A Real Cool Pad

Harvey's living room is decorated in moss green and sea foam blue. There's a bar and a view of the city skyline. A lot of interesting things could happen here, and I predict some raunchy man-on-man action before the evening is over.

New Movie Stars

Here's a little information about the upcoming Animan movie.

Harvey is a wealthy businessman living in Manhattan with his family, his wife and son, Harvey Jr.  One night, Harvey's friends come over for a card game, and Junior is home from college, so he wants to play too. But the kid is spoiled, and always manipulates things to get his own way. 

Here's a Great Little Video

For Animan's non-English speaking friends, here's the text for the conversation.

A. Hey Bud, you gotta check out this new gay film--it's great.

B. Awesome! I'll buy it on iTunes.

A. Actually, here's the link where you can watch it for free.

B. Whoa, whoa! You mean as in, "steal it"?

A.  I mean, why pay when you can get it for nothing?

B.  Probably because the few bucks it DOES make goes to the filmmaker, who can then create more films. I mean, you always spend 4 dollars on coffee, but not on movies?

A. I mean, filmmakers are all rich already! I'd way rather give my money to some multi-billion-dollar corporation than some independent filmmaker.

B. OK. Interesting logic. You do know the reason more gay films don't get made is because they are a labor of love, and the only money the filmmaker makes is the few bucks it makes on the internet? Take that away, and no more gay films.

A.  What about porn?

B. Same deal.

A. Wait....what??! That CAN'T happen! OK. Now, I'm really upset.

B. Sorry Bud, it's the truth.

A. Well, I mean, without porn, what would we do?

B. I guess we'd have to make our own.

A. Oh, that's a great idea!

B. Yeah, we should do it!

C. Fellas, fellas! Now, I couldn't help but overhear your conversation, and I just wanna let you know, my iPhone has HD. And I did go to film school.

A. Well, would you film us? I mean, we could shoot a scene right here!

B. Dude! This is such a good idea! We should totally do this!

A. Yeah, and then if it comes out hot, we could put it on the internet, and people can download it, and we can make money, and then we can like start a little business! We can like get some cash off of it.

C. So that's the thing, though. See, some asshole is gonna steal your film, make it available for free, and then everyone's gonna have it.

A. Well, what about YouTube?

C. Do you really wanna sit through all of those ads just to make a few bucks?

B. Maybe we shouldn't do it, then.

A. If you can't make money, what's the point, you know?

C. It's a shame.  I was looking on filming some "steam-tastic" steam room sexy action. 

A.  Well, maybe I should just start paying for my entertainment from now on.

B. Yeah, I mean, if everyone throws in a couple of bucks, whenever they rent a movie or porn, imagine how good the films and how good--how hot the models will be!

A. You're right. I'm just gonna pay, I mean if it's gonna make hotter models, and better movies, then it's totally worth it, you know? (I'm getting horny again!)

C. The camera's right here, fellas!

B. Are you ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille?

A. Close-up of what?!

B. Let's do this!

A.  All right!

C.  All right, lights, camera and action!

First Look at the Next Film

Question: Where will the next Animan adventure happen? Answer: In the big city, in a penthouse apartment. I'll be posting more pictures in the near future!

Picture Perfect

How Animan's favorite Disney film was made.

An American Actor

If you've ever seen the classic Hollywood movies, "Ben Hur", "The Ten Commandments" or "Planet of the Apes", then you're familiar with Charlton Heston's work. And what a piece of work! 

Making Shadows on Harmony Animation Software

Many friends of Animan have been asking about the process used to add shadows to the characters in The Country Club. Here's a tutorial from the software manufacturer showing the process.

The Country Club Video Release

After many, many heart-stopping 11th hour computer crashes, "The Country Club" is finally available for $7 US. You'll find it in The Animan Shop

You can contact me through the Animan Shop. I will be checking my e-mail dozens of times each hour, in case you wish to pay through Paypal, or are having trouble getting your download. You might not receive an answer right away, depending on what time you contact me. I live in Asia, and I might be sleeping. In that case, I'll get to your e-mail early the next morning.

Something Worth Sharing

This morning, I received this e-mail:
≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈
Hi Animan

I just wanted to write this quick note to say, thank you very much for making these movies. I am a huge fan of your work and I will continue to support you by buying every new one that you make. These videos have actually helped me more than I could explain. I can't wait to see The Country Club, I hope it's available soon, Hell I would even pay extra to get it right now.

Anyway keep up the great work and if there is anything I can do as a fan to make your job easier and produce more please let me know.
Thanks.
≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈
Here's my answer:
Hi
Thank you for buying the Animan movies. Your support provides me with the time and resources to keep trying new things and push the boundaries even further.

