There's been a myraid of respones about the silence....
Glad you liked the movements! I stalked several cats, trying to watch how they moved... they kept running away, so finally I had to rely on an anatomy book, videos and guesswork.
cool! i love all the characters especialy the sparrow
i like how the cat was trolling them and his name is cat-s-troll it might not have been on purpose but i thought it was funny.
style!
i like your style.
i hope to see more from you. that was very cool. funny.
did you do it all in flash?
or was some of it imported or something?
either way very nice piece of art!
yes, i do believe the better flash movies and games qualify as art.
AkaiHato responds:
Thanks! Yes, it was all done in flash with a tablet-mouse.
There's always a bruhaha over what's art and what's not, but Flash movies are in film festivals now, so that's gotta be something!
Have you seen Nina Paley's flash-based animations, where she re-tells the Indian story Ramayana? (<a href="http://www.ninapaley.com/Sitayana/">http://www.ninapaley.com/Sitayana/</a>) She's got a sad story behind why she decided to make the animations.
I like it.
That is all.
AkaiHato responds:
I like your response.
great story
just a few things I would change: you don't need to add more music, but it could at least use some background effects (chirping, wind, nature sounds, etc) so it's not dead silent.
and you would say "living people" not "alive people"
out of curiosity: any explaination for the walking bird, flying squirrel and aqua-monkey?
AkaiHato responds:
Yeah, I think I will try and get some ambience.
I also want to draw some more comics or something, because the characters have more stories.
