Fawn Veerasunthorn at Six Point Harness Studios directed this Flash-animated Chowder spot for Cartoon Network’s Get Animated campaign. It’s part of the Spot the Block effort which “encourages kids to use the Nutrition Facts Label on food packages to make healthier food choices.” The animation team included James Krenzke, Mac Whiting, Jaime Velasquez, and Joe Kossuth.

…also, here’s the animatic below and check out Fawn’s details on the process.

Remember the Activision games for the Atari 2600? I played those to death. Freeway was one of the first, releasing in 1981. Pitfall! came a year later, and now Activision is one of the biggest video game publishers in the world.

And last year, GameTap, the broadband gaming network, hired Six Point Harness to make a series of animated shorts featuring the characters from several of these original game properties. They’re essentially marketing tools to drive more subscriptions to the online service, but you can also play some classic online games for free including Defender and Joust. They were directed by Chris Martin, Fawn Veerasunthorn and Mac Whiting and fell under the Re\Visioned brand, which also saw some 2007 Lara Croft shorts.

Watch all six at YouTube, and here’s two of my favorites:

Freeway (play online – $4.95 per month for over 300 games)

Pitfall! (play online)

Ryan Green and Fawn Veerasunthorn, the co-owners and creative directors at Bluefoot Studios, have delivered a snappy, little Valentine’s Day short. Both Ryan and Fawn are graduates of Columbus College of Art & Design, but they keep their studio in Astoria, NY. When they’re not working on Bluefoot projects, they’re at Animation Collective, where Ryan works on Ellen’s Acres, and Fawn works on Kappa Mikey, both Flash animated series.
