Ether Jones is trying to meet President Hinckley's challenge before the end of the year. Mormon-themed cartoon goodness.

EDIT: By popular demand here is an explanation of what "President Hinckley's challenge" is- Pres. Hinckley is the Prophet or leader of the Mormon church (our equivalent of the Pope). He challenged all the members of the church to read the "Book of Mormon" (one of our sacred texts in addition to the Bible) before the end of the year with promises that anyone who did so would enjoy greater spirituality in their lives and draw closer to God.

This animation tells the story of a young man who procrastinated this challenge until new year's eve so has to read through the over 500 page book at break-neck speed.

The animations were fluent, the sounds were really good, it was an awesome "BoM in 5 seconds" kind of thing it was really funny. Great job man this is great! Keep it up! =D

"Lots of fun <3"

Although I definitely think you were exaggerating with the whole "excommunicated" thing. They wouldn't have kicked anyone out for not doing it.
I thought the voices were excellent and the jokes were really funny especially since I've read the BoM and understood what was supposed to be going on.
The animation is a little old by now but certainly not unpleasant.
Great job!

"This deserves WAY more then what it got."

date: September 25, 2008

I could've swore this would have gotten a Daily Feature or something, but you didn't even get Daily 3rd. Great animation, amazing voice overs, but still it got nothing.

The theme being 'religion' was the killer. I'm not Morman, myself, but I still love this. I really respect you for having the Mormon influence in a lot of your works. Never stop animating.

"Oh yes."

I'm biased, cause I'm an M-to the-ormon myself, but it WAS good. Nice synopsis. But, how could you leave out......wait....nope. You're basically spot on.
Good work!
