DS: Tell me about the film’s animation style? How did you produce the film?
ML: The film was done with traditional hand drawn animation. There wasn’t any CG involved. Some of the animators were more comfortable with animating on paper. In the case of me and one of my lead animators, Jennifer Hager, who is a 3D animator at Disney, we animated the majority of our shots on a program called TVPaint straight into the computer. That saved us a lot of time because you don’t have to do scanning or touch ups. We composited the film in After Effects and edited in Adobe Premiere.

Erick Oh's "How To Eat Your Apple" is finally posted online (was online at one time , then was down while it toured the film festivals, now he has posted it again on his Vimeo page) .
Here is a nice "making of" one of our animation students (HFF Potsdam, Germany) made for a commercial spot. You can see very good in which part she used TVPaint. The spot was part of a programme, where students will learn, how to handle commercials, this time in cooperation with United Parcel Service.
Animated in part with TVPaint they say. One of the few I've seen in portrait (iPhone?) format (taller than it is wide). Some of the painting is beautiful. (via CartoonBrew)

these European animation schools never cease to amaze me and this is probably one of the more delightful ones I have had a chance to see in a long time. The acting and characterizations of the father and son pair is never overacted, as can be the pitfall of so many similar stories these days.
If I do have a gripe, it is with the ending, which just proves how hard they are to come up with for all of us. I write these notes a couple of hours after viewing the film and already don't remember more about the ending except that I felt it was weak.
But everything else preceding it was just superb; the scenery and how it never clashed with the action, the color palette and the acting -- all done in such a mature style (oh, the music I didn't care for that much, but nothing drastic -- just didn't match the originality of the imagery). Thanks, Sven.
EDIT: To the format: I am thrilled to see some breaking away from the classical film/TV formats, if for no other reason than to just prove that the Internet proves to be THEE venue of personal preferences and originality. If it's an up and down story -- let the format be up and down! How fitting.
