  • BootLegged Lore:

    I might try turning BootLegged into little comic panels or whatever, but basically the story I had so far was that the owner of a company that sells boots had IG on their shelves, when IG escaped with Sseugetinifni (they were the rarest boots in stock) the “Boss” sent Peri to retrieve the boots, after she changes her mind and decides to help IG, but IG is ruining his company so bad by taking his boots behind Peri’s back that he plots to hunt them down and take back what was rightfully his. The whole joke is that the supposed bad guy is actually just an innocent dude trying to save his company.

    He was also born with very small legs.

  • No way Peri lore
    Apologies if this sucks, I am not the best when it comes to storytelling and am slightly uncreative so forgive me for my mediocre writing skills. This is going to be a bit long so I hope you like reading.

    Peri is born, her mother dies when she is young, fatherless and now motherless child gets put in a boarding school at the age of 14. She gets bullied by the daughter of one of the staff workers. Let’s call this character that will probably never be named โ€œJaneโ€ as a placeholder because it’s the most basic name I could think of.

    โ€œJaneโ€ makes fun of Peri because that’s her way of coping with the recent divorce her mother went through. But after weeks of doing so, it just became a bad habit of hers, Peri was confused about why she was being targeted and became quickly agitated with Jane. She then got a new reason to hate her because her mother started to treat Peri like her own child. Jane became much more envious of Peri, treating her worse than before. Peri went from being teased to being verbally abused. Jane would do all of this behind her motherโ€™s back, being two-faced and acting differently in front of her. But Janeโ€™s mother, being oblivious to the situation, told Jane that she was thinking of adopting Peri. Infuriated and most likely jealous, Jane plotted to aggravate Peri, thus causing Janeโ€™s mother to rethink her decision.

    Jane proceeds to steal a picture frame from Periโ€™s room while sheโ€™s out, that picture frame happens to contain the last picture of Periโ€™s mother. When Peri returns to her room, she notices that the photograph of her mother has gone missing. She immediately suspects that Jane took it and leaves the room to search for her. Jane had taken the picture out of the frame and taken it with her for recreation in the schoolโ€™s courtyard. Peri confronts Jane, she asks where the picture went, and Jane pulls it out of her pocket and does the cliche โ€œOh you mean this?โ€

    Peri tries to take it back, but gets pushed aside and teased about how her mother is gone, Jane then begins to slightly rip the picture, trying to get Peri to attempt to get physical so that she can use that against her. Peri tries to maintain herself but Jane takes it too far and rips the photo in half.

    โ€œOops.โ€

    Clenching her fists, Peri yells in a fit of rage. Seconds later, wailing can be heard. Peri looks up to see that Janeโ€™s hand has been contorted into an unnatural state. She is paralyzed in fear as Jane is shouting in pain. Everyone else in the courtyard was startled by the screaming and saw that Janeโ€™s hand had been broken. Peri was shocked, she didnโ€™t know what to do or how she caused this to happen.

    After that Peri was put into Juvenile Detention, and Janeโ€™s mother ended up not adopting Peri after Jane explained what happened on their way to the hospital. Jane, still in pain, was confused. Peri never took a step forward, but somehow her hand ended up being damaged. All Jane could recall was a faint purple glow, and then the cracking of bones. More importantly, she didnโ€™t think a broken hand was worth Peri not getting adopted.

    Peri on the other hand was just as confused. She didnโ€™t move an inch, she only thought about what she wanted to do, but she didn’t actually want to break Janeโ€™s hand, she just wanted to make her feel how she felt. Oh well, it was too late to do anything about it now, she got what she deserved and that was the end of it. After spending some time in Juvenile Detention, Peri began noticing objects she looked at would move by themselves. She thought she was just seeing things, but the more she would focus on the object, the more it would become apparent that they arenโ€™t moving by themselves, Peri was moving them. She came to the conclusion that her confrontation with Jane evoked this strange ability.

