    Agreed, I liked it a lot, both the illustrations and the animation.

    Care to tell more about how it was made? Is it mostly hand painted and then brought in in pieces into AE where it was animated? I would love to make something in a similar style sometime.

    oh yeah, like danny said, the music cuts out in the end...

    Thanks! You're right, I painted all the layers and what i couldnt scan, i photographed. Cleaned everything up in photoshop and brought into after effects for animating. It's a shame the audio cuts out at the end. But i dont really feel like re-uploading. I already have it posted on youtube. If you want to see it with complete audio you can find it at this link

    Wow! Great animation!

    I love the visual aesthetic and everything moves so smoothly!

    It also has a real handmade feel to it :)
    The painted scans/photos really paid off!

    Love the style of this piece. Something I'm trying to go for in my work also, but really haven't gotten there yet.

    wow! this piece is really special! :]
    can i ask how long did a project like this took u to make?
  • Charles Huettner 1 year ago
    I guess about a month and a half working on it in my spare time. I'm a little lazy so a normal person could have done it quicker I think.

    Love it! How did you get the 'blurry' outlines?
  • Charles Huettner 1 year ago
    Thanks, I did it in after effects. First i took the finished avi and doubled it. i took the top layer and made it blurry. then i went into the top layers blending options and selected 'overlay' doing that makes it a little too saturated so you might have to adjust the top layers contrast, saturation, or whatever.
