Joe (1987), and M.A.S.K (1985). <br /><br />Both were targeted towards a child-male audience, (watch the show, buy the action figures!) and were based upon fighting a kind of criminal organization (COBRA, V.E.N.O.M.). I'm also aiming to push the Villain's tone as well as the Villain organisation's tone within a lighter mood then I made it seem. (Drawing inspiration to Bebop and Rocksteady - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7JbJSClP9w) <br /><br />I apologise as I never made that as clear as I should have.<br /><br />I'll be putting up a separate follow-up post soon dedicated to the tone elements of the show. <br /><br />Thanks for the feedback Justin. :)Ryan Leitaohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08911142736056428927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3762413563281043246.post-49984578238995224742011-10-09T23:14:38.876+01:002011-10-09T23:14:38.876+01:00Hi Ryan,

Remember that this project is about following the wishes of the client. That means trimming a lot of fat, and cutting out the darker elements. Essentially, you need a lighter tone, injecting more humour etc. I dont think you need to change the story and characters, but there needs needs to be a radical shift in toneJustin Wyatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00102510350311150592noreply@blogger.com
