Hi, I want to share with you the last project I worked on. It's a spot for an important latin american music festival.
The spot was designed and developed by http://www.fluorfilms.com and I was in charge of the animation of several characters and elements.
I participated on the 2d elaboration using AS 8.1, but the final product involves a mix of animated 2d and 3d material.
It's highly inspired on The Yellow Submarine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GPdwLNWmbGI

Fantastic fluid work, I can really see that yellow submarine inspired your work, and I also think the music remains of "Eleanor Rigby", right?
Congratulations to a beautiful colored and lively animated piece of work!!
What a riot! Wonderfully exuberant, and kitschy too. I think I counted all 16.7 million colours of the 24bit palette there. Have you posted your animated characters by themselves? It would be great to see them in their own right.
Thank you all.
I made some animated gif to show you some characters which I animated in AS8. I tried to make the gif files as light as possible, so don't expect good quality

Absolutely superb! I LOVE them. It's great to be able to appreciate the animations by themselves; there's so much to look at in the finished piece, it would take dozens of viewings to see it all.
Really worth a second look. One thing to mention: if you watch them separately, you could easily spot "mistakes" or imperfections - but they don't matter at all in the finished piece.
Examples:
- the star/singer with that wonderfully flowing green hair: her dress shows a "mistake" with a self-overlapping curve, but it fits the style. The same happens with one leg of the trumpet player.
- all those amoeba-like drops sometimes have visible corners - but nobody notices.
- the oddly shaped leg of the guitar player - again this just fits the style.
I guess all these flowing undulating lines are done competely with point animation?
The GIFs give me an idea: this dithering could be used as a special styling effect for a whole project.
