Hahahahaha I don't know how far I'll get in this competition really,

but I always find it fun to act big headed :P ... I entered this into a film competition. Very local, morten bay regional counsil.So I wouldn't say its very well known. But I knew during (high) school I really wanted to enter it. I wouldn't say, even though its my first festival entry, that it is soley focus on the animation. Actually it was more just the design, and the colours. The character design was fun, and I loved the effect I gave the little kids hair (especially the little girl :D - shes so colourful). I'd have to say that was a success.

The tools I used were photoshop (classic animation), flash(for the environment) and good ole After Effects. Though I didn't get into after effects too much, the time I had wasn't going down well. and to be honest I thought I wouldn't finish it in time. But I said NOPE!!! I had to make do with what I had already animated. And this is what happened to be set out in the end.

The story is, a girl is far out of reach, (thats why she is in the clouds) and the boy won't let go of his memories of them together. He is caught up. And to see he is alone and rather distant. But the song expresses the message. MOVE ON! right?
