So much work, so little time. That is to say, I put a lot of work into this, yet it only lasts a couple of minutes.
If you're unfamiliar with the exploits of Spoony McSpoon (or even if you are) you can find his debut here: [link] I implore you to go and watch it, even if you've already seen it. It's very short and it offers a direct comparison to this one, my second ever Flash cartoon which of course is much better. So I figured out how to ramp up the graphical quality and learned some new techniques with the program (I think.) The voice I think could stand to be better, I'll be sure to actually write out a script next time instead of corpsing like an idiot. Also you'll notice he has no arms. This was never intentional, but I figured that the hands were was more important so I was going to fit the arms in later and it seems the animation method I had intended to use looked like garbage, so I used the backup plan, which also looked like garbage then I decided that badly animated arms would look much worse than no arms at all. Let us not forget the sterling work of So this time around I said to him: "You need to remix it." "Like this?" "No, more like this." "I can totally do that, but I'll substitute your suggested key change here for this awesome middle section. You'll know it when you hear it. Also I wanted to make a fancy preloader but the world does not wish to co-operate. In about twenty tutorials not one of them told me how to make JUST a loading bar, but always a bar with a percentage or a "bytes loaded" and I didn't want that. Unfortunately my lack of script knowledge meant I couldn't remove the parts I didn't need because I don't know what it all meant! Then I just stole the script from the last cartoon. And I think that's it. With lots of Spoony related media already in Flash, I can potentially make more a lot quicker now, but for the time being I have other cartoon ideas that need attention so enjoy Mr. McSpoon as he is for now. |

It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion,
It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed,
The hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning,
It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.
