New Hippo Puppet

After much weeping and gnashing of teeth, we finally got a good cast for our new hippo puppet. It only took us 9 tries. Yikes!

Here are a couple of images of him in our scene...


Cevin did a test animation of him running up the hill last night, and that went well. Tonight we are testing out the birds, and then if we just animate our eyeballs out we should have some form of a finished film for the spring showcase. It's going to be an interesting few weeks!

Good job kiddos - see you soon!

This has such a great look to it. I think it would be real cool to do a kid's picture book like this. Great illustrative flair!

New puppet has an adorable profile, by the way.

You gotta post the bird animation tests. Those are so great too. I am so excited for this project.

Wow, honey, just catching up with all this. NINE tries?! I hope they give a persistence award! I bet there was a lot of weeping and gnashing. I can't wait to see it!
