Fat-Pie Update

Posted by Doki - September 12th, 2007


Hello there. Apologies for promising a new Salad Fingers and then not releasing it. I'm still waiting for permission for the music. I had to ask a friend to write up an agreement for the musician (he requested one) and now we're waiting for a response.

Anyway that doesn't mean I've been doing nothing. I've just completed an animated segment for Jim Ether's forthcoming movie entitled "Onward To Calgary" (screen shot below). He supplied the Audio and I made some visuals to accompany. He's got a few other animators on board as well, so it should be very interesting to see how that comes out.

Also, we (Crust and myself) have been recording a series of audio segments and sketches, eventually, hopefully for some variety of Fat-Pie podcast type thing. So far it's been pretty crazy and a quite a challenge as we've been ad-libbing the entire thing. Don't expect anything soon though, we're aiming to record a whole series before we release anything.

But, the main project I've been working on, again with Crust, is a series of mini cartoons for Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe. Rather than focusing them on Television as before, we're going for more of a narrative approach using characters we've been developing for years, ones that have appeared in some of the old Fat-Pie full lengths and a host of new ones. We've tried pushing this concept for a Television series for a while, and getting mini episodes screened is a big step. There are going to be 4 mini episodes in total (with a 5th realeased on the web) at about 1:30 each. Because of this time restraint, we have resorted to cramming as much as we can into each episode, resulting some of the fastest paced cartoons we have ever made. SO look out for these on the new series of Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe BBC4 - I'm not sure if it broadcasts in America, but as usual they'll appear on my site shortly after they're aired.

Fat-Pie Cartoons from last series of Screenwipe:
Twinkletits
Christmas (Unaired)
Jerry's Replacement Christmas Cartoon
TV Is Shit
Panel Shows
The Blob's Performance
Jerry's TV Cartoon (Unaired)

So there you go. And as for Salad Fingers 8, it could come out this week, or next month. I really can't tell.

Well good!

i love salad fingers.. so i cant wait

I love you David, and Crust, and all of the wonderful creations on fat-piez ><

Sucks that you gotta wait to hear back about the music :(

Good news however about some new stuff from you and crust :D Seen several of those toons you posted on your site, but it was nice to get some new doki content :3 I'm sure all of newgrounds is quite excited for salad fingers 8, i'm just happy to see anything from you these days ;) however, of course i'm excited for 8 as well.

i still miss the fat-pie forums :X

The forums took all the mystery out of fat-pie, and replaced it with "OMFG PONIES"

excelent! i didn't even think that you would make a new salad finger episode! this just made my day the best day of today! a'aight!

I shall look out for the new series of Screenwipe...since earlier series were so good...

Thanks for the update, I'll look forward to your work :)

Hurray! I can't wait! :D

How much longer to the Salad Fingers 8: Cupboard? I like Salad Fingers so much that I showed all 7 episodes to one of my teachers last year, this year I'm showing it to another teacher as well. My sister and my dad liked it too. I just wish I had a release date for Epiosde 8...

~your fan, Krakerz--

You really do deserve your own TV series. It would be amazing.

Maybe you should just focus on releasing the next Salad fingers. Then when you finally get permission you can release this one as "Salad fingers: The lost episode"

looks very promising. .. canĀ“t wait for it.

wat2go jerry!
