Broom Wars
This is an animated short film called "Broom Wars". It's hand-drawn but there's audio. My animation is influenced by Disney animation, as well as non-Disney animated features.
The short centers on the cartoon version of Nate (me), who sweeps the floor with the broom - until Bruce Ebner a.k.a. Mr. Bruce wanted the broom, so both of them got in the struggle.
NOTE: Broom Wars is NOT a "Star Wars" spoof; it's a short cartoon that was given the title "Broom Wars" because of the broom brawl between me and Mr. Bruce, so don't complain about it.
ANOTHER NOTE: I'm sorry for the bad animation and drawings, but this video is still kind of cool.
TOOLS/EQUIPMENTS USED TO MAKE THIS SHORT CARTOON:
Pencil and paper
HP Deskjet F335 All-in-One scanner
Microsoft Paint (frame editing)
Adobe Photoshop 6 (frame editing and title cards)
Toon Boom Studio 3.5 (rendering and animation)
Adobe Premiere 6.0 (editing and titles)
and Windows Movie Maker.
WHERE I GOT THE SOUND EFFECTS FROM:

http://flashkit.com

And one sound effect is made by me.
"looks cool. You can use Toon Boom to trace over and color your characters. That will add a lot to the cartoon. You have a good sense of timing, squash, stretch and cinematography. Keep it up!"
