Quote - the music and sound effects are epic, well done. The anim is a good start. What tool was used for anim/rendering?

(I guess I should read those scrolling credits and list of tools shown at the end :-)

 

You know, all in all, kudos... because while it may at times look crude or simple, if not amusing, it's probably better than what I could produce if my life depended on it. So, really, great job!  Keep at it!

 

 Thanks for the comment.  I appreciate your kind words

The short film was made & rendered with Daz studio 3 advanced. and it was just a test animation for using a timeline presets for the sub dragon.

 so I thought of  instead of doing like hundreds of others do when they matke a test, which is lifeless and a bunch of test animations with no story or reason. I tried to make a cute story out of my test animations.

I'm not a writer or a actress, so thats out. but I am a  graphic artist. so for a production I did completely myself. Including the character voices,( I used a voice changing software)  Music timing and remastering. creating & timing sound effects (I made myself.) and then putting all the daz models togther and animating them. Its not a pixar animation for sure. But its not half bad being all done by one person.

 

I know there are some viewers that expect more out of animatons.  But It's really surprizing how many people think that low budget software and one person creating an animation  and expect it to be as good as a pixar animation. which has hundreds of people and millons of dollars.  Its just just not gonna happen when its one person, using cheap software  :)

 But then again it really surprises me is how many worst animations than this test animaton i have seen on youtube which people love.  Go figure:)
