Freakin awesome clip dude... just love the expressions, lip sync and poses... and great idea too! Guess ur hard work paid off pretty good. btw whats your name?

Prasad said...

Greatly executed bro ! ...really like the idea ...liked the way you have shown contrast in both the characters ...that suspense buildup ...and that sudden change in 'norman' character ...everything is just great ...again i am amazed by your idea, how you split the same dialog as said by some third guy ...keep going man ! ...you rock !!!

KASANA said...

So now you know what we expect in second when first is like this.

hey dapoon, as i said earlier, this is one of the best clip i ve ever seen in takshaa, and m sure ur gonna win tht i pod nano for this. Beautifull story telling. Loved the way u started the story of norman, great build up and great execution, this will surely go to best video at monsters. I would suggest you to just polish blake and go through norman once. keep him crisp and get to the pose with a BAAANG, this would add to the character as he s trying to scare him off and at the end, make norman really gets scared and shaky . This will add contrast.

dude this is my fav piece of work and this has inspired me a lot. No kiddin:)

Dapoon said...

hey thanks a lot bro! u inspire me like TONS!! and i'm just so honoured to know that YOU are inspired from my clip! :)
thanks for liking it so much bro. i'll surely give one more round of polish before submitting it for the demoreel.
and as far as winning the ipod is concerned, i dont really know... but i sure wudnt mind getting it though! lol :D

lets hope the next assignment too comes out just as good! fingers and toes CROSSED! :D

Hi Partners long time no C :)

Looks like there r some really cool stuffs happening.

Dapoon Saw ur work, but was able to c it only once. Still cool.... Very nice work. I am happy to see some really good works coming in.

Well, For the comments I hav


1. Guess you will need to polish the timing over all. As right now it looks a little firm. Break the joint and concentrate on the overlaps.

2. I like the story telling but at places especially when there r two guys (at the start) who r scared and the 2nd 1 try's to play a prank on the other. i.e. The part where norman goes off the screen needs to buy time. This part isn't very clear. May be Story wise or the composition wise you could do something?

I just saw it once and am not able to c this again Some F*k up on my browser, so can't really check that up.

Anyways, great going dude. Keeeep Animating...!

Please do check my Blog for two new dialogs ;)
