animated illustrations/gifs

I'm quite certain i've decided to go down the animated versions route and abandon the ephemera
mostly because i have no idea what the point of the ephemera was, except that i thought it would be nice to hold and have accompanying a book, and i wanted to make it
i think the reason that i couldnt find a name for that kind of book (with accompanying ephemera) or many examples of them is that its probably something that never really took off

so instead i'll side with the future, the tablet, the ebook, the kindle
the book can be available as a hard print copy with (obviously) stationary drawings, but there will be a link sold with the book to access or download the digital animated version of the book
i suppose the purpose of this would be that it's more engaging children and vaguely interactive
also it means i get to animate again
also product range and distribution etc.... greater range because the book is available physically and digitally, easier to access wherever whenever, and can be an easier way to distribute the book, no need for costly print because it exists online

anyway here's some stuff i've been looking at in reference to this new plan

(issuu won't take gifs so they'll have to just be like this) 











i think they absolutely have to loop perfectly otherwise they are awful and there's no point, they would begin to catch the eye for bad reasons and become distracting on the page



also added some gif stuff to my 505 pinboard
