The Simpsons opening in pixel art!

Genius! One of my first professional jobs was animating pixels for a company called Sierra Online working on old school Point and Click games such as Leisure Suit Larry, Space Quest and King’s Quest as well as Keeping up with Jones and it was very hard to do so I take my hats off to these fellas!

Also check out Pat and Ivan as they talk a bit about the ‘making of’ the video’ below.

 

2D Wednesday- “The Casebook of Nips & Porkington” (2015) by Melody Wang

Today’s 2D Wednesday is a delightful little piece by 4th year Sheridan animation student Melody Wang done primarily in Toonboom Harmony and Photoshop about two anthropomorphic cops chasing a stolen egg though a very clever bit of newspaper landscape.

I ask you… WHEN WILL SOMEONE MAKE A 2D  FEATURE AGAIN!?!?!?
