Hey. We haven't spoken in a while? How's the family?

Hello interwebs, what's up?

I'm here (yes, I'm in school. Don't judge me.) with Luke Harris, fellow co-founder of Squashed Toad Productions.

Who likes media studies? Oh, oh, I do!

No, I'm going to stop that. That was a load of silly stuff. Anyway, this is a simple post today, to announce plans for a merge of all the Squashed Toaad Productions websites. By this, I mean that there shall only be the one website, www.squashedtoadproductions.com, and that each character will have a section of the site. This will make it easier to navigate, and will also keep our own costs down, so we can spend more money on the Machinima itself.

We'll talk again soon. So will Luke. He loves you all.

2010: A fresh start

Thu, 31 Dec 2009 18:23:12 +0100

Ah, I remember I said rare updates. Well, that's going to stop now :)

Updates are now becoming regular, and we have capture equipment. Which WILL work. It cost a good £140, so it had better.

Everyone is working at full steam, and the final character pictures are coming online, including Thomas'.

Anyway, happy new year, and hope you all had a merry Christmas.

We'll be talking again, very soon :)

Remembrance

Just to point out, that when I was writing that Remembrance text, it was still the 11th

Good evening everybody.

Simple post tonight. We now have a Twitter page, which shall be updated more regularly than this blog. I put this post after the Remembrance one, btw, because of it simply being more respectful. Just if anyone wonders.

Here's the link

Simple as.

Well, that's all for now.

11/11

Today, was the day of Remembrance. We remembered all those that fought and died in the great war, in World War II, in Vietnam, in the Gulf War, in the Afghan war and every other conflict. We remember these people who did so much, so that the world would not fall into greater jeoprady, and people could have a better life.

These people, of course, were not just riflemen, or your average soldier stereotype. They were this as well as Pilots, Medics and more.

We remember them today for all they have done.

Rare Update

Sun, 18 Oct 2009 15:22:00 +0100

Nathan is the official name for our final permanent character! He also has a new website, www.Nathanstpro.yolasite.com

Sorry I'm not doing regular updates, but he probably will! And we ARE getting a new, £75 capture card for the series. We WILL be filming after, or maybe before Christmas.

Check out his site!

Sorry to say...

I'm sorry, everyone, for the huge delays. We've been meaning to film all summer. But why not? Our capture equipment has broken again.

This is going to call for great measures. Simply, don't expect ANY kind of update from the site for a long while. The machinima will still be made, but is to be kept under wraps for a while.

All in all, i'm sorry to say this is the last you will hear of this for a while.

See you again in a few months.

Jethro

News, news, exciting-ish news!

Fri, 31 Jul 2009 23:53:58 +0100

Good... Uh... Morning?

Well, glad we sorted that out. There is some rather important news, that, if it really gets down to it, will affect the website, series, or anything to do with this company. Kinda.

The news: Squashed Toad Productions may be changing it name. What to? Why? Well then...

What to? Well, that's a secret young one, that will be learnt with patience and other stuff that fits into that discription.

Why? Well, that's not the easiest question to answer. To be quite honest, a few members of the company think that it's... Not suited to the purpose of the company. Or that it just sucks. I for one, have to -Partially- agree. Anyway, it's not got that "Zing" that we want. Plus, it will be much easier for me to come up with a good logo, with the name we currently are thinking about.

And that's just about it. I'm preparing some ideas for the comic mentioned in our last post. It should be good, though. Very good. Or, uh, just moderately good. Something around those lines.

Well then, that's all for now folks. Tune in next time, for...

The final part of the Halo Wars review, along with an extended part, the DLC Map pack "Historic Battles" being reviewed along with it. All good fun, eh? The DLC Pack is made up of Four maps, that is, Barrens, Blood River, Memorial Basin and Glacial Ravine.

Well, cya again soon, with the rest of the review!

P.S- I luv u awl!

Greetings all. It's Twenty-Four past Twelve at night, and I'm just going to say hello, and give minor news. If there is any, I'll check.

Well, first of, a reminder: I've been preparing to start over on the Squashed Toad Productions email Subscriptions, which give information on the company sent straight to you! If you want to get these emails, please feel free to email Squashedtoadproductions@hotmail.com.

What next? Ah, yes, I'm going to be preparing the last part of Episode one of our machinima. One problem: We still don't have a name for it! This has been a problem Plaguing the company for nearly a year! We don't know what to call the Machinima!

But that's of no importance for the moment, not until we release, of course!

I'm very sorry to say that I have little more to say now, except I am planning to start a comic, starring the characters of the Machinima! The first one should be out in about a week, maybe a month if I'm busy (Which I'm sure I will be, but hey, what can I do?)

Well, that's it for now! I'll see you all again soon!

... I hope!

Been a good week?

Good, uh, morning, everyone! Jethro the Magnificent here once again, at one in the morning to bring news from yonder!

No? Gone too far? Well, alright then. Spoil my fun.

I Suppose you just want some news. Alright then, lets get down to it.

First off: Our final (Or at least, final planned) addition to Squashed Toad Productions is Nathan Attar, who is going to be playing a secondary character in the Machinima. He will also be giving some ideas on scripting, and comedy. He's rather good, I must say.

Second: Some of you may have given up looking at the other websites, due to inactivity. I don't know if they are still inactive, I gave up looking at Jonathons a long time ago. Don't worry though, as I'm going to be cracking down on this. A website for Dean (James), Nathan (Possibly still called Nathan) and Daniel (Not got a name at all yet) will be created. I can be honest in saying Nathan will work on it. He uses the internet alot, these days. Daniel probably will, when he's not working on other stuff, and Dean might not be frequent, due to not having full time acess to a computer.

Well, hope that clears up some stuff, so please welcome (In your minds) Nathan Attar to the team, and have a brilliant morning!
