The Making of SpaceBase:Infinity – part 1

Sunday was another productive day for the SGP crew!

We managed to create the head designs for all of the characters. However, due to our lack of baking skillz, we left the heads in a little too long and some came out with cracks. We were able to patch them so not all is lost, plus now that we have the general ideas in tangible form it shouldn’t be too bad to fashion some replacement heads.

Throughout the day we did some filming and threw together the beginnings of our protracted making of documentary. Or maybe its a video blog (VLOG??). However you say it, I’m sure it will provide the masses with insights into our meticulous creative process.



Here are some work in process pictures for the heads:

SB Infinity Follow-up Pics!

In the interest of maintaining a slow steady stream of posts on this site, I present to the masses some pics of our first hands-on design/animation session!

Postmortem: Vacation

UPDATED 9/20/2011: Bonus unfinished tracks added to the end of the original write-up…

It’s been a month or two since release and close to a year since the last recording for the Vacation EP.  I gave it a listen recently for the first time in months and figured I’d post my impressions of the project now that I’m removed from making it.  Overall, a few things jump out at me as I listen.

The Name EP Release!

The Name EP

At long last Small Glowing Pig presents The Name EP, a different sound and feel from past projects on the label. On this album, musical duo The Name experiment with sampling their own music and incorporating live performance elements into a very groove-oriented sound.

Check our main website or click here for more info and a link to download the EP. Possible live performances to follow, most likely in the greater Hartford area. Stay tuned!
