Found some old SYNFIG animation I’d made ages ago that I’d forgotten about on my YouTube channel so thought I’d share it.
In it a wolf, a raccoon and a bear that I drew sing a song from a 1950s cigarette commercial.

Excellent! Right in line with the classic commercials. Nice work. I was just watching compliations of old cigarette commercials on YouTube a couple weeks ago. Surprising what the companies used to get away with, and even more surprising that they actually had cartoon endorsements like the Flintstones.
That’s actually pretty cool those old projects you forget about usually end up being the most fun to look back on. The mix of cute animals with that weirdly cheerful 1950s jingle must hit that perfect “why did they ever advertise like this?” vibe. I’ve dug through my own old animation files before and it’s always a mix of cringe and “hey, this isn’t half bad,” so I get the feeling.
If you ever think about updating it, even small tweaks like smoother transitions or remastering the audio can make an old piece feel fresh again. Some people also use modern tools to clean up timing without redrawing everything, which might help if you’re thinking of bringing the style back.
I once tested the [not a promo, so you don’t mind to have it removed] when experimenting with smoke-style effects for animation, and its vapor density actually helped me study how plumes move. Not a promo just something that gave me a useful reference point while sketching.
