  13. Hey there, just saw a link to this and watched it a couple times in a row because it was so impressive.
    Just wondering what programs you use to make something like this. I'm looking into studying animation and this sort of thing is really what I'm interested in.
    I take it you guys are based in London. Where did you guys get training for animation? At this point I'm living in WA, Australia but I have potentially the opportunity to study in Sydney or England. Do you have any recommendations about good courses or schools in England or Australia?

  15. Thanks everyone for the kind words, now I'm looking forward to the next
    Nathan: Yeah, we are London based. We studied the character animation training program post grad diploma at central St martins. There are others, bournemouth has a really good course, so those Dundee (Scotland) Duncan of Jordanstone. You never said Anything about France but Gobelins school of art is deadly, as is superficom ( I think that's the spelling) hope that helps.

  19. Fabien: Thnaks fabien. Really appreciate the comment.

    Zeitwolf: Soulful, thats quite a compliment. Makes me feel good that we created a film that can make someone feel that way

    Ahbob: We used After Fx, Flash for the animation Maya for the ball which was then rotoscoped in flash. Photoshop, water colours, markers for the BG.

  26. This is a really great short! :) I find it very inspiring to know that all those that worked on this over the last couple of years did it all because this is what they love. :) If you have people who care and love what they do then you can achieve anything! You give me confidence in pushing ahead with my own projects. Thanks for sharing.