If Country Club were already finished, I'd be happy to send it to you right now. But I'm still working on the last stages: fixing drawing mistakes that crept in, re-doing a few scenes that just aren't hot enough, composing and recording music, and adding voices. If I do these things well, it will be a satisfying experience for everyone.

You mentioned that my movies had helped you. I'd like to hear more about that, if you do not mind.

Thanks again for being such a wonderful fan. I greatly appreciate it.

Animan
≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈
I received this:
The short version of the story is that I was going thru a rough period in my life and whenever I would be feeling down, I would watch most if not all of your videos in one sitting and they would def bring me back to feeling better, my favorite 3 so far are Junior College, Lex Stern MD and GI Bananas. I like the other ones too it's just I watch those the most.
It's also great to see how far more advanced and detailed they have become. The trailer for the Country Club is amazing. Again your attention to detail is noticed (well at least by me).
≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈
Animan's Conclusion
I am overjoyed to learn that my movies helped to uplift someone who was feeling down. Troubles can come in all types and sizes, and they are a part of life. Being gay in a so-called "straight world" has always been a very stressful endeavor. At times, some of us almost begin to believe what "they" tell us--that we're unworthy, that we're bad, etc. As long as I (Animan) am around to make movies, I intend to portray us as good, happy, good-feeling and optimistic beings who are very worthy to be here.

NEW TRAILER!

The trailer for "The Country Club" is ready for downloading. You'll find it at the The Animan Shop. "The Country Club" video is set for release at the end of March.

Animan's Favorite Commercial!

I just can't believe this!! Sweet charity!

It's a clever idea: every time you donate a piece of clothing to the clothing drive (for charity), you receive a free Bud Light! I sure hope this type of charity catches on, all over the world!

Work in Progress "The Country Club"

Animan's newest film "The Country Club" will be finished by the end of March. These are a few of the main characters. First, there's the doctor. He's well-known by everyone at The Country Club, and is very popular with the ladies.

Here's the leader of the doctor's female fans, Betty.

And let's not forget the women in Betty's social group. Peaches is the one with the slim figure. Vivian is pleasingly plump, and Doris is a brooding brunette.

Julio is the Mexican gardener.

Meet Mike and Spencer.

Plus a cast of several more male characters!

Paperback Book Art

In the '50's and '60's, paperback books were very popular. Their popularity was helped by the sometimes lurid cover art. As time went on, there was more and more nudity, and the art became more and more sexy. And some of the art was really strange!

There's a wonderful site where you can see thousands of paperback book covers from that golden age--it's where these examples came from:
Flickr Vintage Paperback Pool

HERE ARE SOME OF ANIMAN'S FAVORITE BOOK COVERS! 

A naked man throws a spear. Real macho.

Looks like a whorehouse. The woman is jeering: "Nyah nyah! This customer wants ME, not you! Better luck next time!"

It's got a catchy Dutch title: "Happiness Children of Cloverleaf Castle". The blood-red lips are so cool and the castle towers are so very phallic.

"He sowed his seed in the Garden of Eros".  Animan loves it!

This is so classy--it looks like a scene out of an opera.

She's dressed but he's nude--I like it that way. 

More naked men with spears. 

Animan saved the best for last.

What the....?  (See reader's comment below)

Queer Duck

Here's a different sort of gay cartoon. Several episodes of Queer Duck could be seen on Icebox.com some years ago.  Now, there are only 2 episodes left, and if you're living in the "wrong" country like I am, then you cannot watch them! Oh joy. Country-discrimination!

The first episode can be seen on YouTube. Queer Duck sees his friends Oscar Wilde-cat and Bi-polar bear and his lover Billy Gay-tor, and announces that he's going to come out to his parents.

Then there was the Queer Duck Movie on DVD. Needless to say, I bought it! Although the humor is light-years away from Animan's World, it's still very entertaining.

One section of the movie is a song about Gay Baseball, which is also shown on YouTube. Enjoy!

Two Great Blogs!

☆The other day, a good friend steered me to this blog. 
I was amazed and thoroughly delighted! Here were photographs of men, and they all had Animan-sized posteriors! I knew that Photoshop could work miracles, but this is just astounding! Most of the pictures are very natural-looking and quite sexy! There's nothing wrong with giving "Father Nature" a helping hand...

Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈Ω≈

★My good friend BBQdude is doing some voice recording for my next video "The Country Club", and he has his own blog, too! You can visit him here.

