I was ask by some songwriter friends if I could do a animation to promote there song
I have a 6year old computer which does limit what I can do. The animation was done in Daz and the credit I made in Motion4

    Mad impressed. My girlfriend really liked it. Especially the face morph at the end. Nice touch.

    Nice work, fits the music well.

    Just to mention it, the 48 Hour Film folks have started music video contests in a few cities around the world, with movie makers paired up with local bands:

    Here in Houston, the first one was last year, I received a free entry for doing a short "trailer" to promote the contest, titled "Sexy Chili":

    The contest organizer wanted me to enter the actual contest (with a song and input from a local band) and do an animated 4 - 7 minute music video. With the band appearing in it, somehow (a contest rule). In two days. I asked her to give my entry to some other team with real cameras, etc., which she did.

    I suspect your video took more than two days, huh?

    This was AWESOME, I enjoyed every moment of it. I had a moment of Holy Smokes also, one of your carnies was a almost spot on morph for my late father.

    Thanks for watching Steve ....it took 2 months ,hundreds of crashes,new hard drive and days to render a 10s scenes that most of time didn't work ...Saving up for the new Mac-pro when it comes out and working in real time so to speak.... very interesting about music vid

    I enjoyed that. Good song and the animations fit quite well. I liked the youthful transformation at the end; would have liked some more expressions while the girl was walking around, but the short vignettes gave nice candid storytelling moments and fit the lyrics of the music nicely. Thumbs up!

    OMG !.... Thank you for watching I thank you. If it would not be too much trouble could you tell me which morph this one is? If it had nerd glasses on I believe even my brother and sister would agree this looks just like our father. Thank you for the trip down memory lane, my Dad also never went outside without his trusty cap on.

    Ouch. I remember one 48 Hour Film contest where I started a 5 hour render then took a nap (having been up for 30+ hours). After about an hour, my wife woke me up and said "Its not doing anything". So plan B involved some quick switching between stills ...

    I've never used a Mac, mostly because my company used PC's and I wanted to stick with one OS. The Mac's have always sounded like better hardware, but a lot of my programs are not Mac compatible and cost way more than the hardware. "Mac Pro" sounds like the high end, which I agree is the answer for 3D animation ... I only consider fast processors, currently Core i7, since the render time can be problematic even with those. I've thought about a render farm, but Carrara with a Core i7 and medium render settings can be pretty fast.
