good cinematographic elements. i'm impressed with how much you can do with the game.

however, some of the 3D elements (I assume they are mods) look very photosourced and stand out (not in a good way).

The music is what really made this piece work. Most of the visuals are pretty nice (agreed on photo elements being weak), but its a shame some of the animation couldn't be better suited... the walk cycle for instance at 2:42 looks pretty goofy in comparison to the seriousness that's being conveyed.

Also, that shovel just appears out of nowhere, perhaps you could have had her stumble over it, if the animations available, so that the viewer is brought to attention that the item exists.

Well that boggled my mind. @_@

Because I'm no genius at programming or animating, I'll just go on and say that this is the first time I've ever (really) heard Montori, I think. Past the demo reel. =p I have to admit, she's really good at this role. o.o

I KNEW there was something 'off' about that part but I couldn't figure out what it was. Hope Ben finds a way to make it smoother in his next project!

@PT: Aww, thanks! I guess I need to find some more roles around here so people stop listening to my demo, but I'm really proud of this one.

Thank you for all the comments; I really appreciate it. I'm a novice at Blender; it explains the mods. (heh heh)

This is one of the last movies that I will make with The Movies game, there is going to be one more film; I moved on to iClone 4 Pro. Animations like the walk at 2:42; there's quite a lot of those in the game and I'm a bit fed up with them.


Anyways, sorry for the ramble, I appreciate the comments.
