Interactive Ricky Gervais production

A pretty good walkthrough for the making of the Ricky Gervais show. Shame that it doesn’t seem to work well in animation. I think part of the problem is the overall Flintstone’s style and use of Flash with stock expressions, etc. The over the top laugh they put on Ricky shown in the final animation part in the studio just doesn’t work. It would have been much better if the animation had taken the voices to another place. If I get chance I’ll do my own test for what I’d have done.
