LOL Animation - Sketchy Blues - Bird Box Studio


Recently, YouTube has been suggesting 2D animated films to me from Bird Box Studios — and I'm falling in love with what they do.

In fact, their work is inspiring me to re-think my own labored approach to making animations.

Hint:  I've tended to think more in the lines of highly polished Pixar and Disney offerings — rather than the uncomplicated Bird Box approach:

  • First, their video/animations are very short — often clocking in at under a minute or two at the most (at least every one I've seen so far).
  • Second, their characters and backgrounds are stylized and simple — but have a certain charm.
  • Lastly, their videos have relatable story-lines with very funny twists woven into them.

Screen Capture From Sketchy Blues - Bird Box Studio

Their video, Sketchy Blues (attached below), was uploaded in 2010 and rockets by in well under a minute — and ends with a big laugh (at least for me)

Please keep in mind — no cartoon characters were harmed in the making of this short film.

😁

Enjoy!



Thanks for stopping by.

See you again soon.......
