Out of the BlueE

So, I finally got around to learning Flash, but I couldn't do it without some form of online course. This is my submission for the final assignment of that course, taken at Gotland University, Sweden, where I also study Computer Graphics and Animation.

I am happy with the result, as it matches my vision. However, the animation could've been better, but I cut myself some slack, since it *is* my very first animated short, Flash or otherwise.

I went for a monochrome colorscheme to relate to air and water, and to capture a kind of childish, innocent or dreamlike quality, which goes well with the style that is sort-of intentionally crudely drawn.

Anyway, hope you like it! :)
