===== From chipr@niestu.com: Very cute concept, and excellent illustration of how many frames you can pack into 3 meg. But I got a bit bored after the fifteenth mile or so. ===== From agage@mines.edu: Theme is original, though the full minute of animation could perhaps have told a bit more of a story. As it is, the SAB is interesting, but to be the focus of the camera for that long seems a bit tedious. The colors and lighting are well done, though the texture on the "log" bus could be roughened up a bit. Tree trunks are green, and the motion blur seems unnecessary, but otherwise, it's pretty good. ===== From dick@buckosoft.com: Nice animation. Good overall concept and structure. I like the bounce to the bus and i love the Golden Triangles. I think the animation is long for the amount of action; that is not a lot of different stuff happens after the initial couple of seconds. Watching again, i think that even moving the camera around more (swing to the opposite side of the bus?) would be good. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: Good bobbing motion on the bus as the square wheels rotate. I like the motion blur on the wheels. Could use more variety in camera location and movement. The clouds are completely stationary -- why? ===== From karl@pemail.net: Starts off well, but scenary gets rather boring after a while. ===== From nazrat@athabascau.ca: Nice motion blur on the wheels. How many bruises did the camera guy receive from going through the trees? You may want to try for more of a story next time. ===== From bill@apocalypse.org: Amazingly long, but not a lot of interesting stuff going on. The square wheels are great though. ===== From hcousineau@usa.net: I thought that you had too much of nothing going on too much of the time. It just ended up getting boring. The animation was high quality, just, very repedative, and long. ===== From r@dmsst59.d.resnet.pitt.edu: Hmmm.... interesting terrain rolling effect but the animation seems to drag given the overall lack of content. ===== From r@dial-up7.webbernet.net: The sky is nice, although the clouds should move a bit. The ground is good except for the lines that give the tire tread look. The bus should not have been made out of a single piece. The wood and stone textures are both way too plastic. The shadowing on the license plate is irritating. The trees that pass between the bus and the camera near the end give the look of a damaged piece of film. The torus ground was a very good idea. ===== From r@auasc7-104.flash.net: A cute, somewhat original idea, but it is too monotonous. Try telling a story. Notable for originality
