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 The New Model on YouTube!

This one's going to feel very different from the final product because the orientation was flipped after the animatic process. I worked retail for years before I got into animation, and I pulled a lot from that experience in Office Depot and Fry's Electronics into background gags of this animatic.
One fun thing we did after all was said and done, our production assistant, Lorraine Bett, was huge into 3D printing at the time. Somehow in conversation, and I'm pretty sure it was Dave's idea, it came about that we could actually recreate this skit irl.
So we did, and you can watch it here! I made a cameo at the 24 second mark.

I think this is by far the funniest one I've watched yet. It had a wonderful line up to the punchline.
Perhaps a bit predictable or maybe I just have the same sense of humor because at the end I said, "He's going to motorboat those cheeks." And motorboat he did.
