Mister Smile HD

immaculate. Its so frustrating how animators can make such creatively unique, timeless and effective artworks and they'll just go under society's radar. So genius and underrated.

[@bootsncatslabel]

I laughed so hard with "flooovde" my parents came and asked me if everything was ok. This animation is absolutely brilliant!

[@nixonbubble]

The smile man growing the face to stamp the autograph book but then signing it instead is so great

[@PumpkinPails]

Squirrel and old man playing 'where's my teeth' is too damn cute.

[@vinnx4]

How haven't i came across your animation work yet these are amazing. I was bound to enjoy your minimalist whacko story telling ans characters, we are square nosed brethren after all hehe

[@andycahill]

I remember finding the negative of this film on a shelf in the RISD auditorium in 2007 and shipping it back to you in Bed Stuy. I just thought of it again after all these years and looked it up- happy to see there's such a clean high def transfer of it online. Looks great. Still funny.

[@frankrause]

Thanks for sending me the negatives, Andy!

[@Eva--Valentina]

AAAAAHHSHHH that is so incredibly awesome, I need to show your work to all my animation friends

[@SplitMutton]

This reminds me a lot of Richard Condie's cartoons. It is simple and strange but equally endearing. This is very fun!

[@jelIyfishie]

i'm really enjoying seeing all of these animated cartoons you guys made Fran Krause, i hope to see more (just wished I could've found this sooner)

[@ncross]

still one of my favorites films!

[@OGNeosophis]

[@Xx3nxX]

Flooovde!!!

[@dongliker]

Very few 8minute long videos this obscure are interesting enough to hold my attention but this is very compelling work

[@chubbyblackboi]

Wow that love /Food explination was so worth the while

[@smooooth_]

[@infinitefun527]

[@Lumie_Moth]

[@Monodi91]

[@Hale-ir8ns]

[@patrickgh3]

Love it! So sincerely cute and happy!

[@sox2010]

possibly the, in the best way possible, weirdest animation i have ever watched

[@xarv368]

If could put subtitles on (CC).

[@aaron6290]

this is awomrsoe

[@anomaletix]

i am dying to know about the credits song's origin

[@frankrause]

That's just a four-track song I made with a keyboard I got at Salvation Army and some drums. I forget where I found the drums. There's a lot of Optigan in this cartoon as well - also a nice find at the thrift store.

[@anomaletix]

i’ll have to check out my local thrift shop then! finding whole instruments like that sounds semi-rare but i’ll have to see

[@boomballing3598]

Did you use a Yamaha SHS-10 to make that music ?

[@frankrause]

No, I think it was an Optigan maybe an SK-1 at the end?

[@prankedmama]

[@j.p.4991]

A question: why was that animation so important and liked?, why does it appear in IMDb?

[@xarv368]

Para los que no saben ingles. El pájaro dice que amor y comida es lo que las personas necesitan para vivir. Será por eso que en USA están tan gordos XD.
