(no audio)

It is obviously quick and dirty and done in one afternoon using paintbrush + a storyboard program (that's how I get the sweet zoom).

To be honest, I found the process liberating and even fun.  I now know exactly how many sets I need.  I know roughly how long the flick will be (~1:45) and I can speed my animation by shooting all the same set together rather than in sequence as per the script.

A storyboard is a priceless document.  I suggest you do one, no matter how crude - no matter your toolset.  They're awesome and not that difficult to do.