    After her time in Juvenile Detention, she was sent to a different boarding school, since the previous one didnโ€™t want to deal with Periโ€™s little โ€œincidentโ€. Peri was mostly avoided since word got around pretty quickly about what happened, but this didnโ€™t really bother Peri, she was more focused on her new ability to interact with things without physically touching them. As she grew, so did her power; by the time Peri was 16 she could easily lift up objects such as bottles, books, and chairs, she could open doors without needing to physically push or pull a handle, and she could even press buttons just by looking at them.

    After she finished school she now had to live on her own. So she started working at retail stores to earn some money. After working for a considerable amount of time, she managed to save up enough money to live in a small apartment.

    (Now for some ideas/trivia stuff)
    Idea for Peri in BootLegged was she was going to come across a hitman business, and would be hired not to kill, but to retrieve people. All she had to do was use her psychokinesis and drag them back to the dudes who hired her and she would get paid. (Explains why she went looking for…[Read more]

  • Oh yeah I forgot I had written a script for the first episode, wasn\’t finished but here have a read if you want

    The Boot Bandit

    IG and SE find a very comfortable roof to store the boots they steal- I mean borrow because he thinks that if the boots were sentient like him, they would want to leave too. JD is now recovering in the hospital, so we cut to a scene of the boss (he\’s a stereotypical big bald guy in a suit but red) discussing with an unknown character, wanting to have โ€œThe Boot Bandit\’\’ brought to him, as well as SE. Then we cut back to the protags, but this time they are experimenting with the fabricators on IG. He touches some electrical wires close to the roof, and they absorb the electricity, he then sends it back out which just releases the energy into the air. SE begins to understand how it works, IG absorbs some more electrical energy and passes it onto SE, which works and now it can release it too. Cut to (Anonymous) investigating the old locations, then he comes across WurstMayers, and starts interrogating the seller or whatever you call them. (Anonymous) asks if theyโ€™ve seen a green man with a boot, and if they know where he went. After that (Anonymous) finds a building wall that\’s been recently damaged, probably from the car crash. Cut back protags, and IG and SE are still messing around with the fabricators, but then IG accidentally knocked a boot over and it fell over the side of the building. IG panics and jumps off the roof to get the boot. Cut back to (Anonymous) walking when they notice IG falling into a dumpster, then, the confrontation happens, (Anonymous) is revealed, and the funny occurs. Dumpster starts sliding with a purple glow and hits IG, he drops the boot, (Anonymous) picks it up, but its not SE, she looks back to see IG is gone, he is running away, but now we see that she is telekinetic, and IG gets slammed into a wall, she questions him but IG absorbs the telekinetic energy and releases it, creating a small shockwave, causing the woman, know known as Peri, to fall over. IG flees and she follows, chase scene ensues. IG attempts to get back up the building but Peri throws him into some cars. Heโ€™s like โ€œWhat do you want from me!!1?1!?โ€ and Periโ€™s like, โ€œWHERE ARE THEY (the boots)โ€ and IG realizes that they are trying to get SG, so he books it

    Then it ends there, looks like I didn\’t finish it lol

    Anyways, I\’m gonna be writing about Peri\’s backstory next, so yeah uhhh how do I end this

            JD (John Doe) was the dude in episode 1 who got his car crashed, this script wasn’t meant to be read by anyone but me because I understand what it means, so sorry if its confusing.

  • 2022 vs 2020
    Quick little exposรฉ, I had an old OC named Lilith, she was supposed to be the badass female lead for an old series I had made called dominodes, which was basically just a jojo ripoff with some differences. However, Peri was technically meant to be the same thing for BootLegged.

    Peri and Lilith are technically the same concept for an OC, and they even look the same (not on purpose). Long coat, black and white shoes, solid color shirt, and even have supernatural abilities.

