This is owned by Explosm Entertainment, but I drew and animated everything here! This is an animatic, not the final animation, but if you're interested in how it turned out, click here to watch Gym Class on YouTube!

This one was a MAD DASH clusterfuck.
We were just about to get started on Season 3 of the Cyanide & Happiness show, which was a really big deal because it was bigger and badder than anything we've done before. So, to celebrate, a significant chunk of the team went and rented out an Air BNB in the mountains of Boulder Colorado for a nice couple of days of R&R before we hit the ground running on the season.
The problem was, this short was the last animated short in the pipeline before we got to work on the season. Each weekday spent in Colorado was time that had been penned in to work on Gym Class, so when we came back, the deadline didn't move.
We had something like two or three days to complete the animatic for this short.
Every single person that worked on animatics pitched in to help out. Including Mike Salcedo, our animation director. It was a Voltron team effort that turned this thing around on-time at the last minute, and just coming back from Colorado and launching into Season 3 right afterwards? It was an incredible feeling. I truly love this team.
I added initials to each segment to clarify who worked on what.

Keep in mind, we knocked this out in only a few days. This is not our best work at all, lmao. Follow those guys to see what they do when they're not cramming for something at the last minute and be amazed.

This is a nice animatic but how did it get 5th place? It’s an animatic.
-str-
Well that's simple- it's an animatic.
I remember this one.
So basically Suzy had a handicap because she had a lot of practice with her wheelchair. She clearly had an unfair advantage in this scenario.
The true bully here is Suzy.
