Happy Holidays!
For the second time in my animation career, I made a more traditional comedy animation. Originally, I wrote it for sarcastic jam, but couldn't complete it in time. Since it was Christmas themed anyway, I figured I'd spend a little more time on it than I would have and submit it just in time for the holidays. Plus I'm trying to generate content a little more consistency to re-establish an internet presence. I've been gone for quite a while.
Here it is, nice and embedded so you don't have to go anywhere. Watch it in the highest quality possible if you want to spot the Easter Eggs I threw in there.
Props to Saminat for doing both voices in this one. It was actually really fun to work with him. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit disappointed that it didn't get front-paged. And I don't wanrt to sound pompous by thinking that it automatically SHOULD end up there. It's not like I'm bitter or anything. I've been inactive for a long time and this type of toon is most certainly not my MO. It also might ruin Christmas for some youngin who happens to stumble upon it (although I can think of far worse for him to stumble upon on this site). I just created it thinking it was my most "Newground-ish" short and tried to do it in the style of all the comically inappropriate toons on this site that I grew up loving. So in a personal sense, I'm still glad I made it because it was an interesting experiment stepping out of my bubble. Hopefully those who watch it will enjoy it just the same.
That's all for now. Happy Holidays!
