Hey all,

My animated thesis, Ingredients, is finally up at studentfilms.com (http://www.studentfilms.com/film/get.do?id=549) .

I would love to hear your comments and critique! A year's worth of work put into 5 minutes- gotta love animation. It's currently accepted into 4 fests, but I really appreciate comments from the online community.

I'm currently freelancing for Wish Tank Studios, but would love offer my skills to those interested.

Thanks again, and enjoy!

ps. Here's the tagline if you're still not interested. "While shopping for the perfect shampoo, one man confronts his greatest fears: flying tuna cans, maniacal shopping carts, and one deadly 24 inch spicy sausage."

Awesome story and camera cuts/moves.
One thing that bothered me a little is the way he is overreacting.

Still awsome anyways. :buttrock:

Yea, I read a couple Palahniuk books while writing the script for the film. As far as the overreacting... I actually thought he was a little under-acted.... as I am still getting better at making my characters really "act". I'm glad you guys liked it though, which is great.

Very well done and entertaining short...I wouldn't be surprised to see something like this on TV, between shows or something.

Kudos!

that was rather funny, good work. The "expressions" of the shopping carts were also carried out nicely.

Nice, especially the direction. You have a good eye for camera angles and cuts.

If you haven't seen this ad, you might find it interesting:

That's great, seeing another perspective on bringing shopping carts to life. In my animation, where I suppose things were mostly real, I guess I didn't feel the need to have them bend- only at a certain time when the maw of the giant cart opens to blow products off of the shelves. It seems Framestore CFC really brought their trolley's to life, though!

Thanks for watching, and thanks for the link!
