up coming animations

after the christmas special, the following animations will be in line for production as follows......

HAMSTERS RULE TRAILER

this will be a trailer to the whole series of Hamsters Rule. it will be about 3 minutes long roughly, and will be introducing some of the funniest and baddest characters as well as the main story line of the series.

HAMSTERS RULE - EPISODE 1 - THE BEGINNING

as said in an earlier post, each episode will be release in parts due to their length of time, each episode will be between 15 -20 minutes long

Nick is a typical teenage boy. He is unpopular, but wants to be popular, He tries everything to win the heart of the girl of his dreams, he has a hard bully to deal with, and a bastard of a rival to deal with to, and lives in the town of torpoint where there are many of beer loving characters, but his life is about to change dramatically when Jasper, Salt, Pepper, Marlon, Sox, and Cresty ( in episode 2) get involved in his life.

Nick rescues Jasper and Marlon from a crazy old Hobo after being chased into a forest by school bully Buster and his friends Mitch and Porker.
Jasper, who develops a love hate relationship with Nicks fat lazy stubborn cat Sox, decides to return the favour by becoming Nicks "buddy for life" but the thing is Jaspers heart is in the right place, but unfortunately his brain isnt, and after preforming a good deed by saving Nick from getting a pasting by Buster, He then sets Az Dunntorg (a well hated camp rich kid who's farther is the chief police constable of Torpoint) on fire and gets Nick and his two friends Dan and Tom in trouble, which is when Jasper two cousins, Salt and Pepper come to the rescue and bail them out with a week off school, and after saving Nick from a 3 possible pasting Nick excepts their offer of friendship and lets them stay,.... but with some thoughts of regret lol

HAMSTERS RULE - EPISODE 2 - MARLONS RAGE!

Marlon is distraught when he discovers his beloved cafe lattes might possibly be taken off the shelf forever thanks to a fire at the factory, and rapidly starts to have withdrawal symptoms and eventually goes into an un-controlable rage and starts wrecking the town, Nick, Jasper, Salt and Pepper, try to calm him down and have some close shaves in the process and are bugged about why a gecko called Cresty just starts following them around, eventually PC Dunntrog decides to call in for back up and orders a sniper to take Marlon out when he gets hold of a flamethrower, can someone get Marlon a cafe latte before its too late ???

hope you enjoyed reading, and we'll keep you posted ! ; )

an update on production!

Jeffcoate Studio's has now finished the second part of the christmas specail of Hamsters Rule, due to some up coming collage work, Jeffcoate studio's is may slow down slightly with this production of this animation (as predicted) but dont worry! the animation will be completed before christmas and there is plans to add some more shorts to the christmas specail. This will involve either shortening or getting rid of one long short, but the characters of that short will be in the animation else where, .....Except Az because no one likes him! Lol !

R.I.P Sam Basset


Jeffcoate studio's would like to dedicate this post in memory of Sam Basset from Torpoint who was killed in action on sunday when a bomb exploded in afghanistan.
he was just 20 years old.
he will be sadly be missed by all his friends in Torpoint, and know one will know the pain that his family are going through at this present time.
it is very sad, in fact devestating that he is gone, but he died doing what he loved and was very brave for giving his life for our country in this war

"may you rest in peace sam, your a true hero, only spoke to you a couple times but you were a nice lad and you wont ever be forgotten"

christmas specail !


My first uploaded animation will be the Christmas special of my on going series hamsters rule. for those who don't know anything about my series, hamsters rule is my own created series which i have had for many years. I have wrote many storylines for episodes along with creating many characters (i think i roughly have 100), and i have even planned two movies (makeing them will take a couple years lol so i dont plan to start making them intill further in my career), I really hope to progress with hamsters rule in the future, and I want to continue to improve with my skills with the more animations i make, so i will always be greatfull for any pointers and advise. the Christmas special is only about 6 minutes long, whereas my other episodes are about 20 minutes and will be realeased in parts as i complete them, take care all il keep you posted, over and out ;), ......p.s, oh yeah lol, just to let people know what ever i create any audio i use that isnt created by myslef will always be referenced to those who created it, (i agree 100% with the whole copyright thing obviously) anything i do create that has something, like for example, 50 cent music in it will be very rare (because i probably would never get permission to use that sort of thing till later in my career from the distributor, in fact i only plan to do one) and more aless will just be for something like an intro which i plan to create and again will be fully referenced to the creator regarless, il keep you posted
