Great short, western cartoons are always fun and I felt this had almost like Adventure Time vibes by way of Dr. Seuss. Congrats on getting someone as big as Quinton for your project!

Great work, reminds me a lot of the Alex G. video for Southern Sky.
Music reminds me a lot of Jens Lekman. Will have to check out more of Andy's stuff.
The ending is *chef's kiss*
As someone who's worked in a record store, I can safely say this is 100% accurate. It's kind of sad that this is the "last day" at this store, but I do hope you do more with these characters in the future.
The quick chomp is what sells it. This deserves more love!

THEY FORGOT THAT I'M HIM
First of all, whatever VHS effect you used is immaculate, I'd love to know what it was for future reference. Not only did you capture the look of those old anime tapes, but you completely nailed the tone of the studio logos and intros. Really amazing stuff. I think my only qualm was the feathering on the computer was a bit rough. I think you were going for a warm glow, but it looks more like the image is blending into the monitor itself. I think of you were able to touch that up, that would make the experience more immersive. Otherwise, this is a really cute short!
The Scott at the end is a bit unnerving. I legitimately think another pass on him could do wonders, unless that's what you were going for. Otherwise this goes HARD. The section with the 2D Kim panels is probably some of the best use of colors I've seen in a while.
The "SALEM" namedrop is one of Richard's best improv moments.
Massive Liquid Television vibes here. Wonderful, simple short. Love all the dynamic camera shots you were able to squeeze in for something that was under a minute long.
