The Work Of Camille Young.

Let me take a moment to give you a quick and brief background on the Mother 3 Fan Translation (See here for the full story). Mother 3 is the third game in the Earthbound  series from creator Shigesato Itoi. Originally set for release on the Super Famicom in 1994, it finally arrived in April 2006 (over a decade later) at which point the SNES was long gone and the Gameboy Advance became Mother 3′s eventual home. After 7 months of waiting patiently for word of an official release outside of Japan fans decided to take matters into their own hands through Do-It-Yourself Devotion.

The Work of Camille Young.

I’m pleased to announce that early next week I will be publishing KyozoKicks second interview with Camille Young (These interview are quickly becoming one of my favorite things to do – besides the shoes of course). For those who may be unaware, Camille is the artist / sculptor behind those amazing Mother 3 figures (a whopping 46 in total!) which found there way into the equally impressive, not to mention fan made – Mother 3 handbook.

Camille lets me know about how she became involved, the process and her feelings now the series has come to a close (not to mention what happened to them all!)

I hope you will pop back and read all about it, like my recent Jacob Patterson interview (still available here) it will be split into two parts which means more room for people to talk and more room for pictures!

Recently hitting over 4000 subscribers on YouTube, Jacob Patterson from WiggaTriggaTV was kind enough to donate some of his time to KyozoKicks. Over the course of the two part interview we get to discuss how he first got on the scene, the ease at which an artist can interact with their critics in 2009, projects from the past, present and future as well as life and art outside of customizing.

Konnichiwa,

In the spirit of Kyozokicks, instead of just linking to the work I’m trying my hardest to get in contact with the people behind the art. I want to find out about the process. Not only that I want to find out about the person. The first of what I hope will become a great line up of names is with Mr Jacob Patterson from WiggaTriggaTV. Well known to the customizing shoe community Jacob will be joining us to not only chat about his shoes, but his love and passion for art, video games and life.

If you can’t wait head over to Jacob’s YouTube channel or Myspace page right now to get your fix.

Thanks to Jacob and all those reading KyozoKicks.
