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 Cookie Jar on YouTube!

This one went through a couple of revisions before it came out the way it did, but I loved this one. I PULVERIZED the audioscape with Gundam references, in sound effects for the time machine and using a track from the 08th MS Team as temp music. Seemed like dire, doomy sci-fi music and fitting for the theme.

There used to be a scene between the kid's shocked expression upon learning he's him from the future and the "Now gimme all those cookies" turnaround, where the music got all sad and piano-keyed as the time-traveler pleaded and begged him to not take the cookies and turn his life around, "You have to believe me...Please!" before procuring his gun and delivering his line "Now gimme all those cookies."

At the time, I liked the mood-swingy nature of him, because he looked like a crazy person to me, but I agree it was a good idea to cut it out. I loved the time-travelers design- I can't remember if he was custom made for the short or if he was a model re-used from something we've done before, but I was told to specifically design him that way. The time machine I made up on the fly, it's pretty much just a futuristic phone booth, lol. I got the bowling-ball hole designs from 80s-90s animes I grew up watching as a kid and snuck them into his bionic eye to make it look even more futuristic.
