  • Kickass cartoon dude, worth 5/5. Great lesson and story. How did you convert your SWF file to MPEG?

  • I exported all the animation from Flash as a .png sequence of images. then i did all my post production in AfterEffects (added a few blurs and put in the audio). AfterEffects can render Mpeg as well as high quality video for DVD's.

  • Good cartoon! Question, how did you animate the mouths, manually or use a program?

  • Manually. and most of the time, if there was mouth movement, i'd redraw the mouth shapes frame by frame.  there are probably faster ways to do it. but i like the control i get doing it frame by frame.

  • thank you everyone for the nice comments. i promise, my next short is in production and i'll get it done as soon as i can.

  • @uselesstomato you will

  • Yusef is not a hard name!

  • Fantastic. I totally get it, too--I'm black mixed with white and Cherokee, and people always ask if I'm Latina. Anyway, jolly good show, man.

  • My dad is Puerto Rican & Comanche. I'm a mix-but albino by comparision. A kid in jr high cracked a pocahontas joke once after my dad picked me up one day. I threatened to 'scalp' him if he didnt shut up. I got sent to the office.My dad padded in, calm as hell, long hair and mean brown eyes ablaze. Five minutes later, we left. The kid's dad thought I had scared his brat without cause, because I looked white. He almost peed when he saw my dad. Moral: I can totally relate. Keep lighthearted! :)
