[ratkenrat]

that was real nice

[TheBabbleBeast]

@ratkenrat Appreciated!

[TheBabbleBeast]

@MrOwlDre Haha! Cool! For some reason this got spammed - I'm unspamming it!

[claymationstudios100]

@lationix21599 not all dinos are related to birds

[LexProductions99]

Great job! I love the morphing and smooth movements. See my claymation videos:)

[lationx21599]

@TheBabbleBeast no....

[lationx21599]

cool, but y did u make his tongue stick out, dinos don't stick their tongues out like lizards.

[TheBabbleBeast]

@lationx21599 They don't? I did say it was something that 'looks like' a dinosaur.... It's claymation. There are no rules. Besides, how do you know dinos don't stick out their tongues like lizards?

[MilesRoseClaymation]

Nice job! I'm guessing that you animated the dinosaur being squished into a ball, and then just reversed the clip?

[TheBabbleBeast]

@MilesRoseClaymation You guessed right! That was a lot of fun to do - kind of sad, too, destroying the dino but worth it for the effect.

[SuperBirdAndre]

ROAR!!!!:D:D:D

[TheBabbleBeast]

@SuperBirdAndre  RRRrrrrr!!! :o)

[SuperBirdAndre]

@TheBabbleBeast I'm not bored, my comment was bored:) LOL

[SuperBirdAndre]

It's Jurassic Morph!! LOL! It's Dino Kong! LOL! I dunno... I'm just bored:)

[TheBabbleBeast]

@SuperBirdAndre You bored??? No way!!! :o)

[lationx21599]

@TheBabbleBeast Cuz dinos r more related to birds than lizards

[TheBabbleBeast]

@lationx21599 I suppose this begs the question: 'do birds stick their tongues out like lizards?'

[lab49]

That is Awsome! Really smooth and nice

[TheBabbleBeast]

@lab49 Thank you! :o)

[SineSnus]

How do you reverse it? Do you need a speciel programe or something like that?

[TheBabbleBeast]

@SineSnus You can use a compositing program that can reverse a sequence of frames, and there are free renaming programs that could work. A simple but time consuming way would be to manually renumber them. Say you have 100 frames called 'fun', start with the last frame and RENAME [to avoid conflict] and RENUMBER it 'veryfun001'. Then, the next frame, 'fun099' would be 'veryfun002', and so on) - that's the 'easiest'. Whatever you do, always backup your frames in case you make a mistake ;o)

[claymaster567]

nice dino model and very lifelike movements an voice awsome would be good to see it standing ect. keep it up

[TheBabbleBeast]

@claymaster567 :o)!! I would like to see it stand, too! One way would require an armature inside it...  or I could blend two different models together. I'd need a lot more clay!

[SchussFilms]

:D This is so awesome!! You deserve so many more viewers!

[TheBabbleBeast]

@SchussFilms That's very kind! I have so much fun doing these :)

[MrPlastiScene]

That was AMAZING :D well done - keep it up ;)

[TheBabbleBeast]

@MrPlastiScene Thanks! I hope to come up with more.

[MrPlastiScene]

@TheBabbleBeast I'm glad, and I look forward to them :D

[PepijnPaint]

That's just awsome!

[TheBabbleBeast]

@PepijnPaint  Thank you, PepijnPaint!

[CheesyMcLego]

Nifty

[heroicham]

wow this is epic, how did you do that title morph??? I don't know how you're so good but keep it up :D

[TheBabbleBeast]

@heroicham Nice comment, thanks! The title morph is just a little trick where you turn it into an alpha channel so you can overlay it on the animation, and then you animate the scale factor.

[TheSJproduction]

Wow!!!! I really liked this!!!! Amazing Job!!

[TheBabbleBeast]

@TheSJproduction Thank you, glad you liked it :o) 

[TheSukmoto]

wow, this is awesome! one suggestion is to increase the frames per second, it looked a little slow. nice job!

[TheBabbleBeast]

@TheSukmoto Thanks for the comment! If I want fast, bird-like movements, shooting on singles would be a good idea and then I could time it out better. I shot this on twos because it's 'easier' and I'm kinda lazy! ;) One of these days I ought to try singles. By the way, I always shoot 24 fps because it divides easier than 30.

[LlamaBoyProductions]

that was incredible! the title and the trasnformation, it was done reversed right?

it was amazing!

[TheBabbleBeast]

@LlamaBoyProductions :) Yes, I reversed it. It would have been almost impossible to do it the other way around. I'm just experimenting with different techniques, and I think this worked out pretty good.

[TheSapple]

wow that was amazing you should put that video in my creating characters contest........... if you want to hahahhaa seeya

[TheAwesomekman]

Nice sculpture! Also the transition between the intro title and the video was sick!

[TheBabbleBeast]

@TheAwesomekman The whole thing was very fun to make :)

[Sukomoto00]

very cool i like it a lot yeah he looks very smooth

[TheBabbleBeast]

@Sukomoto00 :D Thanks!
