Hello everyone, and thanks for all the kind words. I'm letting everyone know that I've re-posted the Knightfall short, but without audio since Warner Music Group kindly forced my video from being displayed because of the use of the audio track. I think it got processed via Youtube at a higher resolution, so I think it looks a little better than the first post.

sympathetic lol?

[afterlife2k]

Yeah, it sounds cheesy, but really, it is, the male chorus gives this sort of feeling of sympathy, especially the closing shot. Unfortunately, without the real audio track, you don't actually get this effect.

what is this "The Animation Program"?

[afterlife2k]

I get a lot of requests as to what animation program I used, and I'm not sure if everyone gets it, but I left out that piece of information on purpose. I spent a good solid month searching the animation program that was right for me, and each one will be different depending on the needs of the animator. I know it's a simple question, but I just choose not to answer it.

u said the same thing twice, i am glad i finished it and i am glad i did

[afterlife2k]

Actually, that's what I meant.  "I'm glad I did it" as opposed to not have even starting it in the first place.

@Thegrcornholio What I think he's trying to say is that he chose not to answer that question because alot of people are too focussed on what program and tools they should be using when really they should be using what they have and not worrying about it (I started with just pen and paper). When the time comes they feel they need better equipment they should research it for them selves and find whats best for them. No amount of equipment will increase your skill, only dedication and discipline.

@afterlife2k So what you're saying is that because you didn't find that animation program easely, others shouldn't either. You ain't gonna get very far with that attitude.

And yes, my English is bad.

@afterlife2k so you don't want to tell us 'cause you don't want us to make animations better than yours, don't you?

[edgbarrowwight]

you are awesome, i'd ask you to teach me, but im sure you're busy

[tjmixmasta]

GREAT WORK.

And it seems we may get a taste of the Nightfall arc with the next Batman live-action.
