Where the heck are the new updates?
Oh, where to begin... Well, in short, the Pink Panda Studios changed states, upgraded
to Mac OS X, upgraded development software, and just had other things going on. But
the Pink Panda project was never axed and the webtoon animates on! Stay tuned for more
hype, crazy, panda mayhem!
To the fans: Thanks for the feedback! Keep the e-mails coming. As long as there are
viewers, there will be Pink Panda!!!
Who is the Pink Panda and what is this site all about?
The Pink Panda is a web-based cartoon series done exclusively in Macromedia
Flash. An episode is released each month, moving the story along in classic
serial fashion. Follow the adventures of the Pink Panda and all of his friends
by checking PinkPanda.com every month!
The first episode of the Pink Panda was my first Flash animation, so the quality
and range of effects naturally expands with each episode. I'm a huge fan of anime
and classic kung-fu movies. The Dragon Ball Z epic action cartoon series
has been a huge source of both influence and inspiration. There have been many
manga movies that have also offered vast amounts of inspiration - Akira, Ghost
in the Shell, Ninja Scroll, Fist of the North Star and Princess Mononoke
to name just a few. I would say that the Usagi Yojimbe comic series was also an
inspiration, if only to show that barnyard ninjas and woodland samurai can actually
work :)
Samurai Jack has been a recent source of inspiration for me. The
long action sequences and effective dialogue make it one of the best international
cartoons around. He rocks!
I hope you enjoy the Pink Panda series. I enjoy making the webtoons and will continue
to do so until some other idea comes along. Write me and let me know what you think.
Feedback from viewers is the stuff that keeps me going.
