An accounting firm has asked me if I want to produce a few sales animations for them, using the GoAnimate platform. (Clod, this could lead to a little bit of voiceover work for you. Not much though, they only want a few short vids.) Do you guys think this is too dirty to give them as a quick demo?

I need a better vocal recording setup, that's for sure.
Accounting firms are pretty conservative. Unless you've been given the distinct impression that this is some sort of hip young startup kind of place, I wouldn't think they'd appreciate the humor. Hell, it probably violates sexual harassment policies just to let the sales people watch it.
I'd personally go with more of a "typical" sales video like the kind they'll be asking you to make. It will be boring, but corporate types eat that shit up.
The first level person likes it, sent it to the second level, this may be happening, cross yer fingers
Very cool. Animations are hot now. Hope it works out for you.

Featuring our own Clodfobble, (but Clod I haven't been able to re-do the second voice yet).
excellent~!
though, I must confess I do like the first one better than the second one.
I hope you get the gig!
I got the gig, for at least one video - I think they have 3-4 more they want to do, maybe more, but they've hired me to do the first one, which will be a longer form of the last demo.
It's not great money but... it's half audio work, and that is the most fun I will have professionally, in a long time. Plus, who knows -- if these go well maybe I will shop myself out to do more of this kind of thing.
OMG... you'd sell out? Prostitute yourself to the world of crass commercialism? Slave for the man in exchange for a few shekels?
Cool. :thumb:
I have promised to only use my powers for good, and never for evil. These are accountants... they only measure evil.
If Oscar uses them, they must be good.
Waiting to hear back if this is good enough. It's not good enough for me, I would like to do something much stronger but the platform is really limiting.

It's saying "this video is private."
I wish I had another 20 hours of time to work on it.
Trees that produce condoms, much fun.
