The Hedgehog in the Fog

This is weird. It feels like paper cut animation but there is so much detail. I like the look of it but am not sure what to make of it.

The Mind's Eye

This was a bit odd but I liked the way it showed many different uses of 3D animation, and it is a nice comparison to modern 3D. It’s funny how the characters are so stiff.

The Curious Adventures of Mr. Wonderbird

This was interesting with its high detail backgrounds with multicolored but comparatively simple characters. Also the animators put a lot of work into none of the characters sitting still for too long in any scene, they always seemed to be moving in some way.

Abandoned Little Cat Tora

Even in this early example of Anime you can see the drawing style that will become its trademark. There is a noticable jerkiness tuition the cats movement which is a wired combo with the almost lifelike actions.

Paddington

The idea of a talking bear being adopted into a family was a great idea for a series. I love the sketched style and the use of a puppet for the main character with cut outs for everything else provided an interesting colaberation and dimension.

Gerald McBoing-Boing

I thought this was an odd story much like Seuss books. It is a Great example of limited animation but I don’t love the way the backgrounds and character skin all was the same color and the walls and floor had no definition.
