A cel-shaded clip that Gemini drew frame by frame with its own tool

Argon had built itself a custom DSL for quick sketching. Asked to animate a scene, it drew each next frame from scratch, rocking the motion back and forth and iterating into a short clip, then added cel shading, transparency and a background.

I found Argon could sketch pretty quickly when using a custom dsl tool it had built for the job.

So I asked it to try animating a scene by sketching the next few frames from scratch each time, rocking the motion back and forth a bit, and iterating to make a short clip.

Then I asked it to add cel shading and transparency and to put it all together onto a background.
