Re: Stranger than Fishin'

Incredible work. The animation was so lifelike I very nearly forgot it was animation. If I was to get nitpicky I'd say the lighting was rather flat, but it's brilliant otherwise. You've capitalized on the medium perfectly.

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

The animation was just so ... beautiful! mini/delirium

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

That was outstanding. Every aspect of this film was extremely enjoyable, starting with the lifelike and near perfect animation and ending with a nice story and concept. Brilliant work!

I'm happy that it didn't just end with a random silence.

Don't be fooled, my avatar is a facade of conformity.

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

The music choice made it so much better. But that was seriously great.

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

Was this the project you were talking about shooting at 24fps on twos?

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

How long did this take to complete?

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

Wow, I can't believe this is the first you've animated in a while.

Brilliant as always, MindGame.
Despite the obvious Halo reference, there are numerous Valve ones, too:
- HL2 (the crowbar)
- Portal (Portal gun)
-Left 4 Dead 2 (chainsaw)
- TF2 (wrench)

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

It's hard to believe that such greatness can be achieved with a "child's" toy.  Your cinematogrophy, especially, was just brilliant!

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

Stunning animation !
You have make a great film Mindgame mini/smile

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

That was awesome. As said before, you've perfected the medium. The animation is incredible, everything is so smooth and realistic, it's hard to believe it's stop motion. The only thing was really enjoyable, one of my favorites from you. mini/smile

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

VERY well done! mini/bigsmile  The animation was flawless, and the Dane Cook joke was awesome!

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

Don't want to put a downer on all the positive feedback, but did nobody else notice some light flicker/ exposure changes? It was quite noticeable on the blue background, I think I have light flicker OCD.... and also I felt it would have been funnier if as soon as Dane Cook was fished out he was thrown back in again, but I suppose that was part of the plot for later. Other than that, I really enjoyed the animation, the little flourishes put in and the set design.

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

In relation to animation, it is one of the very best brickfilm I've seen. Each animation is so well done in every detail. Even the very small parts. The timing and spacing is superb. I can not even describe how great it is.

Re: Stranger than Fishin'

BUMP

The animation in this film was very good, but it does not deserve perfect for it. We're not saying that it's bad, but it should deserve an 8 or 9, his animation was NOT perfect. No ones can be.