    Do what you want with this information, just thought it was neat how similar they are. However I do think Peri is better because she actually has backstory and is much more fleshed out, just need to write it out sjwbisjs

  • Profile picture of Luna

    Luna joined the group Group logo of IGOCGIGOCG 3 years, 10 months ago

  • Important Announcement 2/2

    This group is being repurposed, for OC stuff, and maybe posting finished remakes who knows. But basically, Bootlegged is becoming a side thing where I explain my OCs, who they are, what they do yada yada

    So yeah, I\’m doing OC remakes again, back to doing what I like. (If you want a remake leave image of your OC in the comments, I\’m only gonna choose maybe 2 this time)

    Anyways here are some ideas I had for Bootlegged that will never get animated or seen.

    IG would create would find a polyfill, use the fabricators to make a Poly-Boot, but ultimately creates The Polyfill, the funny man-eating monster thing I made up.

    Peri and IG were going to fight for the boots in the second half of episode 2, and then become friends after JoJo-style.

    Peri introduces human stuff to IG, one episode being they would\’ve gone to a mall, only for IG to get lost in the mall as Peri were to fight the dudes who are trying to take the IG and SE (Sseugetinifni)

    One joke was that IG would have discovered what an escalator was and would\’ve rode it up and down like an attraction, all while Peri was fighting.

    Another joke was that
    *Love interest walks past hot dog stand*
    *Andie sees love interest*
    *Hot dog cart handle straightens or \”goes stiff\”*

    Lane would\’ve been a side character, with his own episode or whatever

    Peri would\’ve explained her backstory to IG in one episode

    There was gonna be an antagonist that could shape-shift

    Red balding dude from the first half of the second episode was the boss mentioned in episode one. He would\’ve had big buff body guards, because his design is just a dude in a suit, but with really short legs.

    Theres more but this post is getting long so
    TLDR; Group is getting repurposed, remakes are back and Bootlegged stuff

    Ok bye

  • Important announcement 1/2
    Yesterday night, I did a lot of thinking, and I’m not exactly in the best mood rn.

    I’m going to cut this short for anyone who doesn’t want to read a long paragraph.

    Bootlegged is cancelled, but not in the way you think.

    I’m not gonna animate it anymore, I’m gonna take on a different method, words. Their lore will not go to waste, but the animation sorta did.

    Basically, I’ve come to the realization that I’m not gonna promise something I’m not capable of doing, and postponing for some mediocre 7-10 minute video isn’t something I wanna do.

    I wanna go back to doing animations for the fun of it, because storytelling is not something I can convey through animation, because I suck at it.

    I want to improve, but I literally have better things to do than procrastinate and rush something that I thought would make me happy.

    TLDR; Here is everything that was done so far, I will still work on this, I just won’t be animating it anymore since it makes me feel unproductive. I hate to admit it, but posting this feels like lifting a huge weight off of my shoulders.

  • Revamped Andie (never actually gave her a name ’til now dqbuiofx)

    She works at a food stand serving hot dogs, but most of the time she’s just browsing on her phone instead of actually working.

    Also comparison

  • Episode idea i had that will probably never happen #1

    IG screws with the multiverse

    10
  • First 2 minutes done, probably gonna do 7-10 minutes because there is no way I’m doing normal length of like 20-25.

    Anyways quick update, everything’s going good, pretty happy with what I’ve got, and I might even be done with it by the end of the month (if I don’t procrastinate)

    Gotta good little schedule for when to work on this while also making time for other stuff so thats cool.

    I’ve just been getting tons of ideas for what to do with this series, and I’m glad I can actually work on something that doesn’t stress me out. I’ve thought about making Peri a main character, adding Lane as a side character, implementing oc cameos (like a collaboration ig), ideas for antagonists, more side characters, and some other stuff that isn’t that important (episode plots).

    But yeah thats pretty much it, it’s fun to brainstorm tbh.

    Here’s a gif to compensate for all the text.

  • Side characters from pilot in full, might remake but here (these are old)

  • Ok back to animating

  • So I was thinking about the old hair, some made me consider it since it’s more unique, so idk if I’ll use the new one, plus I now that I think about it, it’s less recognizable than the old hair.

    So I might just use the new body, last time I saw the poll it was a tie so (It’s 55 to 45 now but whatever)
