Flavio Premiere

Last week I was up at my good friend and fellow Zaptooner, Mike Milo's house for the world premiere of Mike's cartoon, Flavio. The house was packed- I'm not sure how many family, friends and co-workers of Mike's showed up, but there must have been 30 or more people on hand for the main event. We all gathered around Mike's brand new high-def TV and watched the cartoon from a screening DVD fresh from Viacom.

Standing room only as the crowd enjoys the world premiere screening of Flavio!

I have to say, I loved the classic look and feel to the cartoon. Have a sneaky-peek at it yourself, here, on the Frederator site. Go on, take a look. Then come back and finish reading this post.

Back? Okay... so what did you think? Pretty cool, huh?

Specifically, I like the look of the backgrounds, the character design, and the little details like the cartoony sound effect pop ups and funny sight gags. I also love that it's an all animal world, something I've always thought was more interesting than just human characters.

Flavio will eventually be on the Nickelodeon channel, on the show "Random Cartoons", but of course keep your fingers crossed that it'll be picked for a series. Mike did an awesome job on this cartoon!
