Animated commercials for Zwitsal made with TVPaint

This commercial for Dutch television was animated (by me) with TVPaint. Three more in the same style are on the way. I'll post those when they are released.
The packshot (with the photographs of the bottles) was composited in another program. And the last bit, the babies body (bending forward), was done in Moho, I believe.

The packshot was done by another person (the post production team at Comic House) and they did the bit with the baby's body at the last moment because I had to move on quickly to the next three commercials for the same company.

Nothing super special or very artistic. Just a TV commercial properly done, I hope.

Good work ! I would like to see the other three when you are able to post .

That's funny you mentioned the last shot of the baby's body was done with Moho ---

I clicked through and watched the ad first before I read your entire post carefully. When the last shot came on I thought : "hmmmm... that part looks like Flash" ,
so I was only a little bit wrong. Actually for vector work I prefer Moho/Anime Studio over Flash.

Thanks.
I've never worked with Moho. I've heard good stories about it but it never made me want to try it out. Do you like it ?

Like it! The style is very nice and elegant. The thick outlines remind me of good TV animation from the past, like some of the stuff Amid Amidi dug up for his book "Cartoon Modern".

Moho, called Anime Studio for some time now, is indeed a nifty little tool. I wouldn't try to do a whole production solely with it, because then I'd be stuck with it's puppet-handling approach. Right now I try to get a job where all I know is that they want vector, for unknown reasons.

Thanks Elodie and Tiger.

The design is based on the logo and color scheme of Zwitsal.

I don't know if they sell this brand outside of The Netherlands.

That's the main reason why I haven't tried it out yet. I've seen some good stuff that was made with it, though...

Thanks Asaf.

There's another one online and a 'tag-on'.
On both the animation of the little fella is TVP. The product was done with another software (After Effects, I think)
