Hi everyone. I would like to share with you all my r&d animation clip that i created while doing rnd for P3k:Pinocchio 3000 a year ago.

The purpose of this clip was to convince the producers to employ the keyframme approach as opposed to mocap, and to establish an animation style for all the characters.

It took me 6 working days to complete this clip. It is 100% keyfrmmed. I had no reference. Straight ahead was the approach I used for this animation in particular. :bounce:

Hope you all enjoy! Feed back would be most welcomed!

wow looks great!!! I gues my only crit or rather personal preference would be to have him hang a bit more before he collapses.. maybe scramble a bit more... kind of fight to stay up.. right now it looks a bit like he collapses on purpose..

looks really good though!
what ever Happended to pinocchio 3000 anyway?
