Hello world. My name is Lozz and I am a co-creator of Sheepcake Productions Limited. Myself and my friend, Ash (the other creator of Sheepcake) are amazingly happy with the success we are having with our productions.
To tell you a bit more about Sheepcake Productions, I must mention the amazing Eddsworld and a lot of YouTube. You see, myself and my friend Ash are massive fans of Eddsworld, the super talented animators. We saw their animations and we only had one thought: 'lets do that'. Needless to say, that failed miserably. Oh, the determination was there as was the inspiration, but our Macromedia Flash 8 failed on us so we lost everything we created. Fortunately for us, I came up with another option.
If you've ever wrote a fanfiction, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about when I say that www.fanfiction.net saved us. I was already on FF, I joined in January of 2009 and I had written some pieces on there already when I said to Ash 'well, instead of animating our script, why don't we make a story out of it instead?'. She didn't understand what I was saying at first but when I mentioned the words 'humour', 'Twilight analogies' and 'disclaimers' she was up for it.
When writing the initial script, we had encountered a few problems: one was that, with only two people, there couldn't be much action. We needed a third member for our script and when I asked Lizzy to help us, she said yes even though we couldn't meet up with her because she lived too far away. It was one of the best things we could have done, turning our simple script into an 8 chaptered masterpiece that the world has seen. We took it in turns to write the chapters and made sure that we included many things from the script. It took a very long time to finish, but we did and it's still up there now.
We had such a good following on FF that our trusted betareader and friend Olivia (she is amazing at editing) decided to make us a website. It's made with Proboards so it's more like a forum than a webbie, but we have a few members on there. Of course, me, Ash, Lizzy and Olivia were on there and that seemed good enough for us but a fan spotted the link on my profile and joined. After that, another three people joined us and now we have quite a snuggly little Sheepcake family. We're joping that we'll be able to re-write the script so that we can film ZZZZombies! and post it on YouTube, but that's a long way off yet. We're currently working on the script for our second story called ZZZZombies 2: Home Edition. It's coming along pretty nicely :)
