Hi everyone!

My first 100% Anime Studio project is live, you can watch it here:

It's a special commission for Channel 4's new animation site, 4mations, a new broadband channel which gives animators a chance to make and showcase animation!

I struggled a bit with the setup, but once we got going Anime Studio was really fantastic for the job. Hope you like it, let me know what you think!

well done sproutling, congrats on a well put together piece.
Great economy of design.
The layout and timing were especially good, can't wait to see more.

Nice one, I've bookmarked the site as it looks like it's going to be a great series.

Cool! I hope all the forum animators start uploading stuff on 4mations! It's a really good idea for showcasing animation and they have monthly cash prices and other neat stuff. Of course I'm biased but I really hope it takes off!

Huh. Never heard of 4mations before. Nice site.

This was a really nice short done in a cute, simplistic style. I'm always amazed at how much better Anime Studio looks than Flash, just because it's rendered.

The writing and sound were great. I loved the understated delivery. The bit about the gifts was a particularly nice gem.

All things considered, great job. Despite the simplistic art style, you exercise great fundamentals and the result is a very tight, classy production.

Keep up the good work.

Can't wait to see more.
