Real Life Jef

There are times in everyones life when they are "awakened" by their searches. Recently, I've had just such an "awakening" after looking for some answers regarding the much acclaimed flash animation series "There She Is" by SamBakZa.

I've been a fan of this series for roughly 3 years now. The story of a growing love between a Cat and a Rabbit in a society that does not allow for their union is both touching and humorous. The artwork and soundwork is perfect, and the attention to detail in all 3 of the "There She Is" story-line is incredible. SamBakZa also did a previous flash-animation, "HotFish - Same, but different" which shares many of the same imagery and inspiration as their later works. It is a great pity SamBakZa was unable to secure the permission from the owner of the music in this work to allow "HotFish" to be views publicly any more.

Like most viewers, I was content with their work. The beauty and simplicity of their style - the story of love. But then I realized that there was more to this series - a message beneath its cuteness. I wanted to know more about it. I wanted to know the inspiration behind the social divisions between Cats and Rabbits in the series.
