I had the occasion to try it during Annecy, it is well done indeed.

Thank you for sharing the article from Cartoon Brew

Thank you for sharing and thank you Thierry for the kind words!

It was super nice to see this on Cartoon Brew! We released the app just a couple of weeks ago and we've got nice response. I might add here that we also made a TV Series of 10x5 minutes for pre-schoolers. TVPaint was part of the pipeline in many stages from design to storyboards, some backgrounds and animating too.

During the MIFA, we tried to negotiate in order to obtain a kakemono (big poster) of Gigglebugs, on the Finnish booth, unsuccessfully (now that we have big offices, we want to decorate our walls with posters of films and projects made with TVPaint )

I can't wait to play at Gigglebug with my niece since it's already working for me
Very well designed and fun app indeed!

[Thierry]

Can we expect an Android version of the application ? :p

[Elodie]

In fact, nobody there, at TVPaint, has an iPad or an iPhone (Android pawaaaa)

Here, iPod Touch (4th Generation) user is coming

I played "Gigglebug" free edition (sorry I have not use wi-fi access) and thought I would be felt more fun if I knew their TV series and more background story.

At the last scene, it will be more better that standardized thickness of abozzo drawing line between Gigglebug and his friends.
Thank you for your happiness and smile interactive animaion app, joonasjoonas

[Elodie]

and more background story

The Background story is included in the paying version, if I'm not wrong

I can't wait to see the TV series

I will click "buy" on iTS Japan if the app include full story version ; that means "full price edition".

The first video on our Gigglebug Behind the Scenes series is here ! There will be one episode each wednesday.

This was very enjoyable to watch, Benjamin. I like that you are doing this series of behind-the-scenes of projects made with TVPaint. It's fascinating to see the work flow of different studios and individuals using TVPaint and I think it is very good promotion of the software. Good work.
