Happy: A Film by Michael Lewicki

I got a kick out of Happy, an animated film which was created by Michael Lewicki as part of a course on character animation at the Vancouver Film School. I tracked down Michael on Facebook and asked him what inspired him to make his film:

“There really was no inspiration for the film other than just getting a job. I went to VFS to make a film for a demo tape to work as an animator and then it just blew up on YouTube. When thinking of the idea I wanted to keep it clean and simple with classic jokes…like the ones I grew up with (Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show, Ren and Stimpy, Spongebob, etc…) I just wanted to make something that everyone can enjoy no matter what age.”
