This was an animation I did with my buddies back in 2000-2001? It's been such a long time ago, I forgot what year or which semester. Anyways, a few of my friends and I took advantage of a surprise course that year, Japanese Society through Anime and Manga (I think that's the title?) taught by a Japanese professor specializing in Asian Anthropology. It was only natural for all of us to enroll since I was the founder of our Anime Club at Bowdoin (BAS) and all of my friends were members and/or officers. Since we were representing the club, we had to out-do everyone and not just hand in an essay as our final project. Some groups created mangas, but ours was the only one to do an Anime Short created in Flash. The result is the video below. It took a lot of hard work, but we had a lot of fun. I was the director, script writer, character illustrator and animator and I even did a few voice overs. Please enjoy!
