July 4th 2010 & Animation
Please take the time to watch my 14 sec animation at YouTube!
CLICK HERE TO SEE!
I spent a great deal of time on this animated video.
Many hours spent texturing the costumes, and posing the characters thru 140 frames of motion.
27 Hours of render time, and many more hours creating a blue screen effect to achieve the background.
A little more time spent cropping, and timing the music to the motion.
Doubtful I will do anything like this in the future, but I did enjoy the challenge.
I hope you had a joyous & safe 4th of July!
