Ice Warriors Rough Test - Doctor Who Animation by WhoSprites

[ReverendSyn]

I have to admit, the facial articulation IS very impressive.

Only flaw is how rigid their bodies appear. Its kind of unnerving. But I know that was never the point. Just saying. But the point here is testing the lip sync, and in that regard, it passes the test with flying colors

[herdmantwins]

more please....i love it.

[GhostOfACPast]

Awesome sauce.

[sanjouindacapo]

Have you tried rotoscoping the animation? I would love to do some scene reenactions for rotoscoping - it would make for more fluid animation, like with "The Waking Life".

[klisher]

the background doesnt really fit the scene, it doesnt look like they are fighting a glacier through that sunny window. the animation of the doctor and clent is excellent though.

[ocpmovie]

@klisher Thank you. The background is temporary.

[klisher]

@ocpmovie thats ok i could easily watch the missing episodes in this format. why dont you use wallace (of wallace and gromit) for peter sallis...i dare you ☺

[sebbrown1]

the bbc are shooting themselves in the foot by not re-animating the missing episodes for release on dvd.

[straker2]

COOL!

Wow! how did you do this? what program do you use?

[ocpmovie]

I draw the characters with a pen [these days, it's a fine point Sharpie], and refine/color them with Photoshop. I use Final Cut Pro for editing and lip sync, and although there's none in this clip I do my body animation in Moho (which is now Anime Studio).

[radioman970]

Nicely done.

[RubyCosmos]

Oh, I really hope this project takes off, and I'm not the only one.

[StinkyBurger]

Dammmmmn you guys are impressive. You should do a Buffy cartoon. Just sayin' ;)

**Check out our short films, we have something for everyone!**

[ocpmovie]

Not "guys" - just me, Garrett Gilchrist. Hi. I am a big fan of Buffy. I'd gladly do a cartoon if paid, and if the original actors were involved. =) I'd probably do it in more of a "Batman: The Animated Series" style, though. This style of animation is one I developed specifically for Doctor Who.

[Psylliumhead]

Very cool!

[Frestare]

Could you do a scene from Marco Polo or the Daleks' Masterplan next please, please, these animations are superb!

[kkiko19]

ns!!!theshadows of the face and the emotions were like real!ns!

[flashrobbie]

Cool - you've got the faces going really well.

[timelordfromhell]

this looks amazing!

[Trayusstudent1]

This was really good!!! Looking forward to seeing more!!!

[VideoNitekatt]

very well done - were the shots based on how the telesnaps looked?

[ocpmovie]

Not yet - I haven't done the backgrounds or character poses yet. I do try to duplicate the telesnaps when possible but this often requires new artwork for the bodies, and specific backgrounds.

[AlbinoCaterpillar]

Good stuff.

[exterminateallhumans]

Nice expressive scene. Like it!
