Simple Gifts - My Christmas

Animation is one way to achieve character, design is another.

In this segment from "Simple Gifts" Chas. B. Slackman illustrates the Christmas entry from 11 year old Teddy Roosevelt's diary.

There's no animation. Just of couple of dissolves here and there. But plenty of character provided by the artwork which is a clever match and foil to energetic script from a child who has it all.
