Dear Sweet Emma - Monday, March 26th, 9:30pm Buffalo/Niagara Marriot, Screen 2


 

As the search is given up for Emma's latest husband, Tucker, a private look reveals that Emma has a secret and uncontrollable dark side. The sweetest angel and favorite citizen of Fishtickle would indeed pose an uncomfortable dilemma for all if her problem were ever found out.

Modeling and animation was produced in Lightwave 3d. After Effects was used for compositing. Editing was done on a Video Toaster System. Out of Our Minds Images produced the piece from concept to final in the course of two months with a six
person staff.

   
     

Production Notes
"Bird Legs"
When I first started animating the bird he had really short, stumpy almost non-existent legs. I worked on his first spin and jump for a full day and was getting nowhere. He was about as graceful as a moose doing an impression of an albatross. Thankfully, John went in and gave him long, slender ballerina legs. Needless to say, he was much more enjoyable to work with and far less painful to watch!
