Animated Analysis

A Web Video review-series featuring Stephan, a Texan animator and reviewer, and Nootrac, a cartoon circle drawn by the former who came to life one day. We're not allowed to know how. As you can tell from the title, they review animated films and series, both with their own critiques. There is a major plot growing behind the scenes, however...

Can be found here, and also on Geekvision.

This series contains examples of:
