A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW
If you’ve been watching Oprah, Good Morning America, and R-News lately, you may have seen the ads for Rochester boutique, “A Different Point of View.” This store on Monroe Avenue is unlike any other, so we at Animatus created the “shopping fairy” to help demonstrate that fact.
Watch the animated commercial online at http://animatusstudio.com/cartoons/adpov.html

D’OH! HOMER COMES HOME DECEMBER 18
If you missed THE SIMPSONS MOVIE in the theater, don’t fret — it’s coming to DVD and Blu-Ray! That’s right, you can get the Simpsons’ big screen adventure for your small screen this coming Tuesday the 18th.
We at Animatus are perfectly happy to sell out and promote this movie for a few crumbs of promotional material from Fox. It’s just that good!
The Simpsons Movie finds the fate of Springfield — the suburban setting that has been home to “The Simpsons” clan for more than 18 years — hanging in the balance when Homer and his new pet pig inadvertently cause a major ecological disaster in their hometown. Forced to flee, it is up to the paunchy patriarch to save his family, the Springfield community and possibly… the world.
The Simpsons Movie DVD is loaded with bonus features including commentaries with “Simpsons” writers/producers, actors and directors, numerous deleted scenes and promotional spots including The Simpsons Judge American Idol and Homer’s Monologue On The Tonight Show. The Simpsons Movie single disc DVD will be available at a suggested retail price of $29.98 U.S.
