Well, here it is! Part 5 of my 3D animated vampire movie, “It Came From Beneath the Streets of San Francisco”. For this, I’m using the latest version of iClone which is a knock-out!
In this episode, you’ll meet Divina and Lucinda, twin sisters from the Philippines. Exotic dancers and also our resident vampires from beneath the streets of San Francisco.
Thanks again to everyone who viewed the first 4 episodes on this blog, on YouTube, in CloneClips, etc. Your donations via Paypal are certainly helping me a lot. I hope you continue to support me, so I can finish this project (and other 3D movies in the future) for all of you to enjoy. Please click on the Paypal Link to donate and thanks again!
If you haven't heard of PayPal, it is the safest and most highly regarded method of payment online (affiliated with Ebay). I apologize in advance if this is not convenient for you. And now, sit back, relax and enjoy part 5 of “It Came From Beneath The Streets of San Francisco.”

Episode 4: It Came From Beneath The Streets of San Francisco
I’m back! My combination book tour/vacation was a blast but I’m glad to be back and doing what I love at the end of the day.
Well, here’s part 4 of my 3D animated movie with a 50s sci-fi style title, “It Came From Beneath the Streets of San Francisco”. In part 3, you met our protagonist Kathleen Sullivan, reporter for a tabloid paper called ‘Curiosity’. Of course, Kathleen hates her job! She’d rather write for a prestigious paper and win a Pulitzer but hey, right now, it pays for her knockoff Manolo Blahniks. So, in part 4she’s “forced” by her boss to sensationalize the horrific murder of a pregnant woman whose unborn baby was ripped from her stomach and is still missing.
You’ll notice that there is no captioning in this episode. No robotic sounding characters either because I did not use my text-to-speech software! Because of your continued support for my project, I was able to buy a voice modifying software that allows me to create multiple voices from a single voice talent: moi. Now, I’m no Meryl Streep so the dialogue delivery is still, uh, terrible, but there is now a bit of inflection and I promise to keep practicing…maybe even take voice classes so I can deliver these lines better. For now, I ask for your patience and understanding and hope you enjoy this latest labor of love.
Thanks again to everyone who viewed the first 3 episodes on this blog, on YouTube, in CloneClips, etc. Many of you have been very generous financially. Your donations via Paypal are certainly helping me a lot. I hope you continue to support me, so I can finish this project (and other 3D movies in the future) for all of you to enjoy.

Episode 3: It Came From Beneath The Streets of San Francisco
Whew! Finished this in record time! Part 3 of my 3D animated movie with a 50s sci-fi style title, “It Came From Beneath the Streets of San Francisco”. In part 2, you were given your first glimpse of the Manananggal, a monstrous breed of vampires with huge bat-like wings, capable of severing their upper torsos from their lower bodies to fly into the night to prey on unsuspecting, pregnant women.
Now in part 3, meet our protagonist Kathleen Sullivan, reporter for a sleazy tabloid paper called ‘Curiosity’. The tabloid paper’s tagline? “Curiosity kills a cat but it sure sells a lot of tabloids!” Of course, Kathleen hates her job! She’d rather write for a prestigious paper and win a Pulitzer but hey, right now, it pays for her knockoff Manolo Blahniks.
Enjoy this episode. You won’t be seeing part 4 until after a month or so. I will be traveling to promote my book, The Givenchy Code. It is a parody of Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code. Someday, I’d like to make it into a 3D animated movie as well unless a wise producer beats me to it by buying the book rights and making it into a -ahem- hit film!

Episode 2: It Came From Beneath The Streets of San Francisco
Here it is, part 2 of my 3D animated movie with a 50s sci-fi style title, “It Came From Beneath the Streets of San Francisco”. “IT” is revealed for the first time in this episode: the monstrous look of this new breed of vampires, who live in the secret underground tunnels of the city and fly out at night to terrorize the denizens of San Francisco.
Like I mentioned in my first blog, this is a rather ambitious project-- attempting to create a full-length 3D animated movie using iClone Studio 2.5; Crazy Talk, with its type-to-speech feature for creating dialogue; and some other movie editing software-- but most good things in this life make you sweat a bit, right? Though it’s a lot of hard work, it’s fun stuff! And it is a very freeing feeling knowing that I can actually transform my books and screenplays into 3D animated realities, in iClonorama Vision, no less!
I'm very encouraged and humbled by the tremendous response to the 1st episode of "It Came…"! I’ve received some accolades, some constructive criticism, and a lot of encouragement to continue producing this movie by those who “can’t wait to see more!”
Thanks to everyone who viewed the first episode on this blog, on YouTube, in CloneClips, etc. Many of you have been very generous financially. Your donations via Paypal are certainly helping me a lot. With your donations, I bought some 3D backgrounds and props, which I needed to produce forthcoming episodes that take place in underground tunnels and secret rooms. I hope you continue to support me, so I can finish this project (and other 3D movies in the future) for all of you to enjoy.

P.S. Congratulations to REALLUSION on the release of their iClone3! Hope to get this fantastic version of iClone someday!

My First iClone 3d Animation Project
It's quite ambitious, really, for a first project! I'm attempting to produce a full-length 3D animated movie using iClone Studio, Crazy Talk and some movie editing software, that I recently acquired as birthday gifts. I've always wanted to produce some of the screenplays and novels I've written in the past. I guess I got a bit sick and tired of sending out query letters to producers and agents and getting nada in response so why not, huh?
I'm new at this and words like 'avatar', 'timeline', 'particle effects' still sound foreign to me and at times, I get a cold sweat at the very ballsy idea of creating an animated movie with me as the lone writer, producer, director, actor, set designer, etc.
But here it is, the 1st part or episode of my first animated movie! It is titled, "It Came From Beneath the Streets of San Francisco", and it's about a new breed of vampires who live in the secret underground tunnels of the city and at night, fly out and terrorize the denizens of San Francisco. I won't give away their monstrous look yet but here's a hint: these vampires originally came from the Philippines and they look nothing like any Western vampire that most modern people are familiar with.
Enjoy episode/part 1 and if you should be so inclined, I'd like to ask you to kindly donate any amount you can spare: a dollar, two dollars ...anything... so I can continue doing this. The fact is that animation is the single most expensive and time-consuming way of making a film but with your help, I'm hoping I can finish this project (and other 3D movies in the future) for all of you to enjoy.
