Pato

[@hanglider]

when i was 5 a drunk guy walked in to my grandmothers appartment. He saw me and just said hi looking compleatly megastoned and then walked right past my grandma to the livingroom where he fell asleep on the couch. I thought this was someone my grandma knew so i didn't really care. 15 minutes later my grandma called me for dinner and at the table i asked her who the guy that came in was. She thought i was just speaking nonsense which i noticed and said No, for real, there's a guy in your couch. So we walked to the livingroom and she said oh god, you where right. He woke up still drunk and when he saw us he said: Who made food? It smells delicious. Granny gave him some hungoverpills and kicked him out hahaha poor guy... This animation made me remember it :)

There is just something so emotionally raw about all the animations you create. The fact that you can convey so much without a single word spoken says an incredible amount about your skill as an animator. Keep it up!

She looks too fucking old to be a mom.

ThomasSantiagoソーセージ that made no sense

[@alecLogan]

@@sunsetshadows9482 I think that one was implying she was more the girl's grandma than mother, since people tend towards having their kids a while before they start looking quite that old. I could be wrong though.

This short animation has more expression and emotion in character design than ANY blockbuster animation made today! I have a few questions: 1. How long did this take 2. I assume from the style of vector drawings, its Flash, and the background is Photoshop, correct? 3. With your other animations, how were they done? 4. What are your plans in KZbin, Career, etc. future? You ARE defiantly going to make it someday!

[@HueNost]

Funny you mention blockbuster animation, because Tom's a writer for "We Bare Bears".

This is so deep, man. The child wants to entertain her mother by bringing her duckies which symbolizes freedom or perhaps even a happy marriage. So she sacrificed her share of food, which is like a part of her livelihood(daily bread) to find a good man for her mother. But her plan backfired, she lured in an evil bear which is a metaphor of man with evil intention. The bear then raped her off screen, hence the stronger moaning. The child wanted to tell her mother but it would ruin her original intention of encouraging her mother that there are better men out there, so she faked a smile and hid the truth instead. Her mother still found out later. She met man who violated her child. The man then raped her child once more before he escaped. The mother was so traumatized, she kept her pose to exert her dominance as a woman, she has now embrace feminism. But in the end, the child did find a better man(the duck) for her, which is ironic because of the process. *Nah, I just wanted to type bunch of bullshit.*
