New edit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lrbOQE_5ms . Any opinions on the script, look, voice acting, sound, music and anything else would be splendid. Would like to re-jig it later.
(Meant as a cartoon sketch for kids, BTW)

Bigfoot Cartoon
This was so daft it made me laugh! Good graphics, I loved the voice, but when I saw whose voice it was, they didn't quite match up.
Would it work better if I got the bigfoot to sound like one would expect a bigfoot to sound?
A nice idea, Yacob. Two things I think you could do to improve it...
1) As has been suggested, lose the Spongebob voice and go for a more regular one. Perhaps even something a little Attenboroughy.
2) Add some variation into the visuals of the setup to make it less of a chore. The odd bird or a beehive would go some way to breaking up the repetition.

Well, you don't want to give away that is the bigfoot, perhaps a daft voice but a bit lower? (I did love the voice though)
Cheers David and Shirl. Think you're both right. Will amend the cartoon in the ways you've suggested.
Any other comments welcome though.
OK, just put the new version up.
Better? Worse? Any other thoughts.
Link, Yacob?
Just had to change something in the cartoon quickly. Link's back up now.
Ha! I like it, and the animation is good too. I especially enjoyed the bees.
Yes, that's tons better. The voice matches and I love the woodpecker and bees. Had a 12 year old watching with me, and she loved it too!
Very good. I like the odd blinking.
Simple idea that worked quite well. Looked good mate.
Thanks for your comments, everyone. I'm glad the 12-year-old liked it as that's (more or less) the target audience.
Well done on going back and reworking this, Yacob. In terms of the visuals it's a huge improvement but I still stand by the idea that a regular voice will make it funnier than a "cartoon" one.
