The Maurizio Brothers & other animated shorts...

[HBCoffin]

Hello,

I'm new to the boards, joined just a while ago in order to address a bug issue, but while I'm here I figured I'd share some of my work.

Over the past few years I've been working on concepts and designs for a Mario Brothers parody entitled "The Maurizio Brothers." My first mini-episode was completed for a basic course in new media at the University of Texas at San Antonio. I'd like to share this, as well as a couple more episodes I completed last semester which I've yet to post so that I may tweak a few imperfections here and there.

I'm trying to go a more non-traditional route, as I know that a Mario Brothers parody isn't anything new or entirely original. The humor is in the details, and best understood if you're a fan of the franchise.

This first mini-episode entitled "Maurizio Finds a Job" was more of an exercise than anything. The animation was completed using Anime Studio Pro 5. Future episodes will be completed using Anime Studio Pro 7. Audio was recorded using FL Studio. I just recently switched from PC to Mac so I'm looking for a good program to use for audio recording/editing if anyone has any suggestions or recommendations.

Anyway, here's the link, let me know what you think:

Thanks ahead of time to anyone willing to give my work the time of day.

NOTE: If you find yourself lost, the latest episode, "Friday Fright Night," makes reference to another animated short, "Fawn of the Dead," also up for viewing.

Stay tuned for the final part(s) of "Friday Fright Night."

Enjoy!
