Little animation I did on linux. I’m pretty sure it’s mpeg1 and should play on about any player.
Edit: The video was only partially playing in windows so I’m deleting the link. I’ll try to reencode and repost later so you can see what it was supposed to look like.
In case you haven’t used that site before, you have to click the little free button on the first page, then you have to wait 10 seconds or something, then type some letters in a box and click download. It’s called movie.zip
Also, if someone on windows trys it and gets sound and visual I’d appreciate it if you told me. I’d like critiques, but right now I’d just like to know if it works on windows.
Crumbs! I used ffmpeg, maybe I can try some options. I’m surprised VLC didn’t work. I guess it didn’t work on windows media player then. I would really appreciate it if someone would try it and reply so I knew. It’s only one megabyte.
I’m not having a go at you since people need somewhere to post things but RAPIDSHARE AND PUTFILE SUCK!
Rapidshare’s system of virtually forcing people to pay to download something that was put there to be freely available is almost criminal (okay, it’s not almost criminal - but maybe it should be). I’ve lost count of the times SlowShare, I mean rapidshare, has refused to give me access to a file that’s only been up a couple of days - even after I’ve jumped through all the hoops.
Putfile’s refusal to allow users to download a movie file to their hard disc is just plain dopey and makes it impossible for some people to view the movies put there for them to see.
Maybe others could recommend better places for file hosting.
Your animation works fine on LInux, using Xine. Very good proof of concept Fireside. Timing is very good. What Linux video editor did you use?
To improve your animation, move the squirrel’s shoulders and hips in opposite direction as he walks. That way he won’t look so stiff. There’s a quick walk tutorial by George Maestri at RubberBug. See under tutorials>Classic walk tutorial. The link is http://www.rubberbug.com/tutorials.htm
It’s a very simple tutorial, but it will improve your animation a lot.
