I created this quick animation for the Toronto Animated Image Society.
The parameters of the short were that it had to be :10 seconds in length, and the subject matter was monsters.
I tried to come up with an idea, but I just didn't have the time to create the animation and still make the deadline. ( I did this in an afternoon).
So, I recycled a gag that I did for Dragon Magazine, and punched it up.
This version is actually :30 seconds long. I think this length works better with the storytelling and pacing, without feeling padded.
Click on the Viking ship, and enjoy!
