this short, is looking amazing, fantastic job with the trailer, the characters looking fantastic, all is awesome congratulations!!. looks like a pixar short ! really :smiley:

Hey man nice work!
You can never go wrong with characters with big noses ^^
I love the shoes he has on.
The trailer looked very nice even tho it was maybe a bit calm mood
for so many lifechanging questions.
Good luck on the festival tour and be sure to upload it once u can :slight_smile: :+1:

Wow. really impressive render…great stuff!

Very nice work man! I really like the old guy :+1:

manzarek123: Thanks so much for the kind words. It really excites me about the entire film as I truly believe the visuals hold up throughout the 9 minute film.

Disco Stu: “You can never go wrong with characters with big noses”, Amen to that =) I see what you mean about the calm attitude for such life changing events. Truthfully, I threw the trailer together in one night just cause I was dieing to show something. You work on something for 9 months, ya wanna show it! Thanks again.

SolidSnakexxx: Thanks!

Captain Sensible: Thanks Captain. It seems like a character you would like. You see, hes slightly base on my father, who just happens to be a captain in real life. hehe. He’s a fun character. In the film you learn a bit more about his passions and his trade, which is bird fishing =)
Anyway, thanks for checking out the trailer.

I love the characters - great stuff

I like your style, it reminds me a little of the Lloyds bank type animation…great stuff…:smiley:

andy.chen: Thanks!

AgentEnigma: Those commercials are awesome. Thanks =)

nice lighting, funny looking characters, I like.

aesis412: Hey there, thanks for the comment. There are 5 or 6 other characters in the film that are along the same line as those shown in the trailer.

Thanks,

Hello everyone. I recently put my film online and would like to invite everyone to check it out.

The story is about a man who lives with his dead wife in a house built on a tree, which grew from a barge that floats on a sea. His life is turned upside down when a giant evil corporation threatens to tear down his home and put in a mall. Things get more complex when a strange creature appears. The film was created entirely by myself over the course of about 10 months. All rendered at 1080hd thanks to the use of renderrocket.com's online renderfarm service. Which I highly recommend. I'm not an animator by trade, so the animation certainly needs quite a bit of work. The film is currently doing the rounds at film festivals. Though, its not going as well as I'd hoped. But I get it. The film certainly has its flaws which I have thankfully learned from =) Story, story, story! Anyway, You can view the film here... [http://www.vimeo.com/6494690](http://www.vimeo.com/6494690) For those interested in the film im currently working on (an 80's film in the spirit of The Goonies, The Gate, and Monster Squad), you can check out the blog for it at [http://radicoolfilm.blogspot.com/](http://radicoolfilm.blogspot.com/) I'll be looking for help from animators. Hint hint =) Thanks so much. Enjoy!

Is this job voluntary or paid? Great image too, he would be fun to animate, the mustache should be its own character.

When I read “The film was created entirely by myself over the course of about 10 months.” I was thinking: “Can this be good? Render looks good, but”.

This was awesome, and the voice and background music made it perfect :smiley:
