After being inspired by a few of Drtooth's posts regarding the pervasive style of animation on television that is Adobe Flash, I thought about creating a thread dedicated to it. I also think that Flash can look good if done right, even fairly close to traditional/cel animation.
Best uses:
- Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends (Tooth pointed out many times before how fluid it looked compared to other shows)
- Jacob Two-Two (Has a nice sketchbook/colored pencil style to it that I enjoy)
- The Looney Tunes Show (Very fluid once again, like Foster's, and sometimes resembles traditional animation)
Worst uses:
- Caillou (When it made the switch over to Flash later on, you can really tell by how awkward and Internet-like people tended to move)
- Ctrl-Alt-Del: The Animated Series (Totally flat and lifeless, like the webcomic itself. So many things lack shading and detail. I sadly watched the entire series on YouTube, which was annotated by many other users who point out every single flaw in the animation and made the whole thing more bearable to watch)
