Great work! I really liked it. The setting is simple and established pretty fast. You have cool animation and no superfluous scenes! Very good!

great little short !
Very nice animation ! The zombies are very nicely animated. And emotions are very good on the "hero" !
Render is poor, but it's definitely not the purpose... Your animation is just great !

Hey Andrew,

Great short man, you have some complex actions there that you have animated really nicely. I think the main character could have had a less zombie-esque complexion for the first half just to give the ending a bit more punch but its probably a bit late for that now. Anyway great effort mate! ( i am in Class 6 now :D )


Keep it up!

Sweet short full of funny details and fine animation.
There's just one gaping plot-hole... what will he serve?

I assume all the zombies want is brains, so you suppose he's gonna go out to kill and then share with other zombies? Huh, not likely. And with the supply dwindling how will his enterprise survive (and furthermore, what will the zombies pay with to keep his bistro in business... more brains?)? He'll have to keep breeding pens of the living and harvest them eventually, and by then the birth rate...
oh...
...NOW I can see why you didn't address it. :p

It ended just how I expected. Good work.

Front page material for sure, I think you nailed this. Nice editing, pace, camerawork and of course some great animation and a nice little story.

One minor critique would be that the end shot fades to black a little early, it would be nice to see the credits role as your host continues to invite his guests inside, perhaps with some zombie-like greetings!

All in all, great work though, a fine short. 5 stars from me.

Congratulations on finishing your really great short film! I still remember when Chris was giving you critiques on your blocking. Great work! I love the way he uses the arm as a tie in the end :)
