How to make Samurai Jack?

[tkn77]

Hi,

I am going to produce my own animation about Vietnamese folklores and trying to decide on the perfect software to create it in. I watch Samurai Jack on the Cartoon Network (http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/samuraijack/index.html) and that is the style and look of what I'm trying to achieve. I am looking into Toonboom (http://www.toonboom.com) and Mirage (http://www.bauhaussoftware.com) but was wondering if there is anything else out there that could help me do something like Samurai Jack! Any recommendations???

Please help because I have until November to finish. Tick tock!

Thank you ahead for your suggestions.

The computer software is inconsequential to the look and feel of Samurai Jack imo.
I'm certain all those softwares mentioned can be used to achieve that look and feel.

Talent and the software between your ears are most important.

Thanks Graphite,

I understand that the software won't make the animation itself, but I am looking for something that would make things more stream line to help my work flow smoothly. I know there's no magic pill to produce a good animation, but I do believe that the new technology has made animation less tedious than it has in the past and I'm looking for that "tool" to help me create it.

Have you tried either of those programs and if so, what do you think?

No I've not, but I am confident one could achieve a similar look in Flash.
