REALLY good work. I can't think of anything to critique, except maybe to tone down the reflections around Broc Lee's eyes. Magnificent!

I like it. I think the pacing of the short needs a bit of work, but all in all great work. Gotta love those Ninja Carrots.

Oh LOL that is GREAT :applause: The Ninja Carrots rule!
Even though I agree that some of the pacing needs a bit of work, all in all I think it's a superb effort - I'm plugging this one on the front page :thumbsup:
I really enjoyed watching it, I thought the theme was great fun, and the characters were very original. The way that Angelface walked reminded me of that female alien in Mars Attacks :D
Great stuff :applause:
Oh, and welcome to CG Talk too :beer:
front page front page front page!!!!
All Hail Broc Li. Great work. Finally a full animation around here, with a story. Great great work

Very cool animation. I did notice that your characters seem to pose in the guard postion with thier torsos forward, and that is not practical fighting. But your movements were smooth and believable, it's just a nitpick. I really dug the facial expression you did after he flexes to show off, that was great. Was that oyster sauce he climbed there?
arvid
05-07-2003, 10:14 AM
That was funny! Love the name Broc Lee :D The soup waves could be improved, and I think you should make the clip a full 25 frames per second, the 12.x makes it jerky, wasn't able to download the highres clip, maybe it's different there. Good stuff non the less :)

I found this entertaining. The only thing that buged me was broc lees voice. Maybe it could use some more variations.

Ha, ha! Classic stuff! I was expecting him to move his mouth incorrectly to some long winded speech ala the old badly dubbed Bruce Lee movies at one stage, ("so you wanna fight... fight me!")
I loved the bit when he punches the ninja carrot behind him, and then stands there shaking a little bit, the expression and everything was perfect. You nailed it. Thanks for sharing this, it was a great laugh, everyone in the office loved it.

Excellent job! The modelling and texturing is solid, quality, and well presented. It's not easy to choreograph all that fighting and acrobatics! Is it a joint effort or a one-man band? How long did you have for the project?
Issues such as the sound give it that home-made quality which I love to see. Things can get too perfect these days with all these top studios in prominence.

Pretty groovy stuff man. Phil Vischer meets Bruce Lee, schweet.
I especially loved the Noh sound effects throughout. I don't know why but every time I hear a soundbyte of some dude in a Noh drama going "ohhhhh" I bust out laughing.
I only have two crits:
1) The reflection on the cleavers seems off... especially when there isn't comparable reflection in the pots and pans elsewhere.
2) Angel Faces' body proportions bothered me. Of course I realize she's an Asparagus, but even so her torso seemed a little long. Maybe if her cheongsam was a little more form fitting, so as to show us her hip location, before she starts kicking. The Brocolli is half naked so we can see his stylized anatomy from the start and we recognize it as such.
Dunno... just my .02
lol I loved the name too, great short! :applause: :applause:

Very nice. Especially loved the intro of the characters... heh.
Only problem that I noticed was the movement of the camera at the beginning and later when Broc's climbing up to Angleface. The movement of the camera seems a bit stiff/robotic.

Funny premise. The animation can be improved in a lot of places, but overall the short is pretty good. Nice job.

I wish I could see it, but it stops downloading after it downloads 5 mb, and then it says it can't play when I open it. When I open it with Quicktime, I just hear it but it doesn't show any video, and I have Quicktime 6 too.:shrug:

From one VFSer to another: GREAT JOB! I laughed out loud quite a few times. My only advice, the textures are far too specular, and a bit distracting at times.

P.S. Any advice about VFS?
Hey onli 89 bytes per sc.. damn slow! :surprised :surprised

I have to agree... for something to sound so good, downloading this thing is almost more of a hassle than it's worth.

However, I'm still downloading it anyway. :P Hopefully when I wake up in the morning, I can experience vegetable violence. :)

Hey guys .. thanks for checking out my reel. For those of you who are having trouble downloading it .. the VFS server is not allowing me to access my files, therefore I had to put it on my own internet server which is VERY SLOW !!! Sorry for the inconvenience, but I'll deal with the problem once the VFS server is up and running.
Thanks for your patience.

Well, I love the concept, but the download was so slow, I haven't seen it yet. Also, i use a Mac, and Divx AVIs don't always play, so before I download your film, I'd like to know if it is Divx. Sorry about beeing so fussy. I wouldn't bother if I didn't like your concept.
Cheers, Graham
