FEW!!!

well, here's the culmination of about 10 days of on and off animating. It's my entry for NATA's novice round, which theme is "The Elephant in the Room."

You might be a bit confused as to how I arrived at this take on the theme. Well, early on I realized that a lot of the contestants were going to go literal routes, and a lot of the contestants were going to go figurative routes. I kind of decided to take things a bit of a different route, to back things up, simplify the phrase a bit more:

"Big thing in a small place."

Bugs are small, very much so, but some are much bigger than others. So I took a bug that represents the epitome of small, the ant, and pitted against one of the biggest I could think of, conveniently named the elephant beetle.

Anyway, hope you guy's enjoy it. Don't forget to check out that KickStarter page at the end (it's gonna be an awesome series if they come up with the funding!).

Something about this makes me think it could be a cool simple series where the ant is constantly fighting with the elephant bug. Humor was good, but as always (with Flash movies in general) it just needs better timing, and I have no idea what so say about correcting that... it's why I don't make flash movies myself.

Ants have more legs then that. Other then that I really enjoyed this.


JerrodStorm responds:

I just knew someone was gonna comment on that. I tried adding the two legs, actually. they became too difficult to distinguish from the others when I was doing clean up. I appreciate the curiosity, though. :)
