Creative I did for an advertising on the net (portals).
It's a "diplomats are needed" call for the ministry of foreign affairs (Israel)

I like it!

(The guy is very expressive and the animation very retro -- exactly the kind of look I'd like to strive for).

Yeah, I have that book (along with about a bizillion others Chris has written -- the guy is the Steven King of cartoonists :>) and that's why your stuff jumped out at me.

I grew up in the 50's and early 60's so the retro look of cartoons really appeals to me. But I guess kids nowadays like it as well!

I started looking at your other stuff -- created with AS, right?

Very nice -- I don't understand the language but the animation tells the story and it's got a tremendous amount of life and style. It's the kind of thing I hope to be able to do in 2D (my background is all 3D). Thanks for sharing it.

Thanks mkelley! :lol:

Actually..ASP allow me to focus more and more on what I really love, 2d animation, instead of multimedia design :)
