Very well done! I hope this show eventually get picked by a network to be a complete series some day. This shorts are amazing!

[Unwanted Guest]

Good job! This is pretty impressive! I wonder how you managed to animate the characters without having to redraw the background on every frame as this seems to be fully animated on paper without possible use of layers.

yarharcannon responds:

Each frame was drawn on paper and then scanned in and put in to adobe animate where I compiled it all together. There I created layers for each separate asset of the animation (a layer for the characters, a layer for the backgrounds, vfx, etc) and applied blending modes to allow the lineart of each layer to be visible at all times.
TVPaint has many features that allows for putting traditional animations together but I don't have that and I used Adobe Animate instead which meant having to do things more manually since that software is solely made for digital work.
