it isnt 3d, its actually stopmo. please please please, 'right click' and 'save target as' dont kill my bw. my first foray into that genre. i did it in 98 as part of a larger project which im now debating whether or not i should reproduce. i still have all my original footage (live actions and pupettering) thats a bigger part of the whole story. but i thought i would start small at first and check out my animations since the whole project rides on the quality of that and the fact that i cant reshoot it. the animations are very herky-jerky. like i said, it waw my first. there wasnt much time to play/test so i spent more time researching than doing, i think. thought that first shoot took a week to do over several hours a day. i used an shvs machine connected to my sony digicam to capture frames so the res is low, (before consumer-computer aided capture) and it is compressed here so i can share it. if it looks familiar to anyone, it was part of a giant release in 2000. over 1500 copies of the short-film were sent to people who registered with my website, before i started streaming it. then 10's of thousands of viewers made a point of sharing their thoughts. -though... they did have the final movie to view.... its a little dissjointed right now :P but hopefully, ill find the time to redo it all over again. lol

Wow, that's really cool! The only stop motion I ever did was with my old g i joe and transformer toys and a 8mm camera. It never turned out anything like that.

This is amazing. I'd have loved it to have sound T__T You almost made me want to do some stopmotion (I said almost ;) ) <---signature---> nemirc Animation Moderator

lol@nemirc after having done that then moving into 3d, I can certainly apreciate how much work went into not only the animation but the set behind it. all the building,painting-- electrical. yes thats an old-cell phone (green lights) rigged in one shot. lol! 2 years after building that set, it had a date with my foot and the fireplace. to bad i couldnt just back it up to cd. lol
