Hey people, I just figured I'd share this little image I made for RUDOLF (that sick short I wrote for VOAT, which you can read here, and consequently lose your faith in humanity: http://www.karmacritic.com/node/2450 [1] ) . I'm playing with a really cool software called Toon Boom Studio 4, and it took me all of three hours to kinda learn the basics, which is all I need to create Rudolf. I got all my 3d models and screenshots, and all of the audio, voices, etc... its just a matter of animation now, I hope. Lets see.

Here's a little demo of what this software can do. I'm cautiously optimistic :)

P.S. Its likely the finished product wont look at all like this image... I'm limited by "cutout style" animation to never change too much the angle of my characters, but we'll see what can I get away with. We'll see :)

P.S.2. Credit where Credit is Due: thanks to Eric for telling me about this software in the first place!
