Your inner manager did a great job of delegating all the right tasks to others so you could actualize the idea!

"Direct... don't animate!"

Thanks Pat.
Don't like the idea of having an inner manager though.

Both of your animations were enjoyable to watch with surprise endings. I liked them.

You probably aren't the first person to "go there" regarding the bathroom and bedroom scenes, but its the first I've ever seen. You should probably include a disclaimer that says : "WARNING: contains scenes that can't be un-seen!"
(Who knows how long it will be before I lose the mental image of Beefy sitting on the toilet. )

You used a number of interesting techniques here, for example the thrown axes. And I'm guessing you made a lot of the models, like the swords Beefy used to dispatch the terrorist...?

I liked the reindeer and sleigh.. haven't seen that in the store, so I'm guessing you figured out a way to get that into Muvizu too! Looks like you overcame a lot of obstacles and learning curve to make this video!


Tell us a little more about how this idea developed... sounds like it was a collaboration?

Posts: 37 		Hey Pat thanks for the feedback ! Sorry for the late reply I left for holiday right after posting and only came back now.

Regarding the idea I'm working in a security firm, I was having coffee with three of my colleagues wondering how we could wish a happy new year to our clients. And somehow we wandered very far into a world of crazy where we imagined a terrorist disguised as Santa Claus, naming the poor guy "Abou Al-Papa Noel (in French)". I can't say for sure who first had that idea (we are french working in a security company, so terrorism was kind of our bread and butter in 2016). But that video was a tribute to that crazy coffee time.

I had to imports tons of assets indeed.

What I thought might be a first was the part (which would still need some fine tuning) where Abou Al Santa is on his sleigh without both his legs trying to escape with irons in his hands which was a stupid reference to an old Lucky-Luke comic (I'll try to find the ref). Still a lot of obstacles to overcome but thanks to you guys I'm making progress.
