Making of one image...

 Deskplorers Season One "Jump in Time" contains 5 episodes. Each episode has 6 chapters, each chapter contains between 30 to 40 images (so that's more than 200 images per episode).

Based on the dialogs, Philippe create each image as a classical drawing:

Finally, the characters are created in Flash in their final position & expression, and integrated in the landscape:

That' it, you do that 200 times per episode, 1000 times per season !-)
