Was it? Shoot! I thought because it was Titmouse it was Flash.
I know Flying Bark used Harmony for Monkie Kids, so I'd bet Rise was Harmony too.
Thanks for letting me know. I'll leave the post up since it's still awesome looking animation :)

I played this game Levers a ton of times. I don't ever remember how I found it. It was fun

This was another crazy thing, Science Saru shared a video with some animation done frame by frame in Animate from Ping Pong the Animation. No idea how or how often they used it, but it looked cool as heck.
I just love plugsuits.

The whole Newgrounds scene. Cartoons (and games!) on the internet, years before YouTube. I don't think it can be understated how much the Flash democratized animation creation and distribution.

And for something more recent the new Tales of the Teenage Ninja Turtles series looks so sick.

Motorcity came out when when I'd been animating in Harmony about for three or four years. It looked so dynamic and fresh. Jeremy Polgar's animation in particular did some really killer work, a good reminder of how much ass talented people could do in Animate.

Having Cartoon Network make a series in Flash by the creator of Powerpuff Girls felt like it legitimized the software. It wasn't the first Flash show, but it felt like the big leagues!
The art direction and writing were also killer.

The Jimmy Swift Band-Turnaround video is my favorite one from Copernicus. I was working low budget preschool show when this came out. I applied to Copernicus for the 4th time and I got hired!
I met my wife working at Copernicus a few years later. Thanks, Flash ;)

Copernicus's music videos, especially those directed by Brad Cayford, were another epiphany. Higher production values and more cinematic than anything I'd seen done Flash at that point.
I can't recall if I saw their Nelly Furtado video for Explode or the Spesh K one first

I saw this when I was in college for animation. 2D was "dying" as feature studios wound down feature production. The design and animation of this video were a breath of fresh air and made me more hopeful about the industry I was hoping to enter.
Seeing a lot of people dunking on Adobe Animate following the news of it's discontinuation. It wasn't perfect, but using it paid my bills for half my career. I'm going to share a few things made in Animate/Flash that were important to me as an animator.
TROGDOR!

Announcing the end of life for Adobe Animate. Thanks for bringing your ideas to life with Animate. Starting March 1, 2026, the app will no longer be available for purchase. Existing Animate customers may continue to use the app. Support will continue for enterprise customers for three years, through March 1, 2029. For all other customers, support will continue for one year, through March 1, 2027. In the future, check out Adobe After Effects for complex keyframe animations and Adobe Express for one-click animation effects that you can easily apply to photos, videos, text, shapes, and other design elements.
I AM FURIOUS.
Adobe Animate remains an industry standard for TV animation. Star Trek: Lower Decks was made in Animate. Haunted Hotel was made in Animate. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic was made in Animate.
And because you can't buy a permanent licence anymore, it'll just be gone.

The new lead designer coming from a different studio culture and Tim being absent trying to find a new publisher was such an unfortunate fluke of timing.
Not only a perfect denouement, it was the end of an era. Thirty years ago today, this strip was published.

I don't know that I've ever had a real plum pudding, but this video of Fanny Cradock making Christmas pudding is a holiday favorite of mine.

I made a quick and dirty light box to take a picture of something, but it ended up being too small for what I needed. Took some toy pictures instead. Snoopy, Koko the clown, and Lula from Blind Alley by @kumerish.bsky.social

Pencil drawings of a mountain, a dragon's head, and a woman in a silent film style bat demon costume.
More meeting/rendering drawings. Many LOTR lore video essays while animating. They're percolating through my brain and starting to seep out.