He has an unsatiable passion (don't we all!) for the "Callipygian Man" (guys with great-shaped asses). His blog looks like a shrine to the male backside. Check it out!

Animan's Favorite Italian

Some time ago, Animan's World featured this photo of Rossano Brazzi, taken in the 1950's when he was filming "South Pacific" in Hawaii. 

Needless to say, the swimsuit is fabulous! I always assumed that the movie studio told Mr. Brazzi to wear this tiny suit for publicity reasons. I found this picture in an old Playboy magazine from the '60's in a series of articles about "Sex in CInema".

But the other day, I happened to find two other pictures of our Italian gentleman, wearing what appears to be the same little swimsuit.

The guy is hot, he knows it, and he lets the world get a good look. He's an Animan dude.

Another Goody from Old México

The other day, I came across this lobby card from a Mexican movie made in 1965. The character "Neutron" is Wolf Rubinskis, born in Latvia to Jewish parents. He became a naturalized Mexican citizen, and starred in many Mexican wrestling movies.
This photograph has all the elements of an Animan adventure. It's the mid-1960's. Here we are in sunny México, in an expensive apartment, with a beautiful view of the cityscape from the window. Two good-looking gentlemen are seated in the stylish living room, and cannot take their eyes from the half-naked body of the third man, who is standing. The men want him to get drunk and remove his trunks, so they're giving him brandy. Soon, all of them will be naked, and the fun will begin. Even the music will be supplied by "The Gay Crooners"! Caramba Amigos, it will surely become a very hot and interesting afternoon in old México!

Back to School for Animan

Animan is always studying how to make his videos better. Recently on Ebay, I found an old set of textbooks from the 1950's Famous Artists Course at a very reasonable price, so I bought them. The books are filled with fantastic illustrations and paintings created by many famous American artists and illustrators, such as Norman Rockwell. Techniques for good composition, shadows, lighting and balance are explained in great detail. I already know some of these things, but there are others that I don't know.I have a lot to learn!

One unexpected surprise in this course was these photographs. Nice Daddy! This is a real Animan-type of man! My only complaint? It's not in color! 

SEX ED--in English--Em Português

ENGLISH VERSION

A GUY’S BEST FRIEND

Fokker—(So that afternoon in the locker room, I started answering some of the boys’ questions.)

Bill—I had a wet dream last night!

Fokker—Yeah, I can see! (It was something new to Bill, this business of nocturnal emissions.) Let’s see—where was I? Oh yes! Here is the penis, and the scrotum that holds the testicles or testes inside. Now, when you’re around 14, maybe sooner maybe later, the testes start making a chemical substance called “a hormone”. It’s this hormone that causes the changes. It enlarges the penis itself, and starts hair growing here, under your arms, and on your face. Now, when a penis erects, gets hard, the sperm can come out in what’s called “an ejaculation”. Yes George?

George—Does an erection…..does that mean you have too much sperm and you ought to get rid of it?

Fokker—Get rid of it? Oh yes, that’s right! Then you can cause an ejaculation by yourself too, by masturbating….rubbing the penis. Do you all know what sperm is? 

Gary—Yeah, but how does it get there? You know, not just the sperm and egg stuff, I mean, well…..what really happens?

Fokker—Oh! What you want to know about is sexual intercourse. Well, that happens like this: here, here’s a cross-section of the vagina. The erect penis enters here, and rhythmic movements, a pumping back and forth, causes an ejaculation from the penis.

Radio—“Scandals!They’re everywhere. They’re in the air and you’ve put ‘em there. You, you and you, you nasty man! Scandals! You kiss and run, to have your fun with another one. Don’t say it isn’t so. A gal like me ought to know. Oh, you nasty man! Taking your love on the easy plan. Here and there and where you can. Oh, you nasty man! You’re not fooling me! I’ve got you figured from A to Z. But you’re darn good company. Oh! You big, bad man. You sweet and nasty, I know what’s on your mind. You pull a fasty—make me sizzle and then you’ll chisel. Oh you nasty man! I never met anyone who can be as bad or better than you! You nasty—Who taught you that? Oh, you nasty! Don’t ever do that! Oh you nasty man!”

Narration—During intercourse, the penis is in a state of erection. This is caused by the spongy tissue of the penis becoming engorged with blood. The sperm passes up through the ducts, where fluids from the glands are added to form the semen. The semen then flows through the urethral canal and is deposited into the male vagina. Here, we can see this fertilization in closer view.

Fokker—Hey! Not bad! You really poured it on! Say, it’s about time.

Gary—Hey, could we go on with this tomorrow?

Eric—Yeah, how about it?

Fokker—Sure, OK! Come on down early, huh?

