Hi Remy.
You picked up the one darn mistake in the whole thing. I knew I accidentally left it out and hoped no one would notice :oops:

Cheers

Just for kicks DK. I do not see a way to download these. Never mind. I downloaded download helper and it had a download option. I can see now.
Sorry for bad animation

Hi sbtamu
If you right click (windows) on the link and select "Save As" you should be able to download them directly to your computer and play them there.

Thanks Dk. I had a old age moment. I have downloaded links many many times in my internet life but totally went blank on this one. I got used to people just uploading to youtube or other video host.

Nice. One thing i would have liked though is if the old elephant was a lot more distinct from the other two - like really broke down and decrepit. But that probably not what the client would want. Might just be the small size, but they all seemed the same age.

Also not trying to advertise TBA, but I know Toon Boom Studio has an auto gap filling tolerance on the paint bucket tool, as well as a gap closing tool [which is essentially an invisible to the camera line you can draw which the fill tool respects]. These are for the dashed line style animations. Maybe if you are thinking of producing more of these cel type animations, this might make your life easier.

Just watched it.

Nice.

May have been covered already - @ 24 seconds (I think) when he waters the plants with his trunk ... surely the plant is supposed to be under his trunk by that time? Maybe its a rough draft or something, but that struck me as kind of odd that the plant only gets put in position once the watering is done?

Hey Mikdog....you totally missed the gag dude!!!! :lol:
He is an old elephant right/ so he's getting a bit dottery, you know, forgetfull? Anyways, that was the scriptwriters idea of a visual gag and don't worry personally I did'nt find it funny either but they insisted we put it in. Funnily the client was really concerned about that watering part as they thought people might misconsctrue the water as the elephant being incontinent.

Hi DK, I've been thinking on a better way to speed up your workflow.
I think that you can avoid the cleaning of the scanned drawing before import into Anime Studio. If you don't remove the white areas of the scanned images you can still "painting" them but instead of place the layers behind the image (transparent image with only outlines) you can use the multiply blend method to colourize them.

I hope this would help :)

Hi Chucky. Yes. I don't think I would attempt it again unless there was a multiple layer shape fill tool just for switch layers.

Cheers
