THE HEAD is done! // Hand-drawn animated short

2010-03-03T21:38:00.000-08:00

TheHead / hand-drawn animated short from parquerama on Vimeo.

After 4 months of hard work, thinking how this crazy story could get the end, drawing and drawing a little every day, coloring and adjusting a LOT of details, Dante and I finally pressed the Render button to make our first full hand-drawn animated short.
Hope you enjoy watching this piece as we enjoyed to do it. We wanted to get a target: just to make a cartoon old-school style.
Special mention to Gary (Ariel Gandolfo), who made this great Sound Design. It was a very hard and wonderful challenge for us.
Hope to get strenght to make the second short soon!

And thanks people for visit the clip thousands of times just the first week. :)
