We recently entered the licensing world with GGBG Good Girl Bad Girl and decided to create an animated music video for promotion. This could never happen without the help of friends. Our end credits list the folks we have to thank, but here’s a little more info:
The project started with an original song from Joel J Dahl of the band De Novo Dahl [currently By Lightning]. We sent him our GGBG book and before we knew it, Joel had a song that we loved and became a huge inspiration for me.
I drew the boards, with advice from my brother, animation director Steve Loter. Pascal Campion did us the huge favor of assembling our animatic. We had been discussing this project with our friends at Ghostbot and even though the production time was very tight, they agreed to animate it for us. I drew all character key poses [thanks Dancin' Bob McKnight!]. Kevin Martonick was a blessing, creating the Flash assets from my drawings
We provided these, along with the background art to Ghostbot. They then worked their magic, bringing it all to life. Special thanks to Roque and team for not only their great work, but actually meeting our impossible deadline! Thanks also from Shelley and I to our frequent Loter, Inc. collaborators Teresa and Brian!
We are very grateful to all listed here and in the credits. This was the first time my characters have been animated and we couldn’t be more pleased. Thanks again to everyone who went out of their way to help and support us. I hope you like it!
To celebrate the Comic-Con debut of our Good Girl Bad Girl animated music video, we will finally be making our Bad Girl figure available. She has been on display in our booth for a few years and has always gotten a lot of interest. Now, she can be yours!
The first two figures from an edition of 8 will be offered at this show. We will make the others available at future shows.
The figure is resin with handcrafted parts. She is hand painted, numbered and signed by John, along with a Certificate of Authenticity card featuring an original color sketch.
Also, we will be offering the brand-new GGBG 2012 wall calendar, so you can plan which days to be good or bad! We will have it in advance of its release to stores, so you can get it from us first!
Additionally, each day of the Con, we will have a different exclusive art print featuring GGBG animation sketches. Collect all four, quantities limited.
Come visit us at booth 3913 for other new additions to our assortment of shirts, prints and books! Thanks for your support! We’ll see you there!
Loter Inc. is returning to San Diego Comic-Con International! Swing by and visit us at booth #3913, July 20-24 — come see our film debut, an animated music video for “Good Girl Bad Girl.”
