Using pixelpaint to create a simple animated sequence of scrolling stars and a spaceship, and then compositing them into an animated gif with imagemagick composite and convert.
I and James Britt added lots of features since youtube.com/watch?v=uTog_MlFZtk, animation being the biggest change. Here is the GPL Processing/java source code: github.com/lucasw/pixelpaint
The music is the guitar track from the creative commons attribution noncommercial licensed "Spiral (Superheromovie)" ccmixter.org/files/boomaga/32790
Edited this together with Kdenlive 0.9.5 on Ubuntu 12.10 using this build script: github.com/mltframework/mlt-scripts/blob/master/build/build-kdenlive.sh
