A Chinese Flash-animated short called ‘Deesha.’ The character models and approach to animation isn’t too far off from ‘South Park.’

There’s already been several posts here on CHF about the work of the Chinese studio Its Cartoon. Here we see many types of animals competing for the love one woman. And in the end, a frog punches her in the face. Wha?
You might have seen this series, as it’s been around for a few years, but regardless, check out this 5 minute Flash-animated episode from China:
You know the old saying “Never assume that the same number of pigs
that accidentally kill themselves in your front yard will again kill themselves next year?” Yea, well neither did I. But the Chinese animation team known as GuangYu does, and they’ve animated a fairly stylish rendition of this time-honored tale. The animation is rather simple and clunky, but it’s pleasing to look at, and we can all learn a little something from it’s message – which has something to do with pigs and stumps and hunger. Be prepared for a bit of a long download.
More of GuangYu’s work can be seen here and here.
Cartoon Saloon out of Kilkenny, Ireland is a
Flash-animation studio that’s currently working on a TV project called ‘Skunk Fu,’ who is described as “a western kid learning Kung Fu from a wise old Panda in China.” The show, according to an article in The Times, is being produced for the BBC and Super RTL in Germany, as well as Swedish and French television. A clip can be found on their site, and make sure you check out their beautifully animated Earthshare commercial (click on ‘animation’ ‘commercials’ and then the middle, right link).
