Australia Day

Thanks for the Front Page.

January 26th is Australia day. I got up at 5am and decided to make a cartoon in celebration. 8 hours later, here it is!

Credit goes to Telstra BigPond for the audio in this short animation. Thanks for watching and Happy Australia Day!

EDIT:
TRANSLATION: Instead of January 26th, think July 4th, and imagine a history teacher asking, "What is the significance of July 4th to Americans" and getting back, "We get to stay home and have a barbecue." Pretty much the same reaction. And then the dad would say "Next time, maybe you should mention the fireworks". - Illusion-XIII

So bloody true though

Exellent!

Although short, this flash is VERY high in quality!

I especially like the voice acting and your high focous on details. The little details makes everything so much better.

Just that the teacher takes of her glasses while she's talking, and the boy "stretches" when he's happy is priceless!

More of this! =)

Sweet mate :)

loved the cover to the Telstra ad. and of course my bday is on australia day as well mate :) lol :P

hahaha classic

i do remember that ad. mate if only they started playing the ads like this then the tv stations ratings might go up a lil :D

That Telstra ad!

Aw mate, it's THAT AD. I bet if they shot the ad that way it would've been even better. It's also great to see another Australian animating stuff like this, the way you drew that 'keep the rabbits out' guy was funny as.

Good stuff
