I think it took the animator about 6 months to do....hours and hours! It was a gift that showed up in my email box 2 years ago from a stranger who heard my song on Sirius/XM radio. I was honored to meet him at one of my concerts in MA. His name is Dennis Mazur.---Laura

i love this song! and the animation is adorable! :) i've added it to my playlist.

how many hours did it take to make it? i've never tried animating before but plan to buy toon boom. i'm wondering how many hours of work it takes to make a clip of this length. obviously you have lots of experience/practice, and one hour of work for you will produce more/better work than one hour of work for me, but i'd still like to know how long it took you.

also, did you use cut out animation to make it?
