My little hamster

My 1-minute film for Les espoirs d'animation competition organized by kids TV channel Canal J. Check it out >>>> here!

It's in French and isn't subtitled, sorry. I'll try to settle it somehow but I hope the story is more or less clear even without the dialogues.

The film was made in a month in paper cut-out technique. The animation was done in 5 days.

When I was kid I dreamt to have a hamster but my parents were strictly against any animals at home. I envy this little girl, really.

Some more making of photos can be found here.

A while ago I made little cut-out animation for the first Russian flipbook festival — Animabook. And  to my big surprise it won the first prize! So it'll be published for real, on paper! (500 copies!)


Here's the animation:



And here's the main character on stage:

In august I made little animation for JibJab birthday wishes. I got the animatic and my job was to design the character and background and animate it.

First I thought about Flash animation but finally I came up to cut-out animation in After Effects. To be honest, it was the first time when I did character animation in AE and while making it I learned a lot!

Some pictures of the process.
