred and Luigi Season 4 will be released!

Fred and Luigi Go To Six Flags will release in December, at the latest.
Fred and Luigi Visit The Sewers will be here around next February.

Production updates and screenshots to come forth soon!

FaL Six Flags Postponed?

I have been very busy lately.
Them Dirty Mexicans, a flash cartoon, is taking up all my time with animating right now.
So, this episode will probably be postponed a month or two.

Suck it.

Remember That "Special Event"?

Back in March, I did a little post to a Fred and Luigi Special Event to be done by Halloween 2008.

Scroll down a little bit to find it.

It's not going to happen this year.

Too busy.

Wait until next year.

'Fred and Luigi Are Bored' Completed

Yesterday I finished the prequel to 'Fred and Luigi Six Flags'. It's pretty cool.
I'm too lazy to post screenshots at the moment...

But anyway,
Fred and Luigi Go To Six Flags is underway!

New Episodes in the Works

Currently in the world of Fred and Luigi...
Fred has a lot of plans for summer vacation, but before anything happens, Luigi goes away for the summer. Can Fred find anything to do? Not really...

Yep, I am making a prologue episode that will lead to the events of "Fred and Luigi Go To Six Flags". What this basically means is that I'm making like a prequel to the next episode, something I have never done before.

I will have it done in a few weeks. After that, it is on to the Six Flags episode!

















Here is a screenshot of the cartoon. It is Fred lying in bed. Ha, nice poster there.

New Episode This September

Fred and Luigi Go To Six Flags is written.

I think its pretty funny. It really pokes fun at theme park food, ride regulations, and that "severed feet" incident that happened last summer at a real Six Flags.

I'll tell you when I start animating. Look for it this September.

Episodes NOW Posted Online!

I got the episodes posted online.

They work manually. You have to get the hang of doing to animation yourself.

First things first, people. Here are the first two things you must see before watching Fred and Luigi videos.

So I was working on my newest episode Luigi Chokes and I came across something....

All right. Either you know what Fred and Luigi is and have seen it OR you don't know what the heck I'm talking about.

If you already know, go ahead and see what's new in the cartoon world of Fred Fredderson and Luigi Luigston.

If you don't, lemme explain. Have a seat. You must read this.


So, in Health class 6th grade (I know, lolololololol) in 2004 our teacher showed us how to make the "autoshapes" in Microsoft PowerPoint into beings and objects and people and whatnot. And you had to make a little cartoon involving autoshape people in safety situations. She gave people topics. I got the topic "poison safety". So, soon enough, I created a couple of characters and thus creating episode 1, "Fred Chugs Lysol". The cartoon was about a hyper-type of kid named "Fred" and how he asked his best friend, Luigi, if he wanted to watch him "chug" Lysol spray. Luigi, however, is a rather wise dude and he encouraged Fred NOT to drink it. Fred drinks it and he dies, and Luigi tells the viewer not to poison theirselves.
Cheesy? Maybe.
So... after a while I wanted to make more episodes about Fred acting like a retard and Luigi trying to stop him. As the episodes progressed, more characters were introduced, personalities were getting stronger, and the episodes lengthened. Soon enough, it was like watching a movie rather than a slideshow. And Fred was not dying in every episode. There was actually more stuff going on.
By summer 2006 my F & L episodes were becoming a "neighborhood favorite" and now in 2008 I want to share them with YOU! YAY!
Yeah, it is pretty weird that I STILL use PowerPoint for these animations. Believe me, I tried doing them in Macromedia Flash, but it is not the same. Like, it seems more hilarious with choppy-esque animation.

Here, email me at austin.tyd@hotmail.com and I will send the the Tutorial Fred and Luigi episode. It guides you through the basic setting of the first two seasons of Fred and Luigi.

There you have it, now if you want to see any F & L episodes, you'll have to email me, okay?!
Enjoy.


And a note: all the episodes run in order in the form of like a running gag so to "get" all the jokes you might have to watch all of them...
