I played with some animated stick figure styles last year. I had seen enough stick styles the past few years that I wanted to try my hand at it. I liked a few I had seen before such as Cyanide and Happyness, Order of the Stick, a few others and some south park. XD

What I ended up doing with it, that I liked the most, is laying the character's limbs down in 2 different stick layers, using anime studio and just doubling the limbs in the bone. I originally did this to try and keep the arms and legs looking straight and stick like, when it's animated but what ended up happening, alot of the time, is the 'double-layered-stick-limbs' would get a slight flex from both sides..I thought it kinda gave the illusion of a stick figures muscle flexing somewhat naturally.

Originally, I started doing them, so I could also focus more on the facial expressions and body language, while keeping it quick and refreshing. I thought it could also keep me from getting too burned out while writing, editing and switching to sound. Just thought it would be nice to have a cool original animation, that could be cranked out quickly in weekly webisodes, should I feel like doing so.

I went with a sci-fi theme, about a fast food resturaunt on a neglected moonbase. I'm going to shred the scripts and synopses and rewrite them, because I'm not happy with what I did the first draft. This may take a while but I'm usually never in a rush..

fun stuff.
