OK, my latest work project is complete, thought I'd post it here as it's been fun. It's an animation to explain what our organisation does; I had a few [hectic] weeks to do it from start to finish; voiceover is me, and the music is public domain stuff.
See it here >>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kac7-eGqmFM
All props are modelled in Rhino, apart from the human characters which are Toon Generations. Animation and rendering is Poser, rendered at 24fps, 1280x720, then edited in Adobe Premiere.

There's a lot of noise in the voice audio. Did you try something like noise removal in audacity? But it's overall good.

it was pretty good IMVHO. I watched it with the sound muted.

@wolf359 - yeah like I said I produced all the props (maps, the train, houses, churches etc etc) in Rhino3D, then animated in Poser by hand by keyframing and splitting the movie into 7 scenes. The render is also Poser (Firefly), with occasional use of depth of field; the thing that gives it the 'clay' feel is the use of subsurface scattering, which I faked using material node wizardry. The only thing I didn't model were the humanoid characters.
@flibbits - I agree about the audio. I tried filtering, but the noise is low-range rather than high frequency so filters didn't touch it. I didn't have time to play around getting it right unfortunately; this was a quick project!
@saibabmeuk - small world! Did you produce the whole 11 minutes yourself? It has a desolate feel to it which I guess is due to the audio. I found producing my movie that I learnt loads as I went along; your 11 minutes seems to have different styles at different stages too.

Wow. This is one of the most effective Poser animations I've seen.

Yes, quite right spent nearly a year working on it!
The desolate feel comes from Wiltshire. Well, not so much desolate as reclusive perhaps.
Next the Tiger Hunter.

I've got a lot of time for reclusive. One of the great things about doing this video for the Diocese was that I was allowed to put my out-of-office alert on my email so I wouldn't get disturbed for two solid weeks! Bliss.
Tiger Hunter; intriguing. Are we talking tanks or safari? Keep us posted.

dt00swc, I'm charmed by your animation. Clever, well timed, elegantly simple. Very impressed. PM sent, I'd like to talk to you further. Cheers, Steve Cooper
