That was VERY cute. Looks like a lot of good work in there, Michaela. Must take a lot of patience! Keep it up!

thanks very much!

Knowing how time consuming animation is, I have to congratulate you on the effort you've obviously put in. Very well executed. Of course, I wouldn't be doing my job properly if I didn't offer to extend my services as a music composer should you need anything written for future works :)

James Holzrichter

That was adorable, I liked the angry fist.

Lorna Baillie

Charming and impressive.

Lydia Mulvey

Great work. I'm in awe of anyone who has the patience and commitment to make a stop-motion animation. I particularly loved the hand claps and the fact that he had the full compliment of finger and thumbs. My only criticism was that it was a little dark. That may be my computer screen but if not, maybe a brighter spotlight would be in order. But these complaints are minor. Overall it was a charming and heart-warming piece.

Very nice. It needs more anticipation before the movements and maybe a few longer holds to break up the action. Nice looking puppet too!

Michaela Andrews

thanks very much guys! i'll definitely keep you in mind grant. The darkness of the film has been something some people have mentioned and I think it depends what it is viewed on as most computers seem to make it look fine but then when i tried playing it on a projector it came out really dark :/ still looking into that!

Will Baker

Very Well done! I felt the music selection fit perfectly with the character and flow.

Jeffrey Brayne

The animation was excellent. The lighting and scene composition equally good. Great job.

David M. Treadway

Michaela, I loved your stop motion project. It was funny, entertaining, emotional and just a lot of fun.
