things done well | 2d animation ::
Monday, May 18th, 2009:: I recently re-discovered the work of Hutoo (北京互象动画, blog), a Beijing-based company that, among other things, creates superb 2D animations. Hutoo’s cartoons are humorous, full of post-1980 China nostalgia, and horrifically violent at every turn in the trials and tribulations of their bloody-nosed main character Kuang Kuang (哐哐). If you haven’t had a chance to enjoy any of Hutoo’s work before, I’ve shared an episode below titled Bombing Schools (炸学校, probably better translated as School Bombing). It’s hard not to love. Enjoy. // AjS
