Dr Who Animation - Evil of the Daleks 7 (2)

heh i was wondering what colour dress victoria was wearing - because i was confused when the website showed her wearing a green dress!?!

A very good effort. The rocking people have noted, and 0.36 to 0.42, a character suddenly vanishes and reappears. If this were a different camera angle, the background and Maxtible would also change. Now, having done the critique, I would say that animation is extremely difficult, especially on such a scale. That you attempted earns you a medal for bravery, that you succeeded with such quality earns you all the kudos you can handle.

Good luck with this. That type of constant unnatural movement is why much early CGI doesn't sit well with me -- I can't watch more than 15-20 minutes of "Toy Story" at a time without feeling nauseated!

the art is good but do the characters really need to look like they're perpetually drunk stumbling about like that?

wow...i hoped BBC would do something like this. very good amazing and other faltering stuff!

I'm impressed!

My one comment would be that they don't need to twitch so much. What you've done with the faces is brilliant - really, brilliant - but if they are standing still, let them.

Do you make reference to telesnaps?

Yes, I try to match the telesnaps when I can (though I generally do my own thing animationwise). There's a more complete version of this clip on my Youtube now - have a look for it - you'll see several telesnaps from the episode duplicated pretty much exactly in my work.

Brilliant stuff.  Excellent job.

I think this method of animation for the characters is better than method used on the Invasion DVD. As an animator myself I found this great stuff.

Someone should really make animated interpretations of the radio plays. I fear it's the only way we'll see the 8th doctor in action.
