Greetings all,

for your amusement:

My apologies for all the surrounding advertisements.

Warning for headphone users: the sound is possibly a little loud.

Regards, Myles.

That reminds me of when I tried to revive my cat...


I'm kidding, I'm kidding. Fun little short there.

I don't which I laughed louder at, the "Oh Crap" or the catering credit. :D :D

Funny work Myles. :)


@Agent - Try right clicking on it and in Plugin Settings make sure you have 'play videos automatically' (or something like that) set in QT.

Very funny and refreshing :lol:

Sound effects and voice talent were very good, character animation was reasonable, staging was good, special effects were good, but not all of them.

FWIW I have some tips for improvement:
- flash-burning of the corpse needs much better SFX
- lip-synching is a bit off (or is this intentional?)
- the actor needs more abruptness in his movements
- a "gothic feeling" would make this anim look more authentic and thus strengthen the plot twist at the end

I hope you didn't mind my critique, it was meant to give positive input.

Thanks everyone!

Thanks RASH for your critique - I do appreciate the tips. I'm not sure I'll re-work this particular animation, but I'll keep your comments in mind for the next animation!

Agent - yes, sorry about that, Sorenson wasn't supported until at least Quicktime 5, I think - and I might have even used Sorenson 3.0, which wasn't supported until Quicktime 6.

Jorgy - I was wondering whether that would amuse anyone but me.

Regards, Myles.
