If I began to use my feeble grasp of english to adequately describe how totally AWESOME that was, this post would be the length of a phone book. Suffice to say Timegirl, when they come to make the anniversary multi-doctor tale in 2013, I hope they give you a call!!!

Good (Time) Lord!!

That's absolutely astonishing!  I completely LOVE your trailer.  It's absolutely wonderful.
And it's got you 500,000 karma points for the single best thing i've seen in a very very long time... and if you don't mind I'd like to mention it on this week's Doctor's Diary!

Thank you soooo much Dale, it means such a lot to get praise from my favorite Time Lord  :D
I would be honoured if you mentioned it in the Doctors Diary!! I really would.

And thank you Chris E, I'm working my way through the Doctors - seven more to go (or maybe 8 by tomorrow  :o)

Ooh, just had a look at this animation. It's very fluid, isn't it and I think the roaming camera is a great touch.  Is this a pure animation or have you motion captured the body movements and animated the face?  I ask this because some time ago we were talking about the motion capture that your other half was dabbling in.

Anyway, fantastic piece of work!

Quote from: graybags34 on Jan 01, 2009, 11:21 pmHey stunning stuff Timegirl! I hadn't seen the first one either...so a double treat for me! Puts the Invasion animation to shame much as I thought that was very good.


I was reading this and he is right. I have seen the invasion animation and your work puts that completely to shame!

If the powers to be were ever going to fill the gaps and use some good animation then Timegirl, you should have that task.

I cannot wait to see more!

Thanks for the kind words Gemini - I'd love to do a whole episode.
I'm glad you liked it too Purple! and no, not motion captured but I shot video for reference.
(and the less said about Mr Timegirl dressing up in a black lycra suit covered in ping-pong balls, the better!)

I have to say that it would be amazing to see an episode reconstructed like that, and I'd certainly pay to see it.

The Beeb are missing a  trick here, that's for sure.  Given there's a fan work force out there that would work on this stuff for the love of it, and the talent is of this standard...
My pilot's license? That's out back in the Cessna. Or perhaps you're referring to my license to kill. Revoked. Trouble at the Kazakhstan border.

I could give you the details but then I'd have to kill you, which I can't do because my license to kill has been revoked.

How did I miss this thread before now?

Timegirl - your animations are beautiful! Simply stunning, in fact my mind is hurting thinking about how lovely they are. I love them all but the Web of Fear one really is terrific, you've really caught something there its almost spooky.

I'm constantly awed and surprised by the talent on this site - wow.

Incidentally, hows your planetscope, or whatever it is, coming along? That sounded like such a nice project.

Thank you so much meantimebob!
I do hope to complete my Time-and-Space clock in 2009. I've just moved to a new house with a workshop in the garden! yippee! so I'll soon be setting up my lathe and unpacking my tools but I need to do a few repairs to my TARDIS first and to put it back together (it's sort of flat-pack at the moment).

And thank you Rox! you've all been so kind  :)

Oi Marc...are you suggesting I was there in 1968 with my reel to reel? :o
Perhaps I was  ;) I have got a TARDIS


Just wondering if you know how the original recordist did it ;)
In the cities in the streets there's a tension you can feel,
The breaking strain is fast approaching, guns and riots.
Politicians gamble and lie to save their skins,
And the press get fed the scapegoats,
Public Enema Number One.

I know...still another six weeks to Christmas but I finished my Christmas animation early this year! (note to self: I must get out more in 2010)

I went a bit off topic this year, forgive me :)

If you don't know 2001: A Space Odyssey or The Wheel in Space - it will seem completely mad  ;D



Hope you like it  :)
Cheers
