After many requests I have decided to use YouTube to upload the Knights of the Dinner Table movies. Although I had a long standing interest in animation, this was the first animation I had ever made, using Flash 3.
After the surprise success of the first cartoon, I was surprised to find myself making another, as well as finding friend to voice the other characters for me. I’ve had people write me to say they can’t read the cartoons anymore without hearing our voices for them now.
The shortest of the cartoons, this one required me to draw a new prop and a flame effect. The sound of the fire and shutoff button was just me making strange noises and then effecting and distorting the hell out of it in what was known as CoolEdit (now Adobe Audition).
With this episode I got more adventurous with the end-credit gag. I wrote it myself instead of adapting it from a comic. Erik Bouchard was kind enough to translate and voice it for me. It resulted in a gag many people cite as one of the funniest in the series.
In this one, I re-designed the credits, choosing different fonts and making a crest for the crew that incorporated the dice. The visuals accompanying B.A. description of the action we inspired by Everquest 1. The end gag is a parody of The Blair Witch Project.
