  • sunscreen? XD

  • It's quite sunny there, and, with the hole in the ozone layer allowing more ultraviolet radiation through the atmosphere, it's particularly important for penguin viewers to remember their sunscreen.

  • This is great! Love the attention to detail - every direction being described as north, sun during "tonight" as it would be there throughout the summer, lack of snow at the pole (it's one of the driest places on earth), and even the "?" on the clock face - where all the timezones converge, what is the right time? :) Made me smile, well done.

  • Well done: you've listed almost everything I could think of to get in there.

    There were also a couple of items of Antarctic slang ('weather guesser', and the wonderful 'Banana Belt') that I found at coolantarctica /Community/antarctic_slang.htm

    I'm glad you enjoyed it.

  • What software did you use?

  • Blender: for creating and animating 3D models

    Audacity: sound recording, processing

    OpenOffice: scriptwriting and lipsync spreadsheet

    VirtualDub: video conversions

    Lagarith: lossless codec

    Paint Shop Pro 7: weather symbols, captions, credits, other background elements

    Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 6: editing, bluescreen

    Quicktime Pro 7: for upload to YouTube (I find QT looks better with blocks of solid colour than Xvid)

    My brain: occasional source of ideas and patience

  • @AimalCool January is summer in Antarctica, so in coastal areas, it can be +2°C

  • lol weird... but good

  • Very cute. I enjoyed that too and thought it was very clever how you correctly caught many anomalies of Antarctica as EuroAlien pointed out....two years ago.

  • these things are soooo cute and awesome1 you really have to make more. :D

  • LOL, I love it!

  • Poke that penguin. Go on Poke the Penguin.

  • In the day forecast, north is referred to three times, of course. But I'm already saying what some others have said.
