There will be more of these. At a minimum two more since two more are finished. Just felt like doing an homage to old school animation where the toon get messed with by the "evil" animator. I couldn't decide if I should name the individual pages. If I ever make more of these, I'll decide then.
This toon is named Lila. I really should change her outfit at some point. Maybe let her hair down. She's been seen with her legs hanging out of a car window among other places in the past.
I realized later I could have named her Annie. I could have named this The Animator Annie Matter. But, if I do make more of these, they might feature characters other than "Annie" so dodged a bullet there, right?
PAGE 1 – Introduction
Panel – various shots of Lila standing on a blank gray background.
Posing, legs apart, right hand on head
Looking at her hand to the right
Looking behind her to the left
Stepping forward waving
Tapping the “camera”
Arms up in a what’s happening pose
Lila: Hey!
Lila (bigger): Hey!
FX: tap tap
Animator: What?
Lila: Did you forget something?
PAGE 2 – Parts Removed
Top Panel – Sequence of images, no panel separations
Standing demurely
Lila: What am I floating in a gray void?
Lila: Where’s the set?
Animator: This is just a character study. Not a scene.
Checking her face in a makeup compact
Lila: Oh, can I get a makeover? I don’t even have makeup on.
Animator: You want me to move some sliders?
Lila: Yeah, wait. What?
Nose is missing
Lila: My nose! Where’s my nose?
Animator: I bet you’d sound funny if you could be heard.
Lila: Ha ha. Put it back! You can’t just take my nose away.
Animator: True. Why stop there?
She has no face.
Lila: Wh--?
Bottom Panel
Animator: ha ha ha ha ha….ha ha ha
Head and hands disappear. (Bracelet is falling.)
Legs gone, torso falling. Shoes empty on “floor”.
Just an upper torso is left, a basket swings in and scoops up remains of Lila.
