Nothing ground-breaking here in terms of animation, but doing this stuff in CG takes work. You're constantly finding ways to work around the inherent stiffness in the software tools.
Painting the backgrounds was a lot of fun. They're heavily influenced by the golden age cartoons, of course. And if you've seen the recent trio of cartoon paintings I posted(here, here and here), you'll spot all three of them in the background of this piece. Yes, that was the plan from the beginning. Although making those paintings was great fun in itself.
Enjoy!
