Save a cartoon to your computer.
I directed a cartoon against the Bush Administration: UNCLE SAM ON THE RIVER.

To play it, click here.

To save it to your computer, right-click here.

To play the saved copy, I recommend getting a free Swiff player, starting the Swiff player, and then using it to open the cartoon file where you saved it.

9. excellent effort!! glad to k&r ...
great job, Eric ... very powerful!!

when Uncle Sam cut his hand, i thought the next headline would be about Iraq and have him drip a few drops of bright red blood on the nice white newspaper ... just a thought ...

10. That is a way I could have gone with it, but...
Edited on Wed Jul-19-06 10:00 PM by Eric J in MN
...I decided not to directly address the war, because I was trying to reach both opponents and supporters of the Iraq War in this video.

I wanted to focus on civil liberties in this video.

14. I like it
The animation was well done.

Can I offer a small amount of constructive criticism?

It felt like it ran long a few times. Maybe an editor could help speed it up some. I know that all directors have trouble deciding what to cut though.

Good job.

17. Yes, I know what you mean in your criticism
..that some scenes are too long.

But when I started working on the project, I had in mind a cartoon I had seen on "Current TV" which I consider too short, "Oil Underneath:"
http://www.current.tv/studio/media/878130

...and I decided that if I err, I'd rather do it in the too long direction.
