Crime Time: The Series - Crime Time: Electro-Phobia

Crime always pays - with big laughs in this series of rambunctious animated shorts. Shifty (The Criminal), a pint-sized pilferer with lofty ambitions and limited brainpower, perpetrates crimes from the sublime to the ridiculous - and never quite pulls them off, resulting in hilarious consequences. Rendered in a graphic style reminiscent of classic UPA shorts, the action is nothing short of... arresting!

Crime Time is a short animated series from Future Thought Productions. The series, made in a combination of Adobe's Flash and SoftImage XSI (CG), though simple is delightfully full of many details that make animation such a wonderful story telling device.
