hi y'all!

Here is an animation featuring three rednecks titled "Backyard Bugaboo". In the animation I was atempting to apply tradtional 2D techniques such as squash and stretch in a 3D environment. It was made using Maya 4.5


320 x 240 quicktime:

quite a funny short...since I'm heading out soon I'll just give a few comments. When the guy falls and tries to pull his teeth out the first time, they pop out of his mouth and dangle in mid air. When the TV hits his foot, it also goes into his pants/leg.
other than it was good
cheers

How long did it take to animate this?
Looked at it again and, it is really good animation. I can't find any flaws. The only thing I would do would be to cut it to make it a bit shorter.

the animation aspect took about 3 months to complete. i agree that it could use some additional editing to make it shorter. haha, but sometimes it's difficult to have an objective opinion and throw away parts you have worked hard on! :)
