Resident Dragon: Toxic Eviction | Motion Comic (Belated entry)

AnimationLife Blog: www.animationandvideo.com
(Resources, Reviews, Tips and Tricks for Independent, Semi Professional, and Hobby Animators).
This is my belated entry for Reallusion's Mini Event to create a Motion Comic based upon the theme of "Everything was normal until someone spilled the container..." and using Declan Walsh's (DexArt) five props:
1. Toxic Spill Barrel, 2. Electric Arc, 3. Portal, 4. Appear, 5. Newspaper Spin.
I wouldn't say it quite works as a motion comic but it also isn't quite an animated short. The story is loosely based on episode one of my Resident Dragon Series in which Red (the dragon) is evicted from his cave located on vacant land, earmarked for a new freeway. I then kind of made things up as I animated to work the five props in... and ended up with this.

"Eviction notice!" What a powerful line...

[@animlife]

Thanks. I guess it was maybe unexpected?

[@Suburbangeek]

Loved it! There was a lot going on. The highlight for me was Z-axis speech bubbles.

[@animlife]

Thanks. Interesting what people pick out as their highlights. I would never have thought z-axis speech bubbles were particularly noteworthy.