The End

VERSÃO EM PORTUGUÊS

O MELHOR AMIGO PARA UM RAPAZ

Nenhum homem foi danificado durante a factura desta película. 

(Instituto superior)

(Classe para homens—Educação Sexual

Professor Fokker)

Fokker—(Essa tarde no vestuário, eu comecei responder a algumas das perguntas dos meninos.)

Bill—Eu tive polução noturna a noite passada.

Fokker—Sim, eu posso ver. (Este negócio de emissões nocturnas era algo novo para Bill.) Deixou-nos ver, que eu estava a dizer? Oh sim!  Este é o pénis. e o escroto que guardara os testículos para dentro. Quando você tiver ao redor 14 anos (talvez mais logo, talvez mais tarde), começam os testículos fazer uma substância química que é chamado uma hormona. É esta hormona que causa as mudanças. Amplia o pénis próprio, e liga o cabelo crescer aqui, sob seus braços, e em sua cara. Quando o pénis ergue e fica rigido, o esperma pode sair em o que é chamado “uma ejaculação”. Sim, George?

George—Sera que uma ereção significa que há demasiado esperma, e  deve obter livrado dela?

Fokker—Obter livrado dela? Oh sim, isso está correto. Então pode causar uma ejaculação por si mesmo também, pela masturbação—fricção do pénis. Vocês sabem o que é a esperma?

Gary—Sim, nós sabemos. Mas como chega lá? Não somente a explicação sobre o esperma e o ovo. Bem, o que é que acontece realmente?

Fokker—O que você quer saber é sobre relações sexuais. Bem, isso acontece assim:  aqui está um secção transversal da vagina. O pénis ereto entra aqui, e os movimentos rítmicos, um bombeamento para a frente e para trás, causam uma ejaculação do pénis.

Radio—“Os escândalos estão em toda parte. Estão no ar, e tu puseste-us lá. Tu e tu, seus tarados! Escândalos! Tu beijas e corres para ter teu divertimento com uma outra maís. Não diga que é mentira. Uma rapariga como eu deve saber. Oh, teu tarado! Fazes o amor tão convenientel. Em toda parte, e onde podes. Oh, teu tarado!  Não me podes enganar. pois eu compreendo-o de A a Z. Mas és mesmo companhia boa! Oh, teu malandro! Vems tão doce e com tesão. Eu sei o que estás a pensar. Com os teus truques, me aqueces e aproveitas de mim. .Oh, teu tarado! Eu nunca conheci ninguém que pode ser tão mal ou melhor do que tu és. Ah teu malandro! Quem te ensinou isso? Não faça mais isso! Ah, teu tarado!”

Narração—Durante o coito, o pénis está em um estado de ereção. Isso é causado pelo tecido esponjoso do pénis tornar-se ingurgitado com sangue. O esperma passa através dos dutos, onde fluidos das glândulas são adicionados para formar o sémen. Então o sêmen flui através do canal uretras e fica depositado na vagina masculina. Aqui, podemos ver essa fertilização atrav´s de um microscópio.

Fokker—Ei, nada mau! Vocês realmente deram tudo! Digo, é hora de terminar.

Gary—Podemos continuar amanhã?

Eric—Que tal?

Fokker—OK, tudo bem!  Venham cedo, hein?

FIM

Animan is Recovering Nicely

Exactly one week ago today, I woke up feeling terrible. I thought it was just a cold, but it was influenza! My nose was running like a river and I was coughing all day and night. Once I even coughed some blood! Needless to say, I didn't have the stamina to sit at my computer all day and evening making animation. I had to stay in bed.  
Today, Animan is feeling much better, so it's back to work!

My newest film is taking a long time to produce. Why? 
1) It's in wide-screen (more space to fill with drawings)
2) Shadows on the characters  (it's double the number of drawings)

Here are some screen shots for you to see. Our main character is a silver-haired doctor (again!) who is a big star at the Country Club. The other two guys are Mike (blue shirt) and Spencer (red shirt). 

Animan wants to make this film as beautiful as possible. So, I'm working super hard !

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Back when I was making Nooky Man, I created an original character with a shaved head. I included him again in my "All Stars" video as, "the Barbecue Guy". 

I was amazed the other day, when I received a message from a fellow who said that he looks like this character. He sent me his photo, and yes he does, except he has no beard! He will be doing the voice for Spencer in the Country Club video.

Right now, this Barbecue Dude is living in Alaska and will be moving to Colorado in May of this year. If you'd like to contact him, just send your data to Animan at this blog, and I'll make sure he gets it. Your privacy will be respected, and your data will remain secret.
