Have a great Day !

Olympics 2008 Monkey Movie - BBC Sport

hey guys just found this over the internet... it's BBC Sport's marketing campaign and titles for the forthcoming Olympic Games which are based upon the traditional Chinese folklore 'Journey to the West'. The animation and music were specially produced by Jamie Hewlett and Damon Albarn...

what i liked about it was the fresh feel to it... beautiful layouts, great characters, nice animation!
a reminiscence of Kung fu panda!!! check it out! to find more about it, here's the website http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/olympics/monkey/default.stm

WaaHy Sooo serriiiiooooous

Helllooo Monssteerss,
Damn. Has ne one watched dark knight? If u havent , Get the hell out and watch it. Wat a stunning performance by heath ledger as JOKER. Woooooww. I fell from my seat. After a long time m watching such a brilliant performance. He s insane. Bloody insane. If u watch the movie, u ill be waiting for joker to enter the screen. After watching it , i had gone mad. Every one is talking his performance and people who ve been watching it are goin nuts. Well thats wat i call "GETTING INTO THE CHARACTER". We really ve to appreciate his dedication and commitment towards the movie and i felt so bad after hearing tht he died. God bless his family and friends. "HEATH U WERE GR8"

cheers

Swing thing, somersault bling ! ;-)











Hey, Monsters...my entry for CGT session...sorry for putting this awful animation here, but really want to know your views on the somersault thing...me and my friend had a long discussion on this...he says that the somersault will be around his head...meaning that, his head will act as the center of rotation (say, pivot point) during the act...but i say what i done is right...cause he his throwing his body...something like this snowmobile stunt i saw...hope you guys are getting what i am trying to say...please guide...
