Classic cartoon

The TV kind: bold lines and flat shading.

Modern

Flat vector, with adult proportions and no thick outline.

Hand-drawn ink

Ink, hatching and cream paper, like a sketchbook.

Stick figures

Head and sticks: simple and expressive, for jokes, ads, stories or reflections.

A REAL STORY

A 2D story with a narrator

“The little forest ghost” came from this script (in Spanish). The app picked the forest and the background animals from what the story says.

Narrador: En un bosque muy tranquilo vivía un fantasmita llamado Ghost Peg.
Ghost Peg: ¡Hola, árboles! ¿Quieren jugar conmigo?
Narrador: Pero los árboles solo movían sus hojas con el viento.
Dani: Ghost Peg, los árboles no juegan... ¡pero yo sí!
Ghost Peg: ¡Entonces juguemos a las escondidas!
Narrador: Y desde ese día, el bosque nunca volvió a estar en silencio.
