When I was a kid, I used to watch Flash Gordon on (black & white!) TV. One episode featured a city in the sky, supported by energy rays. These rays were generated by giant coal furnaces (ha ha!), with an enslaved proletariat shovelling coal day and night to keep the city suspended in mid air. They just don't write them like that any more.
ANYWAY, the question I asked, even as a kid, was "How do they get all that coal up there?" And the question I ask here is "If these guys can design a harness for a backpack, why can't they design a harness for a hang-glider?". Nice animation though!

Excellent work as always. I especially like the way you animated the bit with him pulling stuff out of his bag. Impressive!

That was really entertaining, please tell me that was done in Anime Studio? ASP can handle point motion frame by frame and make it look so so nice.

Joofville, I'm a fan of your work. In your hang glider video your character pauses to catch his breath. In the "Kepler ipad" video a complex story is told without dialogue. "A Christmas Message" is a brilliant visual gag.
Your work reveals high intelligence. It also causes me to ask why you don't have more views. I don't have a lot of views on my YouTube channel either so I don't know the answer but I am learning what I can about keyword search. Apparently, raw talent isn't enough so I see a need for all of us to learn what we can about Search Engine Optimization.

That was really excellent! What software did you use? I have not tried to do frame by frame animation in AS but I understand that it is, in fact, quite possible.
