2D caricature animation

As a interest i have always like to design my own type of caricatures of friends, computer and film characters. After watching a series of 2DTV, instantly i found it to be hilarious. As there are not many 2D caricature animations around, although there is not a great deal of animation work included in this cartoon, what makes the show so funny is the designs of characters. what i love about caricatures is that the main features of the persons face and body are blown completely out of proportion making it more funny than ever. Another main quality about 2DTV are the characters voices and how they capture the stupidity of the celebrities faults and take the piss by sounding nothing like the actual person in real life. from watching these this it has given me more of an idea to animate my designs as well and i do think that caricature animation should be publicised a lot more 2D and 3D.
