lol..bloddy wasp!

Good job on the animation.

Dude,

That was a nice job. Looekd very good and seemed to be well composited. I take it you filmed first then tracked in the cg animation etc...

You should be proud.

Nice video it looks great.

The only part that I thought could use improvement was when the is dancing on the table. the little girls hands don't show any emotion they just stay open in that same position. maybe you could of had her clap her hands or something.

Otherwise great job it was fun to watch.

Thank you very much everyone

Yeah we filmed it all and then used PFtrack to track the shots. Some of them were actually a real pain as there wasn't any parallax in them something PFtrack likes.

Thank you, glad you found it funny, I some time wonder if it's just me that has a twsited sense of humor so it's good to know I'm not

@ Chirone
Thank you

@the DUKE
Thank you. A lot of the animation wasn't really taken much out of the refining stage just due to not really having much time to work on all the shots. The worst one is probably the bit where she drops into the girls hands. I add some subtle movement but it was lost in the final shot so she kind of looks pretty stiff.


@joverall

Yeah I agree, but it's true what they say, don't work with kids or animals. You wouldn't believe what a nightmare it was even to get her to sit in the chair

Thank you everyone, I really appreciate your feedback.
