Nice !
very cool animation.
That’s one odd story…

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 
This certainly have shades of ‘up’. But I would still applaud this one man job. Love short films like this. =)
If ya check out the films blog, you can see this was started 9 months before “UP” was released.

Thanks for all the great feedback everyone. I’ll post more info/pics soon, but for now I just wanted to make it clear that I was not copying “UP”. As if I could =P
Thanks,

excellent work!
i think the animation came off looking more stylistic than unskilled… it was well done
and the only reason the story might not work (in my mind at least) is that it’s not logical… lol! but it’s really funny to think of a corp. wanting to build a mall on a barge in the middle of the ocean… hahaha
somebody compared this story to Pixar’s “UP”, which i haven’t seen, but i doubt it will make me say “WTF!” like this movie did!
fantastic job
cheerios

zayacoon: Thanks!
sculptor.zb: Glad ya liked it.
slorpthegillman: As I stated before, you can see on the films blog that I started the project way before Up came out. Hopefully you were able to enjoy it =)
fshayong: Thanks!
RamRam: Animating 9 minutes in 10 months was not easy. Glad ya liked it.
lemonnado: Odd for me is nothing new. Hopefully you enjoyed it.
womball: The project was done in my free time. About 5-8 Hours a night. I’ll be looking for volunteer animators for my next film (I know, good luck . But hey, maybe theres a college animator out there who wants an imdb credit =P)
VictorCS: Glad ya liked it. I should mention that the voiceover work was done by a very cool dude named Kip French. If you check out his site you can see why I used him. http://www.kipfrenchvo.com/
GX@W: Glad you enjoyed it.
invertedNormal: Yeah, the animation looks almost stop motion to me. That wasn’t by choice, but it worked out since I dont have much skill in that area. Im all about the WTF moments. Glad ya liked it.
