A montage of test animation I made to prepare for THAC tomorrow.
The set was built for THAC, I'll probably make up a story which happens in that Riigo-Faloovian village and involves those gnomes, Ouskavar the Goblin hero, and Gloaming the Unicorn.
Please tell me what you thought both the animation and set design. 
The set design and animation were stellar. I always liked the quaint village of Riigo-Faloo. Great job and good luck on the THAC! 
That was absolutely fantastic, I loved it. I may as well not bother now, I mean we all know who's going to win...

I still only estimate a 75% possibility of me finishing on time.
Wow, awesome animation! And I liked the lighting, but why you have light flicking even I don't and we both have same cameras?
That was just... wow!
You're definetly going to place high, if not win.
I can do some horse sounds (whinnying and sneezing) if you need them for the unicorn.

Gloaming doesn't whinny.
He's a manly unicorn.
A fun test montage to watch! I liked the random things ("skyrim", "impossible entrance", "dramatic turn"), the animation was smooth, and there was virtually no flicker that I could tell.
The only things that were off to me was the "slow dolly", which had a somewhat "flickery" and "wobbly" focus, and the slash, which looked too "mechanical"--it didn't have enough ease-in-and-out, and didn't look very convincing. Also, while I really liked the "text focus", it cut too quickly to the next frame. But aside from these relatively minor gripes, this is looking good. I can't wait for your THAC entry!
By the way, how did you do the camera movements in "more camera stuff"?
I did a better job on these tests than the animation in my actual THAC film. 
But it's still looking really great, and I think I'll have the final edit up tomorrow.
