Description
[link]M-kay, Deviantart doesn't wanna let me upload .swf files even though it says to, so I'm providing a link to Youtube.

Click full-screen, it's more impressive that way.
Anyway, this is what I spent about a week and a half on at MCAD this summer. I spent about 12 hours a day on it. 12. Frickin. Hours. x.x But it was fun, cause I hung out with mah buddies and watched animated movies while we worked.
About the movie:
These are two of my charries, Riley the golden retriever and Maddy the retriever/malamute mix. Riley's the typical retriever: happy-go-lucky, loyal, friendly... yeah, you get it. He's also fiercely protective of Maddy. Maddy's shy and quiet, and kinda emo. =/ But she loosens up as the story goes on. They're supposed to have more markings than that, but halfway through coloring it I figured out that I wouldn't make the deadline if I colored them properly. ;_; So just pretend they look all spiffy and cool.
They're from a story I have in my head, but can't put on paper yet cause there are too many plotholes.
Oh, and you get a cookie if you know where the music's from. =3
Animated in Flash, backgrounds made in Photoshop, Put together in AfterEffects.

Sorry to be a bother, Spirit. But what is the name of the first Okami track you used for this animation.
I was hoping to find the download of it, but I probably need a name of it. XD;

nooby-banana In reply to DoomBiskit [2007-09-16 15:03:12 +0000 UTC]
The track in the beginning scene is called "Oki the Hero" and the one for the rest (except for the flashback) is "Reset ~ Thank You Version"
I got them from [link]

Thanks. ^__^ But first I gotta get into an art college. *prays portfolio is good enough*
Are you going to that Portfolio Day thing at MCAD in November? I went last year and everyone I talked to was all "MORE OBSERVATION DRAWINGS! *crack whip*" So I gotta buckle down and draw some stuff from life. x_x
Bleh. I'd much rather draw cartoons.

Yes. Though I've decided that the next time I do a still life with fruits in it...I'm going to mangle them with knives before I draw them. So...it...wont...be.......boring? Yeahthat'sit. xD;;;

nooby-banana In reply to llllucid [2007-09-17 00:05:09 +0000 UTC]
lol, mangle. xD Yeah, that'd make it a bit less... boring. I think instead of fruits I'll stockpile a few of my stuffed animals and draw those. =3
