"Larry's Last Ride" -- Now Showing at Goofy Graffix

Presenting my latest animated short, featuring a minute and a half of hand-drawn intergalactic stupidity...

All the individual keyframes were penciled, inked with Staedtler markers on tracing paper, scanned, then colored in Painter. I used POV-Ray to sequence & composite all the painted layers, and Quicktime to create the final animation. The background starfield is the only non-hand-drawn component -- a bunch of POV-Ray-generated cylinders zooming past the camera.

Comments welcome! :)

Poor Larry.

Hi Dan,

Poor Larry. I'll be sure to not hitch a ride with drooling aliens ever again. We like that you integrate some traditional Animation techniques with digital,great job! It's a funny short.

Haha, that was great. I love your character designs, Goofy. You also have a good way of building character personalities. Great job. I just smiled more and more every second. :)

Thanks for the compliments, guys -- I do appreciate it :)
