RSA – Simon Sinek – Intensity vs Consistency


Animation is the process of making small, repetitive, consistent actions, over and over, until you suddenly find you have created something you are proud of. Simon Sinek’s wonderful talk for The RSA is about applying that positive attitude to work and life.

E-Sports Explainer


In the past few years we have had a few clients come through our doors looking for help with their E-Sports projects. These jobs and clients have inspired us to create a short explainer about the new and fast moving genre of E-Sports. It is moving very fast and furious, growing constantly. This made us excited to dive deeper with the networks and teams in all these leagues. This is our fun interpretation on the new phenomenon.

FAQs:

Q. What software do you use?
A. Simon’s Cat is made using Adobe Flash / TV Paint / CelAction animation software.

Q. Why does it take so long to make each Simon’s Cat film?
A. Animation is a slow process and Simon’s Cat films pay particular attention to observed, real life cat behaviour. Historically the films were traditionally animated frame by frame. More recently we use Celaction which has sped up the process but still requires a lot of care and attention. Each film takes approximately 6-9 weeks to make, depending on complexity, number of characters and special effects.

Q. Where can I buy Simon’s Cat merchandise?
A. You can purchase Simon’s Cat products from our online shop! – https://shop.simonscat.com/
