Fanty is a meticulous recreation of Fantasmagorie, the first ever hand-drawn animation. The process began with each scene being carefully redrawn by hand, frame by frame, staying true to the original’s unique style. These hand-drawn frames were then digitized and enhanced using various software tools, ensuring that every detail and effect matched the iconic animation perfectly. The final step involved compiling the frames in Vegas PRO to produce a smooth, updated animation, while maintaining the integrity of the original.

HOW FANTY BECAME THE RECREATION OF THE FIRST CARTOON EVER
HOW FANTY BECAME THE RECREATION OF THE FIRST CARTOON EVER
[ 01 ]
IMPORT & TIMING
Start by importing the sequence of hand-drawn frames into Vegas Pro. I organize them on the timeline and set the correct timing to maintain the rhythm and pace of the animation.
- Import image sequence
- Set frame rate and duration
- Structure the base timeline

VISUAL ADJUSTMENTS & ANIMATION TWEAKS
At this stage, I focus on refining the visual flow of the animation. Even though the drawings are hand-made, I adjust them slightly to ensure smooth transitions and maintain the surreal, expressive spirit of Fantasmagorie.
- Reframe or slightly scale images when necessary
- Add subtle motion effects (shakes, flickers)
- Clarify gestures and improve rhythm

FINAL EDIT & EXPORT
This is where everything comes together. I polish the cuts, adjust the timing, and make sure the visual language remains consistent from start to finish. The goal is to create a cohesive short film that flows naturally and stays true to the original style.
- Remove or add frames to fix pacing
- Adjust duration for smoother timing
- Export in high quality
